Lifel1k3 by Jay Kristoff – I would sell my firstborn child for this book. I’d anticipate anything by Jay (hence why Obsidio is #2 on this list) but a promise of a totally new and exciting world from him is to DIE for! Obsidio by Jay Kristoff & Amie Kaufman – I can’t get enough of the Illuminae Files, it’s one of my all time fave series! Iron Gold by Pierce Brown – another sequel in an all time […]
I’ve seen a few custom funkos out there that inspired me to make these (see @pieraforde’s custom Mia & Mister Kindly, @bookstorefinds custom Mia, Tric, & Mister Kindly, & @howlingpages custom Manon Blackbeak) and I had soooo much fun with it! It’s definitely something I want to try again in the future! How I did it Here’s the funkos I used for my three customs: Mia: Leeloo head, Elise body Mister Kindly: Artemis Manon: Bella head, Evie body Me: Elise head, Hermione […]
I have been meaning to make this post ever since I started back in October – it was originally a “where I’ve been post” because this is 1/2 of the reason I disappeared (and kind of fell off the face of the planet) for a couple of months.

As I was looking for books I wanted to read for Horror October, I realized something: There’s not very many YA horror books. I’m not talking “horror” stories that are about cute ghosts or are all romancey and shit. I’m talking REAL. HORROR. Gory, homicidal, disturbing, you’re-going-to-die, HORROR. There are only two books I’ve ever read that were labeled as horror that I actually consider to be real horror: The Monstrumologist and Lockdown. Both were totally dark and twisted, and […]
I am a very reluctant watcher of this show. I tried it for the first time right after finishing Dexter (TO WHICH NOTHING COULD EVER COMPARE), and I didn’t like it at all. [side note, totally unrelated: I also tried the other show that Michael C. Hall plays in right around this same time – Six Feet Under – AND I JUST COULDN’T DO IT MAN. He is and always will be Dexter and to see him as anything else now […]
