Shades of Autumn

Book vs. Movie: Cloud Atlas
I read half the book, then watched the movie, then read the other half of the book, so everything was still fresh for comparison. And this is one of the few times where I can't make a clear decision between the book and the movie as to which I liked better. I liked...

Book Review: The Humans
The Humans by Matt Haig Goodreads has a pretty perfect summary of the story, so I'm just going to jump right into my thoughts/reaction. I liked it. It was funny in an absurd way, just the right amount of heart-breaking, and not at all boring. I personally get a kick...
What I Wore: Daydreaming
This month, I will be (sporadically) participating in Blogtember with Jenni. Today's prompt: If you could take three months off from your current life and do anything in the world, what would you do? If I could take three months off and do anything, with money not...
