Review: Happy Halloween! Coraline is One of the Creepiest Kids’ Books Ever (Spoilers)

I first read Coraline by Neil Gaiman in the spring of 2020 because I had seen the movie a million times and thought to myself "Hold up. It's a book?! Well, guess what I'm doing today." From then on, I have watched pretty much every theory about Coraline on YouTube that there is and the... Continue Reading →

Review: Beren and Luthien was the Best Romance I’ve Read Since Pride and Prejudice. (Spoilers)

Happy Day-Before-Halloween, tanukis! As you've seen in the title, this review is about Tolkien's epic romance, Beren and Luthien, which may seem like a strange choice for those who haven't read it for a (sorta) Halloween post, but don't worry. You'll see why I choose this book in a sec. So settle down, grab your... Continue Reading →

Review: Romeo and Juliet: How Not to Handle Dating.

I realize Romeo and Juliet is one of the greatest love stories ever written and has been adapted into play after highschool play and movie after cheesy Halmark movie, but just why? When I read it, I thought, "Aww, that's cute. The joys of being young and dumb...and they killed themselves." Now obviously, this is... Continue Reading →

Review: The Silver Chair and The Last Battle. Things Start Getting Whacky. (Spoilers)

The Silver Chair and The Last Battle are the last two books in the Chronicles of Narnia series and as implied in the title of this review, they are the whackiest books in the series, not because of the characters or the adventure, but rather because of the theology that was presented. While they are... Continue Reading →

Blog/Review: One Sentence Book/Movie Summaries.

As you could probably tell, I read a lot of books and watch a bit of T.V. That being the case, obviously I had to do some sort of book summary in this format. Hope you enjoy. #1: Lord of the Rings Group of people spend several months trying to return jewelry. #2: The Hobbit... Continue Reading →

Review: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader Sinks the Movie. (Spoilers)

I’m pretty sure that when Disney was adapting the Chronicles of Narnia movies, their main goal was to milk the adventures of the Pevensies for all they were worth. The reason why I say this is because while Disney could’ve gone in chronological order (which I think maybe would’ve been the better and possibly more... Continue Reading →

Review: Prince Caspian vs The Movie. Make Narnia Great Again.

As with my review of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, since Prince Caspian was adapted into a movie by Disney, I have to give both the book and movie a review. While I will admit that the Prince Caspian is my favorite adaptation because it seems more serious than the first movie, it... Continue Reading →

Review: The Horse and His Boy. Horse Theft is Okay as Long as They Can Talk. (Spoilers)

I've actually read The Horse and His Boy three times; first when I originally read (or tried to read) The Chronicles of Narnia, second when I was in 4th or 5th grade, and finally when I was reading it to do this review and catch up on Narnia lore. While The Horse and His Boy... 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 →
