It’s no secret that I’m a proud queer woman and connoissuer of LGBT+ movies, books, music, and television. I like to absorb media that I feel normalizes and validates the queer experience, which is why I was so excited to watch Happiest Season last December. A normal Christmas movie about normal lesbians? Count me in!…

Read MoreWhat’s On My Reading List?
As a self-identified dectuple-booker (someone who reads ten books at once,) there is always something new on my reading list. This usually happens when I go to Barnes and Noble to pick out one new book, but I realize there are about 7,569 books I’d ideally like to read as well. So I add them…
Read MoreInterviewing Wendelin Van Draanen
Hi friends! This is actually an interview I conducted and posted on Analog about two weeks ago, but I wanted to post it here as well for my personal following to read as well. Feel free to like and share. And thank you Wendelin for your time and thoughtful answers! Often in life, there are books you…
Read MoreWhat I’m Reading Right Now
If you clicked onto this article thinking reading four books was a lot, I have news for you: I’m actually reading twelve books. These are just the new additions to the other eight I was already reading. I’ve always been someone who loved to read multiple books at once, and every time I find a…
Read MoreMy Favorite “Bad” Movies
I’ve seen my fair share of bad movies, particularly since I grew up in a pretty sheltered household and I wasn’t allowed to watch a lot of the movies my friends were watching. With that being said, this left a lot of room for awkward, early 2000s, family-oriented films (with the exception of The Room–…
Read MoreTen Famous Films I Still Haven’t Seen
Not having seen too many notable things is something I am teased about relentlessly from my friends and family. The last time I visited my boyfriend’s family, his mom was literally shocked that I’d never seen Pretty Women or The Town, so those were the movies we watched during my stay. In my defense, I…
Read MoreRemember Us to Life
Slowly but surely, we are making our way through all of Regina Spektor’s fantastic studio albums (I believe there’s only two to go after this!) Today, of course, we are tearing apart her most recent album, the 2017 goodie Remember Us to Life. Regina, if you’re reading this, we need a new album pronto! Per…
Read MoreWhat I’m Reading Right Now
With the current circumstances, I’ve had a lot of time to crack down and get some much-needed reading done. I’m the kind of person who loves to re-read books, so if some of these titles look familiar, that’s why! However, there are several new books that I’m super excited to dive into right now. I…
Read MoreMy Favorite Coming of Age Novels
