what's on mubi?

Earlier this month, I took advantage of a deal on a Mubi subscription since there were a few movies available there that I wanted to see in theaters but they never made it to my city. I’ve really been enjoying it and wanted to talk about the first three movies I’ve watched there. The Mastermind In a sedate Massachusetts suburb circa 1970, unemployed family man and amateur art thief J.B. Mooney…

umm hi.

So basically I have been uninstalling and reinstalling instagram for the last year or so. I can’t do the whole “worst thing you’ve ever seen. War crimes. A dog. Someone who has never heard music before. The global elites are killing us. A cat devouring ham from the fridge.” over and over and over again anymore. I do, however, need an outlet to yap about things so that’s why I’m reviving my blog…

Can't wait to read these back to back. I loved the experience of reading These Violent Delights for the the first time and I'm so excited to be back in that world and see what happens to my favs. #TheseViolentDelights #OurViolentEnds #ChloeGong #Fantasy #YAFantasy #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CWd3LBtr5bq/?utm_medium=tumblr

This week, I'm reading This Poison Heart by Kalynn Bayron for the @clearursht prompt: a book with gold/silver/bronze on the cover. I'm approaching the halfway point in this and I'm really having a good time. The Secret Garden and Greek mythology elements are really interesting to me and keeping me engaged. I'd moved away from YA fantasy recently but this is really bringing me back. I haven't read Cinderella is Dead by this author but I'm interested in picking it up even more now. What is everyone else reading right now? https://www.instagram.com/p/CWYpskJr2iH/?utm_medium=tumblr

It's the last full week of classes this semester so I'm approaching full grading mode and maybe a big life transition (maybe?) so I'm glad to have my @shopamandarachlee planner for 2022. I loved having this one last year because of the mix of creativity and practicality (basically my whole vibe).

I'm done teaching for the week (but not grading, that's for sure) but I'm hoping to spend the weekend reading, resting, and playing some Little Dragon Cafe or Animal Crossing 💜 #LoreOlympus #Nintendo #NintendoSwitch #Pokemon #BookReview #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CWL2ZBCrqVM/?utm_medium=tumblr

This week I'm hoping to finish up The Love Hypothesis and read about half of Women and Other Monsters. The Love Hypothesis is really cute but I am a bit annoyed by their lack of communication. It's probably due to their power dynamic, though and I also feel a little strange about that but it's probably because I work in academia and have for a while. I definitely see why other people love it, though. I'm just in the intro for Women and Other Monsters (reading for @some.obscure.book.club ) but this nonfiction really speaks to some of my research interests so I definitely want to mine the references section for this book to see what types of articles I can find.

The weather has been windy and rainy so I've spent most of the weekend inside playing Animal Crossing and Little Dragon Cafe. I also finished up Dial A for Aunties and Severance for @clearursht readathon. All three of my November reads so far have been phenomenal and I hope that continues! I'm picking up Heartstopper this evening so I have high hopes. Hope you're having the weekend you want to have! #ClearUrShitReadathon #ClearUrShit #DialAForAunties #Romance #Mystery #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CV_JPNVLLEc/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sorry I haven't been posting regularly - I just haven't had the energy with grading midterms, job hunting, and some health related things (I'm okay!) I finished Ring by Koji Suzuki for @some.obscure.book.club and I have thoughts but I don't know how I feel about the whole thing. I also picked up The Ex Hex and while it's a little cheesy so far, I'm not mad about it. I finally had the energy to pick it up yesterday so I'm hoping to finish it before @clearursht starts Monday!

I'm taking advantage of cooler weather and trying to make an effort to read outside more. I'm reading Ring for @some.obscure.book.club and even though I know the mystery the main character is trying to solve, I'm still super invested. . This semester has been mentally difficult for me. I have zero motivation or will to just do my job - something I've LOVED in the past. I'm so checked out and I feel so guilty about it. I'm looking into other job options so 🤞🤞 . In the meantime, I want to make an effort to take care of myself and do things that make me happy while working on not feeling guilty about not giving everything all of the time. . #Ring #Horror #Ringu #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CVTCAgZrnrD/?utm_medium=tumblr

My 30th birthday is looking beautiful so far 🎉 . A leisurely lunch with friends made me almost forget about my morning doctor's appointment 😅 . #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CVODFL2LV07/?utm_medium=tumblr

The past few weeks I've been feeling like I'm behind and can't get caught up on anything. It's so frustrating and I'm drained all the time. I'm hoping I can relax enough to enjoy my upcoming birthday, though. . I'm currently in the middle of White Smoke, One Piece vol. 7, and an upcoming book by @writing_history_ called The de Staël Escapades. They're all fun in different ways. . How is everyone doing this week? . #WhiteSmoke #OnePiece #Manga #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CVD7lfQLND3/?utm_medium=tumblr

I finished up volumes 4-6 of One Piece and the rest of Dragonball this morning and it was so exciting. . One Piece is a pirate adventure in a fantasy world full of devil fruit and magical abilities. Luffy makes me laugh and I love learning more about Zoro's backstory. I also love seeing Sanji kick a fish-shaped boat. . My plan was to only read Dragonball and not really continue with the series but after that ending, I definitely want to know more about this world. I might not continue right away but I definitely will in the future. I love seeing the art for the fight scenes and laughing at this cute cast of characters. . I think I'll start reading one volume of Pokemon Adventures each Sunday until I decide to pick up Dragonball Z, though so look out for that! . #Manga #Dragonball #DragonballZ #OnePiece #Anime #BookReview #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CU3BKYnr_fN/?utm_medium=tumblr

I've been on a quest to read all of Tiffany D Jackson's books since I first read Monday's Not Coming last year. That thriller had me staring at the wall at 5AM trying to process what just happened and Allegedly is no different. I'm torn about the ending. On the one hand, I like that it wasn't neat in any way and Jackson doesn't shy away from really going there. On the other hand, does it change the messaging? . After sitting on it for a few days, I'm starting to feel a bit more into the ending. It was shocking and risky and at my core, I want that in the books I read. Plus, I need to stop thinking about every plot point as needing to serve the themes from the rest of the story (sorry for the vagueness - don't want to spoil). . Rambling aside, Jackson really just might be my favorite author. . #Thriller #Allegedly #TiffanyDJackson #BookAesthetic #BookReview #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CUx9F7BLRJh/?utm_medium=tumblr

What's the last book that surprised you? . I've been wanting to check out Saga but I'm really iffy about sci-fi so I didn't know what to expect. When I found this on the free shelf at work, I snatched it up to read at a later date. During my office hour, I realized I didn't have anything to read so I picked this up and really liked it. The artwork is beautiful and the different character designs were exciting to see. I'm totally rooting for the core family and can't wait to see what happens next. . #Saga #SciFi #Comics #BookReview #BookRecommendations #BookBlogger #BookBlog #BookishCommunity #Bookstagrammer #Bookstagram #Bibliophile #BookishLoveGroup #BookishLove #ReadersOfInstagram #Reader #Books #Book #Bookworm #Bookish #BookNerd #InstaBook #BooksOfInstagram #BookPhotography #Read #BookLove #BooksBooksBooks #InstaBooks #IGReads #BookCommunity #BookAesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CUYJBhLr8Rw/?utm_medium=tumblr
