Beetlejuice Beetlejuice exceeded my expectations, I was very happy with how much I enjoyed it!! If you're a fan of Beetlejuice and Tim Burton, you're going to love this movie. The use of practical effects, makeup, and stop motion animation was such a great decision and truly stayed faithful to the original movie while taking it a step further. I enjoyed seeing the original actors revisit their roles and they were incredible. I've seen mixed reviews online, the criticisms are valid but you really need to see it for yourself to form your own opinion. Overall, this was such a fun watch and it really got me in the mood for Halloween.

Just finished reading The Picture of Dorian Gray and I have to say that it is now my favourite book ever!! This was a novel that I only knew by name and I always wanted to give it a read to see what it was all about. I read a preview of the first chapter through Kindle and was immediately hooked, so much so that I went to the library the next day to borrow it. Oscar Wilde’s writing is beautiful, thought-provoking, and also easy to understand. The way he describes the scenery paints a vivid image in your mind. I could picture exactly what Basil Hallward’s garden looks like, and the many rooms in Dorian Gray’s house. I am a big fan of gothic literature so I enjoyed this book very much. I recommend reading this book while drinking a cup of tea and listening to classical music. It immerses you into the story and makes for a great reading experience.
