Review: The Umbrella Academy Season 3
We’ve been waiting for Season 3 of The Umbrella Academy and now, the wait is finally over. And I, of course, have to give my commentary. I’ve got mixed feelings, so let’s get down to it. SPOILER ALERT: Read at your own risk. The First Episode Every season has to have its own foundation rather…

My Amsterdam Trip: Here’s What I Learned
It’s about 10AM and I’m at the airport in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. I’m about to board my plane back to Malta. I have mixed feelings about it. I enjoyed visiting Amsterdam and a part of me doesn’t want to let go of the good feeling you get when you’re traveling. But I also feel like…

I’ve Waited For 2 Years: It’s Now Time To Travel Again
3 weeks ago, I decided to book flights to Amsterdam. For those who know me, traveling is an essential part of who I am. It has a lot to with my relationship with Gozo (and I guess America too). All I had to do was click “confirm to pay” on RyanAir’s website. My finger hovered…

Detached: My Relationship With Gozo
My fellow earthlings, I am back. Yes, I took another break from my blog. I’ve realized that this space has more value than I’m actually aware of – there’s so much I can write here, I just need to come up with the ideas. Trust me, writing the blog articles isn’t the hard part. One…

Review: Beautiful World, Where Are You? by Sally Rooney
The last of the Sally Rooney trilogy (I like to think Rooney’s books are a trilogy), yes, this novel is about the world we live in. I think everyone today (in these past two years) can say that at certain points, we all questioned the world we live in. It’s so hard to see beauty…

Review: Normal People by Sally Rooney
Sally Rooney is a big name in literary circles right now. Her latest novel, Oh Beautiful World, Where Are You, hit the shelves this year (it’s on my to-read list!) making her one of the biggest names in Contemporary literature. Normal People was the book that defined her and there’s a big reason why. I…

Review: Spider-Man: No Way Home
Probably one of the most awaited movies of the year, Spider-Man: No Way Home sold out in minutes. I was lucky enough that my friend’s more obsessed with Marvel than me and got us tickets. This may be, by far, one of marvel’s greatest movies. So here’s a breakdown of how awesome No Way Home…

Review: Jesus’ Son by Denis Johnson
I remember the first time I heard the name “Denis Johnson”. It was back in Michigan, in one of my English classes, and for some reason the weight of that name triggered me to look it up. Now that I’ve read his iconic collection of short stories, I get why the name had such an…
