January carries a hush to it, the kind that settles into your bones and makes space for sorrow, reflection, and stories steeped in magic ❄️✨📖

Sealed with a Curse is a tale of loss, abuse, and courage, as Selene, once cherished companion to six Princes, finds herself enduring cruelty born of grief after a kingdom shatters with the Queen’s death.

With only her swans and the kindness of the kitchens for comfort, Selene’s world begins to change when Conway appears, offering warmth, devotion, and the possibility of something more, even as the Gods stir and a terrible curse seals the Princes’ fate.

As the year turns and hope feels fragile, ask yourself: would you choose mercy, love, or freedom when forgiveness costs everything? 💔✨

Prepare to scream again...or not
I was pretty excited to see this movie, and by the end I was only mildly disappointed. This movie had a few twists that I thought were enjoyable. But ultimately the movie falls flat because the main twist was weak and didn't matter overall in the scream universe. Some of the acting was terrible, and I can't tell if it was intentional for some of the character traits or if it was legit bad acting. The practical effects in this were really good and actually looked believable. I also enjoyed the update in the horror movie troupes and the way they incorporated newer technology into the movie. Overall this movie will fall flat unfortunately but it does open up the universe for another sequel.

Tessa and The are twins, born in the 1920s, and inseparable until university. Theo goes to Cambridge, Tessa to the Sorbonne. Something terrible happens to Tessa in France, widening the gap between the twins.

When WW2 breaks out, Theo joins the RAF, and a bored, unfulfilled Tessa joins Special Operations and goes to France.

Theo returns, Tessa does not.

Many years later, a PhD student researching the women in Special Operations, gets in contact with Theo about his sister, and together they uncover a shocking secret.

I loved this book. It was so well researched, exciting and emotionally devastating. I was left bereft at the end. The sacrifices people made during this time, even when society made it unacceptable, and women like Tessa did it anyway, were profound.

I couldn’t recommend this more if I tried!
