Review of ‘Greythorne’ (Bloodleaf #2)
Synopsis Brimming with deliciously mysterious magic, political intrigue, and a passionate heroine who will do anything to save the ones she loves--this highly anticipated sequel to Bloodleaf, praised as "enchanting, visceral, and twisty" by Laura Sebastian, won't disappoint. Princess Aurelia's life is upended when the kingdom she thought she saved falls to ruin, a loved one is tragically killed in a shipwreck, and her home country turns against her. With no place left to call her own, Aurelia returns to Greythorne Manor--her best friend's family mansion--only to find that Greythorne has sinister secrets of its own. With enemies closing in on all sides, Aurelia is caught in a mad fight to protect the only people she has left--her family. In her darkest moments, when all seems grim, will Aurelia find a spark of hope from a love she thought long lost?

Review of ‘Storm and Fury’ (The Harbinger #1)
Synopsis Jennifer L. Armentrout is a master of weaving rich contemporary realism with magic and mayhem. Her characters will grab hold of your heart and refuse to let go. Every page left me wanting more.--New York Times bestselling author Brigid Kemmerer Meet Trinity Marrow, a girl with an explosive secret whose hiding place has just been discovered... Eighteen-year-old Trinity may be going blind, but she can see and communicate with ghosts and spirits. Her gift is the reason she's been in hiding for years in a compound guarded by Wardens--shape-shifters who protect humankind from demons. If the demons discover the truth about Trinity, they'll devour her to enhance their powers. When Wardens from another clan arrive with reports that something is killing both demons and Wardens, Trinity's world implodes. Not the least because one of the outsiders is the most annoying and fascinating person she's ever met. Zayne has secrets of his own--but working together becomes imperative once demons breach the compound and Trinity's secret comes to light. To save her family and maybe the world, she'll have to trust Zayne. But all bets are off as a supernatural war is unleashed...

My Review of "The Meg"
The Meg never really appealed to me even though it's technically a monster disaster movie. I generally take the time to watch these movies because they're dumb fun but there's something about this movie that didn't really interest me. It's weird because it has all the elements that I usually ask for in a disaster movie. When I finally got to watch it, I wasn't disappointed. I still had the fun that I usually expect to have with these type of movies.

Jaws - A Movie Review
You’re going to need a bigger boat. I’m not kidding, I hear the music. Caught out of the ocean in 1975, Jaws is based on the novel by Peter Benchley. The beaches of Amity are in danger of a man-eating shark. To put an end to the chaos, a local police officer, a marine biologist, and fisherman battle against the ferocious beast.

My Review of "Feel the Beat"
Feel the Beat is a movie that feels like a safe play by numbers movie. There are some twists to show progression but there are some terrible cliches that it falls for as well. Still you don't really watch these movies for their incredible progressiveness either. This can be a guilty pleasure for many and I can see why.

My Review of "Nadie Sabe Que Estoy Aqui (Nobody Knows I'm here)"
Nadie Sabe Que Estoy Aqui (Nobody Knows I'm Here) is a Spanish film that seemed really interesting from its movie trailer. The trailer basically shows us that there's this kid that was really good at singing but for some reason he's later isolated to a remote area in his adult life. He looks miserable and disturbed so I was intrigued at what the story had in store. I decided to take the plunge and there was much more to this movie than I thought.

Stranger Things Season 3 - A Netflix Series Review
I have an idea. We should go to the mall! Just as long as no monsters cause a ruckus. Season 3 of Stranger Things picks up in the summer of 1985. In the midst of grappling with friendships and relationships, the gang finds themselves in a new precarious situation. The Russians attempt to open the upside-down world releasing all the evils. It’s up to Mike and his friends to save Hawkins from danger.

Little Fires Everywhere Review
I was a Celest Nge fan before Reese Witherspoon made Nge's Little Fires Everywhere a household name (I ugly cried through her first book). However, I've been a Reese fan since Cruel Intentions so the collaboration made me sign up for Hulu. No kidding.
