... Is this thing on?
It's obviously been a bit since I posted anything other than the Man Calendar. I don't really want to come at you with excuses, but the fact of the matter is that this blog has gotten pushed down my neverending list of things that I need to do—and, in complete honesty, things that I want to do.
I love this space. I don't want to call it quits. But I'm not entirely sure what to do with it. I'm giving it some thought, but it might take me a while to come up with something grand and exciting. So consider this post a past-due announcement of an indefinite hiatus (with the exception of the Man Calendar; those will go up on time as usual).
In addition to a "state of the blog," I also wanted to play a bit of catch-up here. My backlog of series updates has become a bit daunting; consider this a lightning round.
| Deadpool 2 | Solo | Ocean's 8 |
| ★★★★ | ★★ | ★★★★½ |
| Hey Ricky Baker! Wade vs. Cable Ness deserved better | Nicholson, not Ford Pretty unnecessary Chewie is my fave | Holy hot ladies Great sequel to the franchise Danny Ocean who? |
| Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom | Ant-Man and the Wasp | Skyscraper |
| ★★★ | ★★★★½ | ★★★ |
| Life finds a way (again) Justice for the dinosaurs No one learns lessons | Badass girl power Much-needed MCU laughs Stinger, though—HOW DARE | The Rock saves the day Do not watch if you hate heights Not much dialogue |
| Crazy Rich Asians | A Simple Favor | |
| ★★★★ | ★★★ | |
| Delightful rom-com Crazy beautiful people I want more like this | Unexpected plot Unexpectedly funny Not like the trailer | |
- March + April | Top read: Obsidio (The Illuminae Files #3) by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman
- May + June | Top read: Neanderthal Opens the Door to the Universe by Preston Norton
- July + August | Top read: The Rook (The Checquy Files #1) by Daniel O'Malley
TL;DR: Thank you for sticking with me while I've been flaky. I hope to be back soon.
Until then, you can find me over at Forever Young Adult, and on the various social medias. *waves toward the upper-right corner of the blog*
<3!
