This is the last book I decided to finish before I start reading for a very exciting project that I’ll start sharing with you all later this year. I saw a bunch of people I know reading this book last year, and I was intrigued. I’m usually the last one to catch on to book hype, and this one was no exception. This was another … Continue reading The Defining Decade by Meg Jay, PhD
I loved this episode so much. My new favorite character is Molly’s wig, it was so good! It was cool to see an episode that was completely about Molly with pretty much no interference from Issa. I wouldn’t be mad at a Molly spinoff. At the beginning of the episode we find out that Molly saw Issa coming at the end of the last episode, … Continue reading Insecure S4 E7: Lowkey Trippin’
I’m not sure where we’re going with this, but I don’t think I like it. So the episode starts with Issa ignoring people’s phone calls and texts. She’s also not responding to any of the posts on the Facebook page for the block party. As much as I’d like to admonish Issa for avoiding people, I really can’t because I’m her. She’s me. We are … Continue reading Insecure S4 E6: Lowkey Done
This is one of my new favorites, y’all. This book reminds me of Gone Girl in the way that it’s impossible to put down and it has so many good twists, but it’s even better. The social commentary in Such a Fun Age is brilliant, and it exposes an aspect of the way that black people and white people in the U.S. interact that I … Continue reading Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid
So we’re finally at the block party! Everything that’s happened so far has been leading up to this. To be honest, I was surprised because I thought that the block party wouldn’t take place until the last episode. What are we supposed to do now?? Does Issa have a plan for what she’s doing after this? Did she even get paid for this block party? … Continue reading Insecure S4 E5: Lowkey Movin’ On
Y’all. ANDREW TOOK THE CAKE! Last night’s episode was titled Lowkey Distant, which was perfect for all the stuff that went down. It seems like this season is Molly vs. everyone else, and I feel for Molly. I really want to see everything come together for her, but as her love life comes together, her friendship with Issa falls apart. This episode was full of … Continue reading Insecure S4 E2: Lowkey Distant
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge fan of Issa Rae. I’ve been watching Insecure since season one and I’ve been consuming as much of her content as I can ever since. So now that season four is out, I’m putting out episode recaps/reviews every Monday – new episodes premiere Sundays at 10 pm on HBO. Please keep in mind, these reviews … Continue reading Insecure S4 E1: Lowkey Feelin’ Myself
