Here is the sixth and second-to-last book in C. J. Sansom’s Shardlake mystery series. Although this novel is starting to show some weakness, as one would likely expect when a series has gone well past the typical trilogy, I found Lamentation to be just as enjoyable as the previous books. With Master Shardlake once again…

Is life worth living if one can’t enjoy a freshly baked frosted cinnamon roll? Maybe, maybe not. But our favorite noir dapper private investigator from another planet is back for season two. I would have thought that recency bias would have me favoring this over the first season, but alas, I remember the first being…

And they are back! A new NFL season has started for the year 2026, and once again, there will be some boneheaded plays that will cost a team a win, either by the players or the coaches. I’m not talking about some regular bad play. Although these players get paid millions and millions of dollars,…

I swear, Adam Scott is capable of playing someone other than a writer in a movie. 😂 First it was in Hokum and now in The Whisper Man. But then I found out this movie is actually based on a novel so I guess it wasn’t exactly the producer’s choice. Anyway, this one was such…

What a spectacular movie. The President’s Cake is just one of those heartwarming yet tragic movie that everyone needs to watch once every while. I’m actually finding it a bit hard to find the right words to put down. It’s like one of those things that is so beautiful that it’s hard to describe with…

The King’s Justice by E.M. Powell is a nice start to her Stanton and Barling medieval mystery novel series. I’m having a fun time finishing the Shardlake series, with just two more to go in the collection. The King’s Justice is on a similar type of footing but much shorter and a little bit more…

You know, if I had known that this was going to be that kind of movie, I would have skipped my generous pour of bourbon while watching. I definitely needed my wits about me because this one turned out to be a time travel/loop movie! On one hand, I absolutely love those types of movies.…

I don’t believe I’ve read The Maid’s Diary, but I have had the privilege of reading The Patient’s Secret by the same author and enjoyed it. The Black Orchid was offered as this month’s First Read for Amazon Prime members, and I immediately snatched it up. Books offered in this program are usually a hit…

Looking for a great and fun read that will remind you of Redwall but one that’s a bit darker and more dystopian? Look no further than Green City Wars by Adrian Tchaikovsky. I think this one is a bit unusual for the author but one that is surprisingly good. In a scientific future world where…

This is absolute bollocks. After the absolute shitshow that was The Boroughs and The Last House, I can’t believe it took a mini animated series about a group of foul-mouthed cats to wash the bad taste that was left from those two Netflix specials. In what is likely one of the most stupid, gross, vile,…
