Men, Monsters, and Mirrors: A Defense of Adaptation from The Odyssey to Bridgerton
After sitting down to watch Christopher Nolan’s new film adaptation of The Odyssey, my mind hasn’t stopped spinning. For the past couple of years, EPIC: The Musical by Jorge Rivera-Herrans has pretty much consumed my life. I knew the beats of Homer’s story forward and backward because of it. So sitting down to watch Nolan’s […]
Book Review: A Deep Dive into The Kingmaker Chronicles
If you are a fan of epic fantasy romance where the emotional stakes are kept just as high as the physical battles, then you have hopefully crossed paths with “The Kingmaker Chronicles” by Amanda Bouchet—or you absolutely should. As part of my personal mission to expand my reading horizons and finally give myself permission to […]
Book Review: A Court of Sugar and Spice
Unwrapping a Different Kind of Holiday Classic Imagine a world where the sugar plum fairies are not just delicate dancers in tulle, and the nutcracker prince holds secrets far more intense than a wooden jaw.

An Audiobook Review for The Auction by Sadie Kincaid
Hearing the Lore Alive: An Honest Reaction to “The Auction” Audiobook There is something entirely transformative about hearing a story come to life through audio.

I Had to Steal 16 Hours to Remember How to Cry
Here’s the promised update to this post: https://trinitycrescentcreations.com/2026/06/02/the-desire-to-re-read-a-book/ So I did end up, three days later, stealing 16 hours for myself to revisit The Heir and The Crown by Kiera Cass. And, complete honesty, I forgot how much this set of books 4 & 5 in The Selection series makes me cry. There is so […]
Busy Posting Day
Lots going on! First, my schedule as an author got kinked up: Second: Despite the kinks, or maybe because or them and the fact that I felt driven to feel like I did something to get eyes on my work today, I posted a SingTaLiSing project for Renaissance of Self. This song officially appears in […]
