Theme Park Press was kind enough to send me two copies of “The Easy Guide to your First Walt Disney World Visit” – one to review, and one to give away to a lucky reader! I will start off by saying that I’ve read a good number of guide books, and this is honestly one […]
Book Review: Before Tomorrowland
This book is a prequel of sorts to the movie Tomorrowland, though not having seen that yet I’m not quite sure where it will fit in. It took me awhile to get into this book – it started off with a couple of different plot lines that didn’t really come together until about 1/3 of […]
Avengers: Age of Ultron Review
I have to admit, I’m a bit of a late comer to the whole Marvel craze. I had seen the old Spiderman movies with Tobey McGuire way back in the day, but since then I hadn’t really seen anything. My brother is really into them though, so while visiting him one weekend we decided to watch […]
Cinderella movie review
Let me start out by saying this movie was much better than I expected it to be. If I’m being totally honest, I went into it not 100% thrilled that Disney was just doing another live action re-make – especially after my disappointment with Maleficent. Then we saw a “sneak preview” of the movie at […]
Book Review: The Beast Within
I had previously read Valentino’s other novel, “Fairest of All,” and I have to say I think I enjoyed this one even more. I was a little nervous to see what she would do with this story, as Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie, but I think it’s an interesting and entertaining […]
Into the Woods review
I should start this review by saying that I’m a huge Into the Woods fan. I’ve been performing in musical theater since I was 11 years old, and have seen tons of musicals. Into the Woods is my favorite – I saw the revival on Broadway three times. As a middle school student I would most […]
Big Hero 6 Review
Superheros are crazy popular right now, so it’s no surprise that Disney wanted to get in on the craze – aside from buying Marvel, of course, they now have their newest animated movie – Big Hero 6, a superhero movie aimed toward kids, but one that can be enjoyed by adults too. There were plenty […]
Book Review: Realityland, by David Koenig
Realityland is more or less a recount of the history of Walt Disney World, from when the idea was conceived back when Walt was still alive until the book was published in 2007. I found the book to be chock-full of great information and very captivating, and I would highly recommend it to all Disney […]
Runner’s Guide: Fitletic Hydration Belt
When I’m running long distances, there are a couple of things I definitely need. Two of them include some sort of belt or way to carry my items, and water. Water is essential for my running and I’ve found that my body needs a lot of it, and often when I run. Some people are […]
Book Review: the Curse of Maleficent
After I was underwhelmed with the Maleficent movie, I saw that there was a novelization made of the film. It’s called The Curse of Maleficent: a tale of a Sleeping Beauty, and is written by Elizabeth Rudnick. While this is a book that was written in conjunction with the film (i.e., it’s not a book that came […]
