February… the month of love and apparently snow days. This month, I consumed a lot of media, ate a lot of good food and spent time with friends, family and my lovely boyfriend!
I had 3 consecutive snow days, celebrated my dad’s 60th birthday and of course, read books that were on my tbr! Along with that, I shared this blog with my fellow friends and family via Facebook! This was a big step for me, but one I am glad I took! You might be thinking “Why was this such a big deal?” well it’s because I do not like self-promoting anything. I have a hard time celebrating myself, so it was a win in my book to tell my friends and family about this!
Anyway, that’s enough of that, here is my February wrapped!
Books I Read
The Final Girl Support Group, Grady Hendrix (01/30-01/31): A fun & enjoyable read that kept me on my toes. Read My Review!
We Sold Our Souls, Grady Hendrix (02/04-02/07): Not as enticing as the first Hendrix book I read. Read My Review!
Psychology of Money, Morgan Housel (09/02/24-02/06/25): This was a solid read; I don’t have too much to say regarding it since it is a finance book, written by a finance guy about saving money.
The House of My Mother, Shari Franke (02/10-02/11): A great insight into the behind the scenes of YouTuber (and now felon) Ruby Franke aka The 8 Passengers and family vloggers. A truly horrific story told from her eldest daughter.
Greenlights, Matthew McConaughey (02/18-02-20): A personal memoir from actor Matthew McConaughey. Inspirational while also funny. Read My Review!
The Berry Pickers, Amanda Peters (02/20-02/23): Interesting story told from two perspectives about a girl who isn’t who she thought she was, and a man with a dying wish.
My Current Reads
- Spiral, Bal Khabra
- Onyx Storm, Rebecca Yarros
- The Secret Lives of Church Ladies, Deesha Philyaw
- The Southern Book Clubs Guide to Slaying Vampires, Grady Hendrix.
Movies I Watched
Thor, (2011): A solid introduction to Thor in the MCU.
The Substance (2024): I was so excited, but felt so let down by it. Read My Review!
Dumb Money (2023): I have been wanting to watch this and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Read My Review!
Moneyball, (2011): Fun movie, Brad Pitt once again stuns my screen.
Uncut Gems, (2019): A24 continues to be my favorite production company, and it is wonderful to see Adam Sandler in something that isn’t a comedy.
Captain America: Brave New World (2025): I had such a good time watching this! Read My Review!
Pulp Fiction, (1994): A classic Quinton Tarantino movie.
The Prestige, (2006): Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman is a duo I didn’t know I needed!
Challengers, (2024): Something I didn’t expect to like so much. I didn’t know I could dislike a Zendaya character so much!
TV Shows I Watched
Pop Culture Jeopardy!: Continuing the Jeopardy train!
Great British Bake Off: Just a fun baking show that I enjoy watching.
Blue Ribbon Baking Championship: Another fun baking show!
