Life of a Reader
Although neither of them had ever called their meeting a case of love at first sight, they’d both agreed it had certainly been a case of “pretty darn sure at first hour.” A First for Everything Sahara, starring Steve Zahn and Matthew McConaughey, is one of my favorite movies. We watch it as a family quite frequently. […]
It’s been so long since I finished my 24-hour readathon that I no longer have my time stamps for finishing my books, and I also forgot to write down the sixth book that I read. 🙂 Suffice it to say, I had a super fun time setting up this readathon for myself (even though it was three months ago . […]
My First Comic Book I’ve never liked the idea of comics. Visually they almost always give me a headache. Neither do I typically care for the methods of storytelling used in comics. However, even the greatest critic can come across something surprising and be the better for it. Cue Breaking Cat News! Have you ever wondered what cats are thinking […]
Cinderella (2021) Starring: Camilla Cabello, Minnie Driver, Idina Menzel, James Corden Director: Kay Cannon Rating: PG for suggestive material and language Have We Been Here Before? I haven’t worked on my Cinderella reviews in awhile. In fact, I set them aside long enough for someone (specifically Amazon) to make another movie. Oh joy. I debated for several days before watching this movie. […]
Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted. And experience is often the most valuable thing you can offer . . . Six Months What would you do if you were told the cancer was back and that you had 3-6 months to live? I would plan every trip I’ve been wanting to make, visit […]
And We’re Back Welcome back everyone! Here we are another week into my 24-hour readathon and I’ve only finished one more book, unfortunately. But that’s mostly because I read and finished one book, and then started two at once. 🙂 But let me quickly share the one book I did read with you. 1. The Guardian by Dee Henderson […]
Monkey See, Monkey Do My two most favorite bookstagrammers recently did 24-hour readathons, in which they read for as much time as they could in a single 24 hour span of time. It was very fun to “tag along” and watch how they did. I was also inspired to try something similar for myself. I didn’t think I would be able […]
Without Remorse (2021) Starring: Michael B. Jordan, Guy Pearce Director: Stefano Sollima Rating: R for language, sexual content, violence Syrians and Russians and Missiles (oh my!) I’ve been waiting to watch this new movie from Amazon Studios for quite some time. My brother watched it and liked it, but didn’t necessarily care to watch it again, at least in the […]
Almost to the Finish Hello everyone! I’ve got two Christopher Nolan movies left to watch – Tenet and The Dark Knight Rises – but I’m not quite ready to write full movie reviews. So . . . I decided I’d give a little update of how my Nolan-binge is going in place of a full review. Long story short: I’m fascinated, forever […]
Indeed, the safest road to Hell is the gradual one – the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts . . . A Problem of Doctrine Over the years, the Christian Evangelical community has expressed concern and shown reservation over the doctrine of C.S. Lewis. Oh don’t worry, they acknowledge and heavily […]
