Hello, happy people! We are HALFWAY finished with June, which means we are almost halfway through the year! How the time has flown. I can hardly believe that the week is over. Yes, friends, it is Saturday, and that means it’s time for our weekly cruise down memory lane. I hope that this week has been a great one for…

Hello awesome people, it’s the weekend! It’s June! It’s summer here in the US! It doesn’t matter that the “official” first day of summer is June 21; it was in the upper 90s here in the Kingdom of Undisclosed Location yesterday. That’s summer, folks. As much as I would like to remain in the blessed indoors, I have errands to…

Let’s be honest: despite the adage, we are all guilty of occasionally judging books by the cover. We know we shouldn’t, but sometimes, we just can’t help ourselves. This month’s roundtable topic was suggested by Nicole Taft, bookseller par excellence. She sees a lot of book covers, and wanted to talk about books that we, as readers, picked up simply…

Hello on this rainy (for me) Saturday! There’s no need to ask what you’re up to this weekend. It’s Deadpool weekend, and a little Deadpool makes anything better, doesn’t he? This music video proves my statement. But anyway, what did we do over the last week? Let’s find out!

Last month, we talked about our favorite superheroes. Everybody loves a hero, no? We covered a healthy spectrum, from the traditional (Spider-Man!) to the unexpected (Super-Administrator!), and had a lot of fun with it. So, naturally, I thought that we could flip the coin and take a look at the more complicated members of the fictional world. The villains are…

It’s the weekend! The weekend is awesome! Let’s hear it for the weekend! What are your plans? There’s a strawberry festival here in the Kingdom of Undisclosed Location, but the weather’s looking a little questionable, so we’re skipping it. Turns out that I’ve had strawberry shortcake before, and while it’s a delightful treat, it’s not worth potentially being caught in…

On September 11, 2016, I went to my local movie theater for an experience that I never thought would happen in my lifetime. One of my favorite films, Jim Henson’s Labyrinth, was getting an extremely limited theater presentation, courtesy of Fathom Events. I was thrilled. I’d watched the movie over a dozen times since its 1986 release, but I wasn’t old…
