MY 2018 WRAP UP! + LIFE UPDATE

~ Ellyn ~ 20 Comments

discussions_2018feature

Hey guys! Today I’m coming at you with my little 2018 discussion post. This one is a bit more personal than the usual but I figure, it’s the end of the year so that’s okay. 2018 has been pretty rocky for me, I started Uni, made great friends on and offline, one of my two brothers graduated from primary school and my other brother was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease. It’s been pretty hectic but I’ve also managed to achieve some pretty great things, I’ve even almost managed to reach 500 followers here on my blog (I’m at 499!)

THE TOP 12 MOVIES I SAW AT THE CINEMA IN 2018

~ Ellyn ~ 17 Comments

wrapupfeature1

Hey guys! It’s nearing the end of the year and so I’ve seen almost all of the movies I’m going to see at the cinema for the year! I still have Aquaman, Once Upon A Deadpool, Bumblebee and maybe Mary Poppins Returns, but honestly, I can see most of them in the New Year and ya girl’s tired.

But, one of my goals for 2019 is to talk more about movies here on my blog since they’re such a big part of my life irl, but I hardly talk about them with you guys! So, today I’m talking about the top 12 movies I saw in the cinema this year!

*You might notice that there are some pretty big films missing from this list, one big example being Infinity War but if I’m honest I’ve only seen that movie twice and I pass up all opportunities to ever rewatch it. You can read my review here but honestly, it just feels like a jumble of poor characterisation and I never get a happy or satisfied feeling from it, so… sorry???
If you want to find out about any of the other movies I’ve been watching this year, you can check out my Watching At A Glance series!

MY BOOKISH CHRISTMAS WISHLIST // BLOGMAS DAY 15

~ Ellyn ~ 3 Comments

Hey guys, welcome to day 15 of Blogmas! We’re officially well over halfway through Blogmas and well and almost halfway through the month which is absolutely nuts!

Today I’m coming to you guys with my Christmas wishlist and honestly it’s pretty small and mostly just the top 6 things I would love to read but unfortunately can’t get out from the library because they don’t have any copies. I’ve also been feeling pretty meh about my books and especially my shelves lately so putting more books on shelves that don’t relate to my comics section just makes me feel anxious and a tiny bit nauseous, though I’m sure I’ll feel differently about that on Christmas day when everyone is unwrapping presents.

~ Ellyn ~ 4 Comments

In an actual shocking turn of events, I didn’t really read many comics or graphic novels this year. I read a few at the beginning of the year around Comic Book Day and when I was participating in more readathons. So, for day 8 of Blogmas I’m talking about the top 4 I read this year, and hopefully, I’ll convince you to pick up some great comics or graphic novels in the new year!
