For the past year or so, I’ve been in a reading rut, and this book was unfortunately to blame.

The Devil Wears Prada 2: The Death of Creativity
I, like a lot of fans of the original movie, was excited to learn that The Devil Wears Prada was getting a sequel. It’s been 20 long years since the original came out with its iconic characters, memorable quotes, and amazing fashion. I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of story does this sequel have to tell us after all these years?
The last thing I was expecting was the movie we got.

Spoiler for the A Court of Mist and Fury.
Wow, it’s been a minute!
That the trouble with data entry positions as a writer. The last thing you want to do after hours of typing is go home and do it all over again. On top of that I’ve just been generally burnt out from have to wakeup at 5am to get to work despite naturally being a night owl.
The one good thing about the job is that I can listen to audiobooks for 8 hours straight. That means biggest barrier for getting through each 20+ hour ACOTAR novels is the Libby waitlist. But after about 5 months, I’ve gotten through the series to date…And I have thoughts.
For the most part, this post will be about A Court of Mist and Fury. I already made a separate post discussing the first book, A Court of Thornes and Rose, here.

I didn’t hate it, so there’s that. (ー_ー;)
But for real, this book wasn’t bad. It just failed to live up to the hype, so let’s get into that.
A Quick Review of Set On You
Recently I’ve been getting into romance novels. (Heads up, there’s a post in the works about that.) But I decided I wouldn’t review them because of how unavoidable spoiling them would be. But I realized I could get around it by talking about the general vibe of the story and avoiding details.

Wow! It’s been forever since I did one of these. Sorry about that.
I’ve been super busy and haven’t had much free time to read. But then, I found out the Libby app has audiobooks!
Just Like Home is the second Sarah Gailey book I’m reviewing for this series. The first was Upright Women Wanted, which you can find here.
The way that Gailey handles narratives was just so intriguing to me. They would be so flippant yet confident about their world-building that I decided to find another Gailey book. I needed to see if they would be my new favorite author or if this was just a fluke.

A Quick Review of Bee and Puppycat
So because my life is chaos, I am again without my beloved laptop, and this will be my first attempt to write and edit a post using only the WordPress app. Let’s hope this goes well!🤞🏾 (I guarantee there will be grammar and spelling, but I’ll come back to edit things after my laptop gets back.)
Also, obviously, there will be some spoilers for the show.
I first found Bee and Puppycat on Frederator’s YouTube channel around 2015 or 2016. I can’t remember if the series had come out yet or if it was just a pilot. All I knew was that it was cute and weird, and I wanted to see more of it. Eventually, Fredorator partnered with VRV, and I watched the new Bee and Puppycat episodes there. After that, the show went on hold for a couple of years for reasons I’m too lazy to research why.
Also, I keep hearing that the second season got leaked, so while some fans might have already seen these episodes, I only saw them when they were released on Netflix.
This isn’t technically a first-watch review of the series, but it has been so long since I watched the original that I can’t say I’ll be an expert on all things Bee and Puppycat.

A Quick Review: Toy Story 4
I forget to publish this post! (￣_￣|||) I literally had it in my drafts for a month and a half, but I guess we can just pretend it’s in response to the Lightyear trailer.
This was a movie that I was reluctant to watch. I thought that Toy Story 3 was the perfect send-off for the toys, so when Toy Story 4 was announced, it felt like a thoughtless cash grab.
Boredom convinced me to give it a chance, and I’m glad I did.

A Quick Movie Review: Encanto
Like a lot of people, I didn’t see many advertisements for the film. The only reason I even know about the movie was that “Surface Pressure” was all over my For You page on Tiktok. It made me fall in love with Luisa’s character, so, when the film dropped on Disney Plus, I raced to see it.

You thought it would be part 2 of that Star Wars Rewrite, but it was me, A Quick Review!
But seriously, I feel bad for how I pretty much abandoned this series. I had a lot of free time for reading when I started this series, but I got a job as a frontline healthcare worker, so I lost all my downtime real quick. As a result, this will probably be the last A Quick Review for a minute. (At least until I get an Audible account or something.)
For now, let’s send this series off with a book that’s gay and it slaps.
Sorry, I’ve been on TikTok for too much.
