Happy is a 2011 documentary that’s currently streaming on Netflix (US), Amazon Prime Instant Video, and possibly also Hulu (I haven’t been able to confirm that – if you know, please do comment). It’s one of the most thought-provoking and interesting documentaries that I’ve seen, and since I know many of you enjoy documentaries and nonfiction about the brain and the human body, I wanted to review it. My kids love a video app called … Continue reading Happy→
So One Direction announced their breakup this week, which prompted us to remember this wonderful Friday Video: the Roundabout Theatre Company’s cast of Anything Goes lip-syncing You Don’t Know You’re Beautiful. Link! I hope your weekend is everything beautiful.
Jane and Sarah have a long chat with Jay from Joyfully Jay. She answers curious questions about male/male romance, such as, is all m/m erotic? (Spoiler alert: nope!) We talk author and book recommendations, gaynesia, audiobooks, and the m/m romance community as well.
Since Jane Litte announced that she’s a published author under the pseudonym Jen Frederick, I know there’s been a lot of talk and questions and processing and discussion, and to be honest, I haven’t known exactly what to say. Then Dabney emailed me some questions which helped me articulate a lot of things I’ve been thinking about, and helped me organize my brain. So forgive the obvious and kinda pretentious format, but being asked helped … Continue reading Answering Questions: Jane Litte/Jen Frederick→
Just One Night by Lauren Layne is 99c! This is a contemporary romance and the third book in Layne’s Sex, Love, and Stilettos series. The heroine plays a sex columnist who has very little experience in the sex department. We’re talking only one, lone sexual experience. And well the hero…he’s now her own personal guinea pig. Readers thought Layne found the right blend between sexy and funny, while some disagreed and found the content more serious than the cover lets on. It has a 3.9-star rating on GoodReads.

A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night is being marketed as “The first Iranian Vampire Western.” It has elements of film noir, Western, horror, and romance. It’s finally available on iTunes and will be available on DVD April 21. I adored this movie – it’s a quirky romance as well as a subversive feminist horror movie with minimal gore but lots of suspense and an amazing amount of dry humor. The plot is pretty simple. A … Continue reading A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night→
Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett is $1.99 at Google:Play and Amazon, and $3.99 elsewhere. This is a frequently recommended starter book for the Discworld series – I know Elyse’s husband recommends it vigorously. This book has a 4.28-star average on Goodreads, and is part of one of my favorite categories: Fantasy > DRAGONS.

It’s not secret that I am an unashamed Laura Ingalls Wilder fangirl. I was given Little House in the Big Woods at about 7, and have carefully rebuilt my read-to-shreds copies from when I was a kid to the expensive heavy duty paper, full color illustration ones. I wanted a sunbonnet, so I could wearing it trailing down my back. The first time I ever tried to make a recipe based on vague instructions in … Continue reading Pioneer Girl by Laura Ingalls Wilder→
This HaBO is from Sal-Pal who is looking for a sample read recently – but not too recently: This has been eating at me for months because I think I only read the first chapter maybe a year ago, and it was definitely an ebook (so it may have been a sample?) and believe it’s fairly recent, as in from the last 3-5 years. All I remember is that the hero is a police officer … Continue reading HaBO: In the Sample, The Hero Handcuffs Himself→
