Fall Reading List: And Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell is a tearful and terrifying tale

I rarely cry read a book that makes me cry, despite being someone who reads books almost exclusively about murder. I teared up a few times when I was reading And Then She Was Gone. As I read the Epilogue I started bawling, squinting at the last words on the page through watered-down eyes. As difficult as it is to conclusively determine this, I think I can confidently say this is my favourite Lisa Jewell book I've read.

Early in 2020, Craig Myers and I were sitting on the set of a short film discussing our next projects. Craig had recently begun taking a course on sustainability, and I had been kicking around the idea of making a travel series focused on exploring our backyard. Through two days of chatting, we honed in on shooting a series in Algonquin Park. Craig is from Ottawa, and I am from Hamilton, but we both grew up with a connection to camping and cottage country, so the draw to the park was pretty natural. As we prepared the project, Brad and Mitch joined on as our cinematography team, both of them having a love for cinematography and exploring the natural world made it a perfect fit.
Canadian's give thanks: Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving, especially those who are isolated this year
I hope you all had a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! The pandemic has made it difficult for families to get together this weekend. I know how isolating it can be living alone and not being able to visit family. Virtual visits and phone calls just aren't the same. I missed the hugs, the homecooked meal, and the playtime with my nephew. To all of you who are alone this holiday season, I want to send you my love. It's tough but we will get through this. Hold your pets and cherish the moments that you have with the people you love. Find ways to visit from afar. But most of all, stay safe.

Horror
movie night: Witch, satanic and cult collection
A cackle in the distance; a spell cast in the night. It's
no secret to anyone who knows me that I LOVE witches! I love everything about witches;
spell casting, demon raising and cultish covens. When I was a teen my friends and I were obsessed with The Craft. Grab your book of shadows and
get spooked by these satanic and spellbinding thrillers! This list contains
horror movies that are perfect for planning a creepy night of demons, witches
and exorcisms. Good or bad, these movies are made to entertain- whether your
laughing at how terrible they are or scream in horror.

Horror
movie night: Vampire and blood sucker collection
A bat swoops down from the sky as you feel cold fingers
wrap around your neck one by one. His seductive gaze draws you in and hypnotizes
you, and you don’t realize his long fangs are sinking deep into your neck. What
is Halloween without a spooky vampire movie! This is a list of old and new
vampire horror films to scare the fangs off of you! Good or bad, these films
are just what vampire horror movie lovers crave and are full of blood for the
drinking. So toss Twilight out the window and see vampires as they were meant
to be seen- kings of the undead.
