Review of issue #12, Satisfaction, of Apparition Literary Magazine
Enola Holmes (Review)
Enola Holmes is a delightful way to spend two hours of your time. Come for the writing, stay for the acting.
The Mindflayer (Stranger Things, Season 3: Review)
I’ve been in love with Stranger Things since the premier of season 1, before I had a clue what it was about. The series is a wonderful homage to past science fiction and horror films, as well as a solid cultural reference for the 1980’s. I’ve found it amazing all the little things they get…
The Wright Brothers (Review)
Wherein I review the history book, The Wright Brothers, by David McCullough.

It’s not a series I’ll ever watch again, and it…
Sweet Christmas (Reviews)
