Everything & Nothing
A look back at 2025 as experienced through travel, music, bike rides, movies, and books.
FAVORITE MOVIES 2024
My list of favorite moves I watched in 2024.
FAVORITE BOOKS 2024
A list of my favorite books and comics from 2024.
FAVORITE ALBUMS 2024
A list of my favorite albums I discovered in 2024.
SILENT NIGHT 3
Fear Street Super Chiller #11: Silent Night 3 was the worst of the Reva Dalby trilogy, but it was still a fun read. YOu can tell RL Stine really enjoys writing Shadyside's resident mean girl.
GOOSEBUMPS RANKED from Almost Great to Best
The Second half of my Goosebumps official ranking, starting with the almost great and counting down to the best.
GOOSEBUMPS RANKED from Worst to Slightly Better
The first half of my Goosebumps official ranking, starting with the absolute worst and counting down to the mediocre middle.
MONSTER BLOOD IV
Goosebumps #62: Monster Blood IV managed to surpass my basement low expectations and become my favorite of the Monster Blood books, but that still wasn't enough to make it good. This is also the final book in the original Goosebumps series, and will therefore be my final Goosebumps review. It's been real but I'm glad to be done!
I LIVE IN YOUR BASEMENT
Goosebumps #61: I Live In Your Basement was a trippy. If you have ever wondered: what if David Lynch wrote a Goosebumps book (he would never), then it might read something like this. It was a bit rough in spots, and I wasn’t sold on the ending, but I still enjoyed it overall.
WEREWOLF SKIN
Goosebumps #60: Werewolf Skin was a fun one. I enjoyed the premise and the characters, and I liked it better than the other werewolf Goosebumps book. This one felt like a fresh take.
THE HAUNTED SCHOOL
Goosebumps #59: The Haunted School might be my favorite Goosebumps book, or at least close to it. I'm undecided. Regardless, it was a very pleasant surprise after the last two books.
DEEP TROUBLE II
Goosebumps #58: Deep Trouble II was a mess, but it had a logic-defying villain that I am low-key obsessed with. I love a relentless pursuit of terrible ideas.
MY BEST FRIEND IS INVISIBLE
Goosebumps #57: My Best Friend is Invisible was not a great book. It was more like a bunch of ideas smashed together that didn't really fit.
