TV Show Review: Being Erica

By: Jenna Hathaway Being Erica is another one of those underrated and little known gem of a show from Canada that more people really should get into. It’s on its fourth and last season now, but it’s never too late to catch up. The story’s premise is fantastical enough while being realistic and relatable at [...]

A Summery Christmas

By: Jenna Hathaway With the month of December coming soon, I got to thinking about all the Christmases I have spent in my life. Most of you are probably used to white Christmases. I regret to say I have never experienced even one of them. This is why I love to sing ‘I’m dreaming of [...]

Before I Fall: by Lauren Oliver

By: Jenna Hathaway Recently I picked up this book to break from my supernatural genre, and it turned out it was a great read; something that I feel I should recommend to others. While the book still has its own magical element, it’s not so dominant and it doesn’t have your usual supernatural creatures that [...]

Divergent by Veronica Roth

By Jenna Hathaway Divergent is the latest ‘hot’ dystopian series. While I wouldn’t even compare it to The Hunger Games, I do have to admit it’s kind of exciting even if it has its duller moments and then around the end the climax seems a bit rushed and the progress rather extreme. The book tells [...]

Pushing Daisies

By Jenna Hathaway Pushing Daisies is a quirky little TV show that only lasted for two short seasons before it was canceled, but it’s such a gem that I would hate for anyone to miss it. It’s funny, it has a heart, it has its heart-wrenching moments, suspense and mystery, true love romance, and to top [...]
