Ryann Rodkey

SURPRISE 🥳

I wanted to tell you here first! I'm going to do something fun for the month of December and that is: 25 Movies in 25 Days! Now I know what you're all thinking.... Ryann, it's December 2nd and you didn't post a movie yesterday and I counter that by telling you there was going to be a movie yesterday, but it took 4 hours to upload and I fell asleep while it was uploading, sooooo 2 movies today!! WAHOO.

I also want to say, I'm trying my best to get this done and it's quite a bit of work...

The Bear 1x1 REACTION; carmy is an icon.

do I know anything about what is really going on? not in the slightest.... am I living for it? absolutely. I'm already loving carmy as a main character. he seems to be someone with an incredible work ethic, potentially to a fault but I'm getting the vibe he's doing his best to save this restaurant for his brother. so curious to know what happened to his brother and watch this group of characters really work together and turn this place around. I am LIVING for the family vibes going on here as...

Schitt's Creek 4x1 REACTION; things are progressing!

I am loving that this season started off literally the next day after the last episode and I love love love the conversations that were being had between David and Patrick in this episode. Patrick is such a healthy human with how he not only communicates, but also protects himself. I love seeing them interact, it feels so intimate and gives me all of the giddy feelings! now comes Alexis and ted, ohmygod, I love ted so much. I'm curious if ted is being totally honest or just trying to protect ...

Interview with the Vampire 1x7 REACTION; claudia is brilliant and I'm confused.

I have so many questions.... first of all, Claudia is SO ICONIC. I think she's my favorite for sure. I loved when we got to see things from

I have so many questions.... first of all, Claudia is SO ICONIC. I think she's my favorite for sure. I loved when we got to see things from her point of view in this show and I was so impressed by how she handled this entire situation and was able to get it to play out exactly how she wanted. she for sure fooled me. there were quite a few twists and...

Schitt's Creek 3x13 REACTION; SCREAMING, crying, and throwing up.

this is BY FAR my favorite finale out of the three seasons. THE FEELINGS THAT WERE HAPPENING. this is just the greatest. I cried quite a few times at literally any emotion possible. this show just hits me in all of the feelings, all the time. I was so happy to see Alexis graduate and ted show up, but also MOIRA. ugh, I'm going to cry again. also, do we even need to discuss how ADORABLE Patrick is? like we do. obviously, but I don't even think I have the words to express what's going on in my ...

Interview with the Vampire 1x6 REACTION; finally getting some answers!

we are ramping up to the finale of this season and whilst I'm slightly confused on how this episode ended, what an episode it was!! we really got to see the emotions get heightened between this trio with lestat trying to worm his way back into their lives. Claudia was very opposed, as she should be, and whilst it took some persuading, Louis was always going to let him back in. I LOVED getting to see Claudia beat lestat at chess and not even have to finish the game. that seemingly small intera...

Schitt's Creek 3x12 REACTION; uhm.... WHAT!?

the shock that coursed through my veins at what happened in this episode. OHMYGOD. anyway..... Alexis has passed her classes which is an incredibly huge win on her part and David and Patrick have officially both soft and hard launched Rose Apothecary and it was a shining success!! ugh- the fact that Patrick knew David wasn't going to get the light's done and did it for him... STOP. AND THAT HUG. 🩶

Interview with the Vampire 1x5 REACTION; lestat is the worst.

guys. I don't like him. although, I did really enjoy this episode and seeing the relationship between Louis and lestat get a little shaky once Claudia was gone. it was interesting to see her drive a wedge between them without her actually being there. I also really enjoyed getting to see another vampire, although, he was BAD news and I could feel it from the moment he appeared. hopefully, we will get to see more vampires, maybe ones with better intentions. the ending of this episode truly fel...

Schitt's Creek 3x11 REACTION; HE ASKED HIM TO STAY OVER!?

I am so cool about this. I'm not getting too excited at all. literally nothing even happened. nothing happened. why am I so hype about this!? but also- how adorable is ted!? he likes Alexis so much omg, the way I'm praying he's endgame lmao orrrrr that he at least ends in happiness and riding off into the sunset. he's the greatest. I love that Johnny did the garden for Moira, I thought that that was such a sweet gesture and I LOVED Stevie and David hanging out at Stevie's and having the conve...

Interview with the Vampire 1x4 REACTION; Claudia seems like a force.

I LOVED this episode! totally my favorite episode so far and over all, I am loving Claudia and beginning to loathe Lestat. I already knew he was manipulative and using things to get Louis to rely on him, but seeing the way he treated Claudia at the end there was gut wrenching and made me so angry. she was in so much pain already and really didn't need that shoved in her face. overall, I believe it to just be another tactic as he sees Claudia and Louis getting close and maybe fears losing cont...

