HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! Well, it has been another hectic, emotionally draining week and I haven’t gotten a single book read from start to finish. I did start reading The Deathless Girls and I’m honestly not sure if I like it so far. I didn’t think I’d finish it this week, but alas. […]
Happy Saturday, everyone! Over the last month I didn’t watch quite as much as the previous month. There was just SO much going on! Luckily, I didn’t watch anything I hated. There wasn’t as much spooky in spooky month as expected. Instead there was a bit of nostalgia and an evil(ish) queen, among other things. […]

HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! This week has once again been super busy and stressful. You may have noticed that I’ve continued to be scarce around the blog.

Happy November, bookworms! It has been a rough week full of stress and anxiety, but I was determined to post more than twice this week. To keep things as fun as I could, I wanted to talk about movies that I love, but haven’t read the books they’re based on. Shame, I know! Here are […]

HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! It has been another wild and crazy week in our house and I’ve accomplished not very much around the blogosphere. We had appointments almost every day and next week is shaping up to be pretty much the same. I really, truly love and appreciate you guys for staying with […]
Let’s continue spooky season with TV villains! I have a feeling that some people will disagree with my choices, so let me explain. To me, a favorite villain has to be one that I don’t just hate. If a villain is 100% despicable with no redeeming qualities, I don’t love them. They aren’t a fave. […]

HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! It has certainly been one of those weeks – the busy kind that are so overwhelming you can’t find the energy to do much else (you know, like reading, blogging, etc.). I’ve had appointments scheduled every single day this week and Saturday was crammed full of candle making and […]
Early last year I shared my three favorite podcasts at the time. Since then some things have stayed the same, but some have changed. I thought a year and a half was plenty of time to share my updated top three list! As you will see, I definitely have a favorite kind of listen. LAST […]

Today’s Topic: Extraordinarily Weird Book Titles Happy Tuesday! I will admit up front that I legitimately had no idea what to do with today’s topic. What does it mean?

HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! Spooky season is in full swing and I have SO many horror movies to watch! Unfortunately things have been way too busy in my house to sit still for very long. My candle shop has been having a sale and I am overwhelmed. 🙂 I can’t wait to wrap […]

Today’s Topic: Top Ten Eight SPOOKIEST books to read in October Happy (SPOOKY) Tuesday! It’s that time of the year and I’m totally ignoring this week’s TTT topic (it really wasn’t speaking to me) in favor of a topic that’s a bit more creepy. I often see people’s horror recs and wonder why they’re mostly made up […]
