Have you seen Everything Everywhere All at Once yet? We saw it last night, and I'm obsessed. I think it may be one of my favorite movies of all time. Fair warning - it's an A24 movie so it's weird, but it's one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.
I have a serious movie hangover so please tell me something you've enjoyed watching lately - movie, series, sports, youtube...

Book Review | Upgrade by Blake Crouch ⭐⭐⭐★★
Finished Reading
Upgrade by Blake Crouch ⭐⭐⭐★★ - I enjoyed this for all of the reasons I love Blake Crouch, but it wasn't a favorite {Upgrade review}
Currently Reading
A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers - I love Becky Chambers. She always makes me feel seen and so hopeful.
Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky - I'm enjoying my reread of Children of Time. I have ~150 pages left. I'm excited to be able to read Children of Ruin soon.
Currently Watching
I mentioned Everything Everywhere All At Once in the beginning of my post, and I'm mentioning it again. Loved it.
This post is being shared as part of Book Date It's Monday! What Are You Reading? and Caffeinated Book Reviewer's The Sunday Post.
I need to try that movie! I also should probably try the Blake Crouch book as I read one of his before. Hope you have a good week!

Let me know if you wind up watching it!
DeleteYours is the lowest review I have seen for Upgrade. Sorry it wasn't a favorite.
ReplyDeleteI'm a jerk lol
DeleteI haven't even heard of that movie. I will have to keep an eye out for it,
ReplyDeleteYes! I hope you are able to come across it. I should have mentioned it's only available for rent so far.
DeleteOkay I have NOT seen that movie but I just watched the trailer and yeah... looks good! Plus that one dude from Big Trouble in Little china is in it (if that's him) and right there I was like- sold. Ha.
ReplyDeleteUpgrade I'm not sure about- I LOVED Dark Matter but Recursion a little less, so...
I agree about Chambers. Have you read the space nuns novellas Sisters of the Vast Black and Sisters of Forsaken Stars? Very similar vibe to me- not quite as sunny but still very much the same kind of SF, I think...
It is him!! I hope you get to watch it. Let me know if you do! I haven't read those - thank you so much! I just put a request in at the library!
DeleteI hope you have a great reading week!

So, you're going to laugh or roll your eyes, lol. My husband has neurological issues with his eyes. He does need glasses, but it's very difficult to get the right prescription for him because of the neurological issues. Anyway, whenever we watch movies with subtitles, I have to read them out loud for him. We tried watching Everything Everywhere All at Once, but there were too many subtitles. :( He's been wanting a new tv, so I convinced him to get the 85" so that the subtitles are large enough for him to read on his own. It'll be here on the 18th. The first movie we're going to watch is Everything Everywhere All at Once. LOL.
ReplyDeleteNo eye rolling from me. I have to read subtitles for one of my kids with visual impairment. I'm pretty sure most of the Everything Everywhere All At Once subtitles were at the beginning. I remember wondering if we'd be able to watch since my cat is obsessed with TV and blocks the subtitles. lol I hope you love it! It's WEIRD but so good.
DeleteOne of these days I'm going to have to read something by Becky Chambers. I keep seeing her books around. Upgrade was my first Blake Crouch. I liked it. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to read Becky Chambers *and* more Crouch. :)
DeleteYour books look good! Thanks for sharing, and here are my WEEKLY UPDATES
ReplyDelete😊
DeleteUpgrade is on my list and I have a hold on it. I still have to get to Recursion too!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I hope you get to read both of those.
DeleteGlad to hear you enjoyed Everything Everywhere All at Once. Take care and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sara!
DeleteI feel the same about Upgrade - was okay but wasn't my favorite, didn't hook me the way Blake Crouch does usually! And I haven't seen Everything Everywhere All at Once yet but I want to SO BAD! I'm excited to hear that you loved it so much!
ReplyDeleteI hope you wind up loving it, too, once you get to see it!!
DeleteI am dying to see Everything Everywhere All at Once, I love hearing you're obsessed with it!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to watch it!!
