I stopped updating my 18 in 2018 project pan for a couple reasons, but mostly because they were boring. They weren’t fun to write, and I think that came across in my articles. I do, however, feel really good about the products I used up, and I’m making goals for next year too.

This Lie Will Kill You by Chelsea Pitcher
I got this ARC in the mail the other day, and couldn’t be more excited. It came in a lovely pink envelope, and had an invitation to readers, inviting them to this book of mayhem and mystery. After having read the synopsis, I knew I was going to like this book.
I devoured This Lie Will Kill You! It was an incredible read, full of horror and mystery, and everything a girl could dream of. Read More »
To Be Honest by Maggie Ann Martin
I had seen a couple positive reviews for To Be Honest floating around instagram, so I picked it up and finally read it! The cover color (my favorite teal) definitely helped convince me that I needed this book, and I’m so glad I read it.
Working Nerdery
I wear a lot of nerd stuff, all the time. But because I’m someone with a 9-5 office job, I can’t always wear whatever I want; I have to dress it up a bit. So, two weeks ago I decided to wear something nerdy to work every day, and see if it made anything weird. Guess what Fangirls? It didn’t. We live in an age where nerdy clothing is accessible and common enough that we can wear it to the workplace! Here are some of the ways I dressed up my nerd wear.
Nerds Gotta Play: Betrayal at House on the Hill
Not only do I love video games, I’m also a huge fan of board games and table top games. My all time favorite game right now – and it’s very appropriate for Halloween time – is a co-op of sorts that focuses on a team entering a creepy old house. It’s called Betrayal at House on the Hill, and there are literally 100 ways to play.
The Fate of the Furious
I saw this movie on Sunday and am still processing it. Wow. It was phenomenal and I can not get over any of it. Also, I’m grateful to the boyfriend who suggested we go early to avoid crowds; there were 2 other couples in the theatre with us, and the ones that sat in the same row as us were as excited as we were, so it felt great to see it then.
I’m really excited about this movie but I have to tell you right now, there will be spoilers strewn throughout this article, so consider this your…
SPOILER ALERT
The Bounty Hunter Code
Fangirls, I love Boba Fett. I know he’s a bit overrated, and he isn’t down doing too much in the movies, but I love him. I think he’s a neat character who the extended universe has give a lot of life to (and even if Disney made EU not matter anymore, they’re doing stuff about him). The Bounty Hunter Code is a book that isn’t about him, but is designed around people’s love of Boba Fett; it has a mythosaur skull on both the front and back covers, and his Bounty Hunter patch on the binding. That is because this book is assumed to have been bound by him, and was found in Slave 1 (his ship). It includes annotation from Boba, Greedo, and some other bounty hunters who have had their hands on this text some way or another.
