ApollyCon 2019

Last Friday and Saturday, I went down to Washington DC with my friends Rachel & DJ to attend this year's ApollyCon! In case you don't yet know about ApollyCon , it's a four day event hosted by Jennifer L. Armentrout (and organized by Steph and Hannah ) that brings together a mix of Y…

Alexa's Adventures #13 | Book Events, Road Trips & Foodie Outings

I realized over the weekend that it's been a little too long since the last time I shared about what I've been up to lately, so I decided I needed to remedy that. I've always enjoyed being able to look back on these posts and see what I've been up to, and this one in particular is …

Alexa's Adventures #10 | Blue Box Cafe, The Little Mermaid + Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

While I'm pretty consistent about updating my Instagram to share all the fun things I've been up to, I realized that it had been a while since I'd managed to do that for the blog. (It's been a little while since I've blogged, really.) Since I'm feeling inspired to pick up t…

To All the Events I Got To Be Part Of | To All Boys I've Loved Before

To All the Boys I've Loved Before is one of my favorite book-to-movie adaptations ever. (Yes, I totally said it.) I'm thrilled that this film is finally up on Netflix for anyone with an account to view, and I'm hoping it reaches the levels of success it deserves! If you're not enti…

To Carpe the Heck Out of This Series | The Darkest Legacy Book Launch + The Darkest Minds Film

[I meant for this post to go up nearly two weeks ago, but blame summer brain (and so. many. activities.) for distracting me from getting some blogging done! But even though this is a little late, I thought, "Well, better late than never!"] July 30, August 1 and August 2 were all very spec…

ApollyCon 2018

It's been three years since the last time I got to attend ApollyCon , so I was looking forward to being there for this year's three-day event in the Washington DC area. While it might have started as an event where Jen celebrated the release of her new Titan series with author friends, it&#…

Alexa's Adventures #8

One of the things that I'm proudest of about last month is the fact that I managed to work out a fair bit. I'm not one for regular exercise (which is rather unfortunate, as I'm always wanting  to be physically fit and develop better endurance), but this month, for some reason, I just fo…

Alexa's Adventures #7

It's been a couple of weeks since the last time I shared all of the things that have been going on in my life . It's been a busy couple of weeks, with shows and book events, TV show binges and trip planning and reading pretty much monopolizing my time, but I can't say that I'm sorry…

Change The Game • Crooked Kingdom

It's been over a week since I finished reading this masterpiece, and I still fumble as I search for the words to accurately portray how incredible Crooked Kingdom  is. (And even incredible feels like an inaccuracy. It feels like an understatement.)  Six of Crows was my favorite book of 2015 , so t…

#StayPeculiar • The Charms of the Peculiar

When I got the invitation to attend an early screening of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children  (in theaters this Friday, September 30!), I was pretty psyched! Unfortunately, things did not work out in my favor, and I couldn't be there in person. Lucky for you guys, however, my husba…
