School is finally out! April was a meager month of new content for me, as I was studying for finals, presenting, and writing lots of essays. Last month I only read one book, Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie M. Cottom. It is an insightful read from the lens of intersectional black feminism, and though I did not agree with all of Cottom’s points, I was able to understand her viewpoints.
- Good Will Hunting
- Super Mario Bros
- Water for Elephants
- Demon City Shinjuku (I’ve been wanting to watch this for awhile; it was just alright, unfortunately!)
- Joy Luck Club ❤ ❤ (A new favorite of mine, so beautiful and heartfelt!)
- Abbot Elementary Season 2 (Even better than the first)
- Stardust
- All 11 Seasons of Modern Family (This was another rewatch for me. If you love this show, skip seasons 8 and 9!)
- When a Man Loves a Woman (I was not a fan of this movie, but it had some promise!)
- Some Kind of Heaven (An Interesting Documentary about a retirement home village in Florida, the largest of its kind)
I’m so excited to fill the summer with lots of new movies, books, and shows!
