Review: Why is Pokemon a Kids’ Show?

I just want to start this off with a disclaimer: this is in no way supposed to be an in-depth (or super serious) review of Pokemon. I've only watched a few episodes of Pokemon: Black and White and played Pokemon Go a few times. I have by no means watched every single episode in the... Continue Reading →

Review: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe vs. the Movie (Spoilers)

In my quest to catch up on The Chronicles of Narnia series because Greta Gerwig is coming like the White Witch to destroy it and turn it into her own icy, feminist wonderland, I re-read the book and watched the original movie that came out in 2008 to see how well they stood together. Thankfully,... Continue Reading →

Review: Jane Eyre is an Idiot (Spoilers)

I read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte (the sister of Emily Bronte, another romance novelist of the time) for the first time towards the end of my freshman year and I learned something about women that I had never thought of before. Us ladies buy romance novels because we seem to think we can fix... Continue Reading →

Review: The Trials of Apollo Openly Marked the End of Sanity (Spoilers)

If you thought my review of The Heroes of Olympus was bad, this one is going to be much worse. The Trials of Apollo was the gayest series in the Riordanverse (next to Magnus Chase and The Sun and the Star) and while it stuck farily well to the plot (thankfully it had a plot),... Continue Reading →

Review: Heroes of Olympus: The Series Where Things Started Going Wrong (Spoilers).

If you've read my review on Percy Jackson and the Olympians that I posted last week, you'll realize that I have a lot to say about this series and its spinoffs. While the original series was really good and is easily one of my favorite YA reads of all time, The Heroes of Olympus was... Continue Reading →

Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians was the Start of an Era. (Spoilers)

From the ages of 12-14, this series was basically my entire world. All I would ever talk about was "Percy Jackson this" and "Percy Jackson that". I would not shut up about the Greek gods and their stories. However, now that I'm older and have seen how chaotic the Percy Jackson fandom is, I have... Continue Reading →

Review: Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. All Hail King Elessar! (Spoilers)

This is the best book in the series and is where we finally get a wrap up to the epic saga that started with the Fellowship. The world of Middle Earth has finally been saved once and for all, and we get some awesome lore drops in the Appendices that sorta explain (but not in... Continue Reading →

Review: The Children of Hurin. Turin Turambar Needs a Hug and Some Time in Therapy (Spoilers).

The Children of Hurin, written by J.R.R. Tolkien in the late 1910's and published in 2007 by his son, Christopher, is one of the three great tales of the First Age. While it is one of the great tales, it's also the most tragic tale in the entire legendarium, and showcases best the heroic struggle... Continue Reading →

Review: Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Eowyn Wants to Kick Butt, Sam Gets to Use Frodo’s Cool Flashlight, Treebeard is Slow, Sauron is Somewhat Funny, and I Now Have Arachnophobia (Spoilers).

After reading Fellowship of the Rings, I obviously didn't stop to take a break, take some time to process the greatness of what I had read, maybe grab a snack. Nope. I immediately jumped to The Two Towers, because patience, what's that? I had made it my mission at that point to absorb all Tolkien... Continue Reading →

Review: The Magician’s Nephew. The Silmarillion Origin Story of Narnia (Spoilers).

After hearing the unfortunate and deeply angering news that Greta Gerwig is going to destroy The Chronicles of Narnia series, I have decided to re-read the books so that when the gut-wrenching time comes where I have to review her monstrosity, I'll at least know what I'm talking about when it comes to the lore....
