  • EXPeriencing ‘Arrow’

    EXPeriencing ‘Arrow’

    Cover image via. I probably never would have started watching Arrow without having become addicted to The Flash first. Considering The Flash is a spin-off of Arrow, and considering The Flash is so well-written and engrossing, it stands to reason that Arrow should be about as good, too, right? I would say yes, but it’s a slower build up than The Flash. When Arrow started,…

  • EXPeriencing ‘The Flash’: Season One

    EXPeriencing ‘The Flash’: Season One

    Cover photo via MoviePilot. I typically think of myself as a Marvel Universe fan. I immersed myself in Marvel in the early 2000s when I saw X-Men and Spider-Man in theaters. They were fun, had intriguing characters, and everyone was full of powers that I craved as a teenager. (To the point that I was writing…

  • EXPeriencing Fox’s Monday Lineup (And Saying Goodbye to ‘The Bachelor’)

    EXPeriencing Fox’s Monday Lineup (And Saying Goodbye to ‘The Bachelor’)

    Cover image via Know Your Meme. I had every intention of bringing my laptop home from work this evening so I could live tweet the second half of The Bachelor and then write a blog post about what I thought of the show four weeks in. That plan was derailed when I kept my TV on…

  • EXPeriencing ‘Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens’

    EXPeriencing ‘Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens’

    (Image via Reddit. Warning: Mild spoilers below.) In March of this year, I blogged about how I became a Star Wars fan. I concluded that post saying I was “pretty freaking excited” to see The Force Awakens in theaters. How excited was I? Excited enough to go without my husband, the much bigger Star Wars fan,…

  • EXPeriencing Go Set a Watchman

    EXPeriencing Go Set a Watchman

    Cover photo via Entertainment Monthly. It’s been more than two months since my last blog post, but after buying my first house and dealing with all the insanity that comes with that, I think I’m finally ready to dive back into blogging and keeping up with this little project. Thanks for reading! What a roller…

  • EXPeriencing Marvel’s ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ (Season 2)

    EXPeriencing Marvel’s ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ (Season 2)

    Cover image via Hypable. Caution, contains some spoilery things. I have previously noted my fangirl love of the Marvel cinematic universe, so it’s probably no surprise that I’m a big fan of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I was a little iffy about it when the first season premiered on ABC, so I didn’t watch it as it aired. I waited until…

  • EXPeriencing ‘Inked’ by Eric Smith

    EXPeriencing ‘Inked’ by Eric Smith

    Cover photo via Publishing Crawl. Nothing like a good vacation to get you caught up on your reading! Although my vacation was not filled with lying poolside or on the beach, I did get to have some quality time with my Nook on my flights to and from Orlando. And that meant I finally got…

  • EXPeriencing ‘The Mistress’ by Tiffany Reisz

    EXPeriencing ‘The Mistress’ by Tiffany Reisz

    First things first, when an erotica novel makes you cry (multiple times) because of All The Feels, you know you’ve got a good book on your hands. Two and half years ago, I read my first-ever erotica novel, The Siren by Tiffany Reisz. I blogged about that experience on my old blog, and you can find…

  • EXPeriencing All the Light We Cannot See

    EXPeriencing All the Light We Cannot See

    I’ve always been drawn to historical fiction. Ever since I was a kid and would devour American Girl and Dear America Diary books, I’ve loved stories that put you in one person or a couple people’s shoes during a certain event in history. Specifically, I’ve also always been drawn to WWII stories. Perhaps it’s because…

  • Traversing “Monument Valley”

    Traversing “Monument Valley”

    I almost never spend money on apps. Case in point, I’ve owned an iPhone since 2011, and I’ve only spent money on two apps: a Couch to 5K running trainer app and “Monument Valley.” I had never heard of “Monument Valley” until my sister texted me a screen cap of the intro screen (above) saying, “YOU…
