April 2017 Releases On My Radar

So what’s releasing this month that I’m excited about? As far as movies go, I’m highly anticipating the blu-ray/DVD releases of Hidden Figures and The Girl With All the Gifts. I’m also intrigued by Split and The Founder which I have yet to see but are both on my watch list, so I’ll definitely be moving those up my Netflix queue when those become available later on.

On the TV side, Angie Tribeca is back on TBS and that’s all that matters in regards to returning shows this month as far as I’m concerned. I’m also really looking forward to the new NBC comedy, Great News. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen Nicole Richie act and she’s great at it. I loved her arc on Chuck back in the day and really hope this comedy is good overall and takes off because I’d love to see her on my TV screen from week to week. What are you looking forward to this month?

As for books… stay tuned for my review of Alex and Eliza: A Love Story by Melissa de la Cruz as I’ll be on the official blog tour for that highly anticipated title. I’m also really looking forward to reading The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli and Literally by Lucy Keating. You may remember how much I loved Becky’s debut novel, Simon vs. the Homosapiens Agenda, so to say that I am excited for her second novel is an understatement. I have yet to read Lucy Keating’s work, so I’m very excited to read a new to me author soon!
