Carrie by Stephen King: A Book I Never Read but Feel Like I Have

As Halloween approaches, excitement is building around the new Carrie adaptation… But the original story, set in the late 70s, portrays Carrie White’s struggles with isolation and power, too…

Hello, dearies! Welcome!

Since Halloween 2026 is growing closer and the new Carrie show just came out, I decided it was time to talk…

In the new Carrie, all I know is this, that unlike the new show, the book does not take place in modern times, it is set in the late 70’s.

So this book by Stephen King was his first published one, did you know? And it is not a regular book, it mixes the story with newspaper snippets, book excerpts, and reports about what happened at the end, but do not believe me on pace or what that is like, I have not read it.

Friday Flashback: Stardust

Time to talk about one of my fav movies… that somehow doesn’t get as much buzz as it should. And also the book where it came from: Stardust.

Hello, dearies!

Have you ever liked a movie so much that you think the book cannot be possibly be bad?
Yeah, that’s me with Stardust, the movie.

This is perhaps one of my top 10 most watched movies of all time, I know it, I recognise the themes, the music, I can quote it. When I read the book? It was a whole different experience, and not in the fangirling, awesome way.

Spoiler Time Sunday: Pride and Prejudice’s Lydia

Pride and Prejudice is a superb comedy of manners of Regency England, according to many readers. But did you know how Lydia really was in the book? Here’s how!

This will be a quick Spoiler Time Sunday.

Book/Movie: Pride and Prejudice

Author: Jane Austen

Book Character: Lydia Bennet (Youngest sister)

I was recently watching Pride and Prejudice (movie 2005) again for the thousandth time. And realised how little they explain how Lydia is, there’s a bit more to what she does and how she is. So here I am.

Did you know that in the book Mr Bennet actually asks Lizzie who did Lydia drive away (which suitor) by being all flirty.

Dune 2: Movie

“There is no escape—we pay for the violence of our ancestors.”

Hello, dearies! 🍿

Did you watch the new Dune? Or Dune: Part Two?

I did.

I was confused by the end of it.

So, here we are. I had to talk about the movie, and well, this is me rambling on it.

I’ll jump right in.
