Tome Thursday: Walk the Plank

 
Hello everyone!
 
So just as I prepare to head to the seaside for vacation, I always make sure that the books I have on my reading list get cleared off before I do so, seeing as I don't feel like dragging all of them with me when I don't have to.
 
This is one of them!
 
It's the third in the batch of books I nabbed off BookSirens that one time, and I have to say that it was incredibly enjoyable, just as the first two.
 
But then I mean, pirates, right?
 
Nothing beats pirates in the middle of summer!
 
Especially when paired up with vampires for some reason or another ... that kind of thing sounds completely absurd when you think about it, but when you actually want to read it, you find it works out, somehow.
 
I don't know how, but it does. Marilyn Barr's Walk the Plank is up next, and hopefully you enjoy it.

Talkie Tuesday: Spider-Man No Way Home

 

"With great power there must also come great responsibility."

 
Hello everyone!
 
Did you think I was done with Marvel?
 
I did too!
 
Especially since I haven't been overly impressed with the MCU's version of Spider-Man thus far, which I haven't kept a secret.
 
Listen, Tom Holland is great, I'm sure he is - but somehow the whole origins story when it's a teenager isn't something I go in for anymore, not at this point at least. Maybe it's because I don't feel like it? Or maybe it's just because a lot of it happens in a high school.
 
And I'm so over high school right now haha.
 
HOWEVER, that doesn't hold true for this last in the trilogy.
 
Because DAYUM, okay, everyone was correct! Everyone was definitely right about this one. So now you better make sure we can swing with our netting and communicate with Nick Fury.
 
Spider-Man: No Way Home is coming to your living room next.
