The cure for marvel fatigue!
We absolutely loved The Umbrella Academy! The characters drew us in, and the depth of humanity in the storytelling kept us around for the whole thing. We were especially drawn to the coping mechanisms of each character. We were also drawn to the family dynamics.

Great sci-fi fantasy read - adventure, romance, battles ... All the feels
I've had this on my TBR list for a long time and I am so glad I finally got to reading it. I really enjoyed the storytelling and character building - it had me in tears within the first few chapters and cheering by the end. I am looking forward to reading the next one.

Ghost stories told by a master storyteller
Liz's stories are amazing! She does a great job of making you question if they are real or not. Her vocalization and timing are incredible. She does a great job of storytelling that makes you want to listen more, and possibly never ever go to Massachusetts.

Love in the Time of Cholera
Love in the Time of Cholera
Gabriel García Márquez | 2007 | Fiction & Poetry

Book Favorite

"Love in the Time of Cholera is not a love story, but more a treatise on the subject of love in all its many forms. Márquez’s brilliant storytelling here is a joy, transforming the mundane realities of a long marriage into moments to be savored and relished. The intimate discoveries and daily bonds of marriage are at once thoroughly human, relatable, as well as spiritually transcendent.​"

Frank Turner recommended Big Fish (2003) in Movies (curated)

2003 | Comedy, Drama

"“I like Tim Burton, but this is one of his that gets me every time. It’s a movie about the relationship between fathers and sons and about storytelling, and those are two things that I have particular interest in. It makes me cry like a little girl every time I see it. It has three denouements in it – after every one I’ve got tears on my face.”"

Movie Favorite

"The tragedy of this movie strikes out of nowhere and yet remains completely inevitable, which is the best sort of storytelling. It captures how sex is dangerous in a visceral gut punch. Even though this is very much a period piece, the themes remain timelessly disturbing. And the haunting sound design of the clinking ice-covered branches stayed with me long after the film ended."
