[Review] My Alcoholic Escape from Reality: Going Nowhere & Being Okay With That

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Published in 2021, this book is what truly made me fall in love with Nagata Kabi’s work. Before this, I had read her famous My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness memoir-manga and a few other titles, but this one really solidified me as a fan of Nagata’s work. The story follows her experience with pancreatitis at age 31, and like … Continue reading [Review] My Alcoholic Escape from Reality: Going Nowhere & Being Okay With That

[Review] She Likes Gays, But Not Me: Teenage Cringe + Honesty = A Good Read?

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Recently, the Barnes & Noble in my new hometown in South Carolina faced a scare when their rental contract was about to expire. The situation caused a lot of commotion and led to a huge sale, which, of course, sent me into full-on “buy-all-the-books” mode. I ended up picking up over ten volumes of various series—some I had already … Continue reading [Review] She Likes Gays, But Not Me: Teenage Cringe + Honesty = A Good Read?

[Recommended Read] Anime Hanabi’s “The Easiest Asian Language!”

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting As some of you may know, I’ve been on a (mostly quiet) journey to learn more about East Asian cultures and languages. I’m still building confidence when it comes to speaking, but I’d say I have a decent handle on reading and writing low-level Japanese and, lately, I’ve also been casually exploring Chinese and Korean. So when Anime Hanabi—a fellow … Continue reading [Recommended Read] Anime Hanabi’s “The Easiest Asian Language!”

[Review/Recommendation] The Amazing Digital Circus

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting Last week a lot happened that reenergized me and my passion for weird, animated, and wonderfully chaotic shows.

The film released on Friday, June 20, 2025, and if your YouTube feed is anything like mine (especially if you follow a lot of animation … Continue reading A Must Watch: KPop Demon Hunters

[Movie Review] How To Train Your Dragon – Live Action (2025): I’m Surprised

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I’m not sure what I was expecting here, but I’m sure it was not positive when first entering the theater. I’ve seen enough live action remakes to know that the story being a remake is really the key issue for me. A new version, if it were called that, would be much better received in my opinion. Something that’s … Continue reading [Movie Review] How To Train Your Dragon – Live Action (2025): I’m Surprised
