“The Running Man” by Stephen King: Leaving a Corrupted World Behind (BOOK REVIEW)
I’ve been closely following the upcoming The Running Man movie adaptation by Paramount, directed by Edgar Wright and starring Glen Powell. I made a promise to a special someone that I will read and review the book before the movie premieres later this month, so here I am. […]
“Shy Girl” by Mia Ballard: The Less Human, The More In Control (BOOK REVIEW)
I received an early copy of Shy Girl by Mia Ballard through NetGalley, and honestly, I wasn’t ready. Like many others, what first caught my attention was the cover – a soft, pastel design with an innocent-looking dog wearing a pink bow, giving off peak cottagecore serenity.
