Life

Last weekend was a long weekend for us Canadians, therefore we had Monday off of work which was super nice! My mom, sister and I decided we wanted to do something together, but we didn’t really want to spend any money, so we took a drive down to Lake Ontario on the edge of the city and took the time to explore a little! It turned out to be a great day!

On Tuesday, Patty, Jesse, Joey & I met up with Kat as she is currently visiting Toronto! We went out for dinner at a place called Louis Cifer which is a pretty cool resturaunt that I head to any time I’m going to a concert at the Danforth Music Hall! Before dinner, we made a little stop at Dollarama to make sure Kat got her fill of Canadian snacks!

The rest of the week was pretty calm and relaxing. I didn’t do much other than go to work during the day, work on a freelance project at night and read. This week has been pretty gloomy weather-wise which made it easier to stay inside and be a little productive.

This weekend has been super jam packed though, but amazingly fun! My best friend is getting married and I went to her wedding shower this weekend! It was so nice to see everyone again! I also went to a convention today called Anime North which is an Anime specific convention that happens every year in Toronto! I have never been before and it was quite the experience! I managed to snag a bunch of Yuri!!! On Ice merchandise as seen in the above photo!

Now, that’s enough about my life! Let’s talk about the pop culture I consumed this week!

Books

Recently Finished: A Court Of Wings & Ruin by Sarah J. Maas and Motor Crush Vol.1 by Brendan Fletcher, Cameron Stewart & Babs Tarr

So, I finally finished A Court Of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas! It wasn’t the best book in the series (that title still belongs to book #2) but it was still one hell of an entertaining read! Check out my review that I posted yesterday for more in depth thoughts and feelings! I also read all 5 single issues that will make up the upcoming first volume of Motor Crush by Brendan Fletcher, Cameron Stewart and Babs Tarr! Oh my god guys, it was amazing! I can’t wait to read more from this series and I promise you, it’s worth checking out! You can read my review for it here.

Currently reading: Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel & The Party by Robyn Harding

I have recently started reading Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel as it has been on my TBR for quite a while now! So far so good! I’m really enjoying how fast paced it is! I’ve also recently just started The Party by Robyn Harding! I haven’t read enough of it to tell you how I feel about it yet, but I am excited for this one!

Upcoming reads: Saints & Misfits by S.K. Ali & Maybe In Paris by Rebecca Christiansen

Saints and Misfits by S.K. Ali is one of my most anticipated reads for this year and I’m so excited that I was able to get an ARC of it! I hope to start reading this one soon! I was also able to get an ARC of Maybe In Paris by Rebecca Christiansen which I’m also really excited for!

Film

Recently watched: N/A

Ugh. So I still haven’t watched any films recently guys…I’m so mad at myself for it, but I really just have no time! I did try to watch Pitch Black at my friend’s place last night, but I honestly had no idea what the hell was going on right from the beginning so I kind of tuned out. Hopefully I’ll be able to watch something soon!

Upcoming: Logan

Well, Logan was just released on DVD and Blu ray, so maybe I’ll be able to watch that one soon!

Television

Currently finished watching: The 100 Season 4

I had stopped watching The 100 season 4 about 4 episodes ago, but I kept hearing so many people talk about the finale so I figured I should probably binge it. I did and I’m confused, but I don’t think I hate it as much as a lot of people did! I’m actually quite excited to see what happens next season!

Currently watching/binging: N/A

I was thinking of starting Voltron: Legendary Defender as I saw it literally everywhere at Anime North today! We’ll see if I have the time at all! I also still need to start American Gods…if only I had the time.
