Shadowhunters Recap: Sword Fights, City of Glass, Death, Black Wings and White Blonde Hair
9:00 PM
We're one episode away from the official end of Shadowhunters. That's right: one more episode left. If that doesn't break your heart, the episode will.
This week, I have a very special treat for you guys! Sayde Scarlett stopped by Booked J to chat about a topic I rarely see explored in the book community, but one that I'm ecstatic to share with you guys. Special thanks for Sayde for agreeing to be a guest poster here--without further ado, let's get down to business!
Caitlin's recovery and one of her moms, ill-timed fashion shows and disgruntled side characters, oh my!
Get ready to Rise for a strong debut. I swear, one day I won't make cheerily dumb jokes. Today is not that day.
Get ready for your next fantasy obsession. I knew I was going to love this after reading the synopsis. "...this time, she'll be doing the saving. If she can stop rolling her eyes." Yes, please.
Back in the day, aka 12 YEARS AGO (???)

"I love you, Jace, but I won't let you stop me." HERE WE GO! Another Monday, another new episode of Shadowhunters. Will Malec and Clace break our hearts again? Will Sizzy join them? Project endgame has commenced.
Get ready for Jagger Jones and the Mummy's Ankh by Malayna Evans! It's time for the cover reveal. Are YOU excited?! You know the drill, continue now to get all the details.
I am so glad I finally got to this book. It was exactly the mood boost that I needed. All the good things that I've heard of 180 Seconds didn't prepare me for how brilliant it was and Jessica Park is truly on fire.
Magic is in the air. Caraval is almost over--and I'm here to celebrate it while we can. I'm not getting emotional, YOU'RE getting emotional. I'm not ready to say goodbye! Although the series is nearing its end, the memories of it will stick with me for the rest of my life. If you're interested in talking about and saying goodbye to this series, you can join in here.

Page to Screen: After (2019) Based on the Novel of the Same Name by Anna Todd
10:10 PM
The controversial Wattpad story has now come to life on the big screen.
Despite what Refinery29 tells you in this otherwise good article, and how so many places are trying to market the film: After is NOT YA. It is NA.
It's someone's birthday! Happiest of birthdays to you, Toni Cox!
And guess what? She's got a gift for you.
I accidentally had this recap queued for next Wednesday, instead of its original air-date. I suck! Of Lies, Peanut Brittle, Hit and Runs and Drugs. Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists, again, loses its steam and relies on old tricks instead of new. Let's hope it picks up again as the series progresses, considering the pilot really set the stage for some mysterious and fashionable excellence.
