Top 11 Obscure TV Shows That Only I Might Remember Pt. 2
Top 11 Obscure TV Shows That Only I Might Remember Pt. 2
6. Moonlight (9/07 – 5/08) When this show came out, I was already two years into working in New Jersey with very little money and not much access to television. This was before there were streaming services, of course. I wouldn’t have had the money for a streaming service anyway. I actually bought episodes of this show with Pepsi points of all things. This show is about a vampiric private…

Top 11 Anime Airing this January!
A long year is behind us, after many trials and tribulations, we are now at the end of 2021. For most of us, the days have become shorter and the nights much longer and colder, as the winter season makes itself comfortable for the next months. As one cycle ends, another starts and with that does the influx of new and exciting anime titles!
Some get more busy with the end of the year, others can finally relax, but in whichever situation you might be in, there is no reason not to look at this splendid list of new titles coming out for you to watch and unwind.
As the beginning of the year is a very popular spot for new releases, there are many studios that are bringing out their best work in January, making it the beginning of a new chapter. This time, we have many action driven titles, as well as mystery and romance ones which hopefully means something for every taste out there!
Do be warned, there will be anime mentioned that will contain spoilers for their previous franchises, please be mindful of some spoilers!
With all of that out of the way, let’s start into the new year!
My Top 11 Favorite Movies 2019
It’s been an amazing year in movies for me. Before 2019, I had only seen Frozen once, but Frozen II is such a heartfelt, beautiful movie that I completely fell in love with the series. Booksmart is so funny and so real that even the frat boys sitting next to me were laughing their butts off. And what can I say about Knives Out that hasn’t been said already? Rian Johnson once again proved himself to be an amazing filmmaker and provided my favorite line of 2019: “Marta is a good nurse” 😊💖
Honorable mentions: Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, Happy Death Day 2U, John Wick: Chapter 3, Shazam, Terminator: Dark Fate, and Zombieland: Double Tap!

My Top 11 Favorite Books/Series
Why top 11? Because I couldn’t narrow it down by one more.
1. An Ember in the Ashes (series) by Sabaa Tahir
An Ember in the Ashes is told by two POV characters: Laia of Sierra and Ellias Veterus. Laia is a Scholar, a people who have been conquered by the Martials, the people Ellias is a part of. The Martials are a militarian people, and the best of them are called Masks, which Ellias is close to becoming, but he has plans to escape and run away. Laia is willing to live in fear and follow the rules of the Martials, but when her brother is taken, she must become a spy for the rebels, and act as a slave of one of the most dangerous women in the Empire. It is beautifully written and has deep lore.
2. The Lunar Chronicles (series) by Marissa Myer
I have an interesting relationship with this series because when I was getting into my young adult years, I hadn’t been introduced to the wide world of Young Adult Literature, and I thought I just didn’t enjoy reading anymore, but I happened to pick up Cinder one day, and I fell right back in. I binge-read the series and loved it. I love retellings and sci-fi so this series was right up my alley.
3. Skyward (first in a series) by Brandon Sanderson
Skyward is about a girl named Spensa who is one of the few remaining humans, now living on a remote planet and being attacked by the Krell. Pilots are the only defense against the Krell and are highly honored in society. Spensa’s father was a pilot who fled and was shot down, deeming his daughter to a lifetime of shame. Despite the odds, Spensa is determined to become a pilot and clear her father’s name. It is such a good book. Brandon Sanderson is a master of words and I can’t wait until I can get my hands on more of his books.
4. The Princess Bride by S. Morgenstein; revised by William Goldman
I love the sarcasm of this book, it is a hilarious adventure romance, and all the characters are memorable and likable. Plus, it's a pretty short read, but definitely worth the read.
5. Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus
I just read this book so this is pretty fresh and holy crap. This book... the mystery keeps you guessing until the very end and it gave me chills. I don’t read a lot of murder mysteries, but I keep loving every book Karen M. McManus puts out. In fact...
6. One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus
Yep, another Karen M. McManus book. This one has a bit more focus on the relationships of the characters then Two Can Keep a Secret, but the mystery is still really compelling and I never saw the answer coming. McManus knows how to write a mystery.
7. Renegades (trilogy) by Marissa Myer
Yeah so, you’ll probably figure out that I’m a huge Marissa Myer fangirl. Read all her books, can’t wait for her upcoming projects, all that jazz. Renegades is another sci-fi, and this one is about a society of prodigies and non-prodigies. Prodigies are humans who have superpowers, and we follow Nova, a member of the Anarchists, a group of villains left over from a battle between them and the first members of the Renegades. Nova goes undercover as a Renegade to get the other villains information on their foes. We also follow Adrian, a Renegade and son to three of the original Renegades (his mother died when he was young, and he was adopted by two others) he doesn’t always want to follow the strict rules of the Renegades, so he creates his alter-alter-ego, the Sentenial. Marissa Myer is amazing at building new and interesting worlds and I am beyond excited for Supernova!
8. Heartless by Marissa Myer
Renegades just barely edged past this one, pretty much only for my love of sci-fi. So Heartless is an origin story for the Queen of Hearts from Lewis Caroll’s Alice and Wonderland stories. It starts out kind of slow but picks up as the story goes on. I love Lewis Caroll’s stories and I felt Myer really captured the feel of his universe, and I still haven’t gotten over this book. (No Spoilers)
9. They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera
This book DESTROYED ME. It is so beautifully written, and heartbreaking, and just SO GOOD. I hate this but I love it so much (as is my relationship with most sad books). This book takes place in a world where on the day you die, you get a phone call saying you’re gonna die, and there is also an app where you can meet other Deckers (people who are going to die that day). Our two main characters, Rufus and Mateo, meet on this app and spend their last day together.
10. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
This is another book I read around the Lunar Chronicles re-introduction to reading. I read this after the Lunar Chronicles, and I was so engrossed in the story. Death is our narrator and we are treated to a touching story about friendship and family set in the World War II era. It is a really slow book, like really slow. But it is so worth it.
11. Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch
I couldn’t go without at least mentioning this book, just because I literally laughed out loud multiple times reading this book. It has great comedic timing, and you may or may not know this, but I don’t usually read or really like contemporary romances without like a different aspect. But I loved all these characters and the setting is great. Our main character, Lina’s mom has just died, and she is set to live with her mom’s old friend, Howard. She is given one of her mom’s old journals, and uses it to try and figure out who her father is along with her new friend, Ren.
