Someone Who Will Love You In All Your Damaged Glory by Ralphael Bob-Waksberg

May 16, 2021 by Singsonggirl 3 Comments

I love Bojack Horseman. It’s one of the best TV-series ever, it starts out good, it only gets better as the show progresses and it culminates in an amazing finale. It’s also one of the few shows where I looked up who wrote it. I know, I should do that more often because every time I’ve done it, I’ve come across great new material to watch or read. In the case of the Bojack Horseman writers though, I mainly wanted to see if they’re ok, […]

Posh Historical English Boys In Love

Maurice by E. M. Forster

January 14, 2021 by Singsonggirl 3 Comments

First review! I hope I’ve figured it all out and this doesn’t look completely terrible. Also, I’m not fully sure yet how I’ll use the rating system, so there might be adjustments in the future. To the book: A friend has recommended this to me, I’ve seen bits of the movie on TV, but I mostly only remember how ridiculously beautiful young Hugh Grant was. I’m definitely planning on seeing the whole film now, because the book is something else. While reading it, I quickly […]

Someone who will love you in all your damaged glory by Raphael Bob-Waksberg

September 9, 2019 by Claire Badger 1 Comment

Do you like Bojack Horseman? Do you need something to hold you over while you wait for season 6? Are you maybe nursing a sore heart or wondering if you’ll always be alone or if being with someone always feels like this or if it’ll ever just get better? Do you like run-on sentences that verge on neurotic but somehow veer just on the line between charming and twee? This is the short story collection for you. These stories speak to you and are written […]

Once you name it, you start getting attached to it!

June 18, 2017 by kdm 2 Comments

I’ll admit, I was late to the party – everyone was already gushing wildly about Rainbow Rowell, especially the YA love story Eleanor & Park, by the time I finally picked up one of her books.  There’s just something about THAT much effusive praise that makes me wary.  But then I read the blurb for Fan Girl, and I just couldn’t deny my interest anymore.  Of course, just as so many have fallen before me, once I read one of her books, I immediately had […]
