Before I begin this review, I just wanted to say the Black Lives Matter protests (I've been part of one, but that doesn't paint me as a hero) going on right now are so strong, so united against the racism, police brutality, corruption, fear and downright hatred that has terrorized and murdered people of colour...

Why “The Hate U Give” is my favourite book
When I say this is my favourite book, I mean it in terms of every book I've read in my life. There was a book other than this that got me addicted to reading in the first place. There have been books that have made me realize different things about myself. But I will never... Continue Reading →
Little Women (2019) Movie Review
My sister and mother have been wanting to see Little Women for ages. So as a family we finally rented it and gave it a go, and like star Saoirse Ronan's other recent starring-role dramas, Brooklyn & Lady Bird, it's a deep and appreciative take on people just like you and me, differences between timelines...

Capone (2020) Movie Review
I was rooting for this movie for one reason: director Josh Trank. I really enjoyed his found-footage anti-superhero eye-opener, Chronicle, and even though I was far from giving a recommendation to his attempt to reboot the Fantastic Four, I didn't find it deserving of the backlash and ridicule it got. Apparently after that film was... Continue Reading →
Archenemies by Marissa Meyer Book Review
Will Marissa Meyer ever write a bad book? Cause this is her sixth book in a row I’ve thoroughly recommended, and her quality hasn’t yet shown a dip of any sort. This is the sequel to Renegades, taking place in a world where, well, some are born with superpowers. Some use them for everyday simple... Continue Reading →
1917 Movie Review
A million years ago, another war movie, American Sniper, was my choice for worst film of 2015, surpassing even a film I walked out on. While at the same time I knew for some people it was a 2014 film, released in some parts of the world that December and worldwide by January. This is... Continue Reading →
Top 10 Best Movies of 2019
Happy New Year everyone! These are my favourite films released this year. There are some big films I didn't have the time to see, because I also review books, I'm still in university, and I have a lot of responsibilities. Still, I'm proud of this Top 10 (which actually has a few movies with low... Continue Reading →
Last of Her Name by Jessica Khoury Book Review
This is an example of a pretty-much equal feeling of optimism and uncertainty. I liked a lot about this book, especially its ending, but its aftertaste kind of rings hollow. Stacia Androva’s home planet has had the resources to care for her and her two best friends Clio and Pol. Their energy is given through... Continue Reading →
Dark Phoenix (2019) Movie Review
Having started movie reviewing in 2014, there were a lot of series I probably should’ve caught up on, like the MCU and Batman movies, maybe the Evil Dead movies, possibly the X-Men movies. I’ve now seen every X-Men movie since 2014, including the Deadpool movies (well, minus that Once Upon a Deadpool that got barely... Continue Reading →