Schitt's Creek 3x10 REACTION; this man is a weirdo.

I was soooooo happy that David had some ulterior motives going on here oh my- I was ✨stressed✨. luckily, I didn't really need to be. not to mention, seeing Roland and Johnny switch roles in a situation slightly was incredibly funny and I loved that Alexis got to be told straight up that ted probably isn't over her because now I feel like she's going to look at him a bit differently since it was an outside perspective. ughhhhhh I LOVE TED. 🩶

Interview with the Vampire 1x3 REACTION; is our narrator reliable...?

this is the first time so far in the show that I've really stopped and asked myself this question. yes, I believe, we were meant to at this point, but I'm actually quite surprised that I trusted Louis right off the bat to tell the truth, so this did rock my world slightly!! overall, I really enjoyed this episode and watching these two become more comfortable with each other and start to branch out and make relationships elsewhere, although, I didn't love it. I'm so curious to see where this i...

Schitt's Creek 3x9 REACTION; Moira has some explaining to do.

what happened in this episode is something I never thought would happen. in a million years. ever. it was actually quite an incredible thing to see 🤣 Patrick is so intriguing to me! I love how he keeps showing up and I'm getting ✨vibes✨. idk what exactly I'm getting, but I'm getting something and I'm loving it. not him picking out the frame!? stop. Johnny really made crack up this episode as well! 🩶

Interview with the Vampire 1x2 REACTION; learning all things vamp.

if there's one thing I love about vampire media, it's learning about the vampire lore for the world, so this episode was so much fun! getting to learn with Louis and watch him adapt to becoming a vampire was so interesting and overall just so much fun! I'm already seeing things about lestat that I don't like in regards to the relationship... but that's unsurprising. I'm very interested to see how Louis' business and his relationship with his family progresses going forward as well!! the actin...

Schitt's Creek 3x8 REACTION; I'm feeling.... something?

I don't what exactly I'm feeling but I'm feeling things with this new character PATRICK, hello!? I was not expecting him to tease David so intensely and I am LIVING for it. I cannot wait to see more of his character and especially him interacting with David, so hopefully we get more of that because he is just a treat!! I am so glad that Alexis also didn't know that Johnny had changed her paper, it made me so proud that she wanted to do it herself 🥹 as for Moira, I'm not surprised at all on...

Interview with the Vampire 1x1 REACTION; I got jump scared.

I tried so hard- I knew it was coming and somehow.... IT STILL GOT ME 🤣 anyway, while this show was literally nothing like how I would've ever imagined it, I truly had sooooo much fun with this first episode and really getting to know Louis as a character. I am loving getting all of the details of this relationship from the beginning and cannot wait to see where we go from here!! 🩶

Carrie Live Show

Come talk all things Carrie with me as it was out October Book Pick for the month!! 👻

Schitt's Creek 3x7 REACTION; she's actually back in high school!?

I was totally not expecting her to actually be going and sitting in a classroom, but I can already tell I'm going to love this content 🤣 I am so proud of David already for thinking everything through and hopefully making smart decisions for himself! I really hope it all goes well for him! same with Johnny, we got to see him continue to think about the motel and things that he is able to do to try to make it better and more inviting! overall, I really loved this episode and felt like it was...

Anne with an "E" 3x10 REACTION; this is the best day of my life.

I was SO satisfied with this ending, especially for a show that was cancelled and didn't have time to plan out a perfect ending. It felt like a complete story (even if I would KILL for more), I don't feel like we ended with a huge cliffhanger and I can move forward with this story. I had no reason to worry, everything worked out exactly how it should've and I was thrilled with the conversations being had in this episode. The only thing I would've wanted was a nice ending for Ka'kwet. I unders...

Schitt's Creek 3x6 REACTION; Johnny is putting in the work.

I am so impressed with all of the ideas that Johnny is coming up with, even if they aren't exactly panning out in a way that is helpful... he truly is giving it his all!! I loved seeing Stevie go out of her way to try to do something nice for Johnny as well! and the same goes for Moira helping Twyla out and making sure her party was a smash hit! Moira always warms my heart when it comes to her putting pride aside to help someone if she's able to! it's so exciting that David and Alexis are loo...

Anne with an "E" 3x9 REACTION; they keep missing each other!

the stress that I was feeling while watching this episode and following that letter as it kept getting messed with!? ugh! here's to hoping everything get's better in the last episode! the way Diana's parents reacted to her taking the test was WILD. also- I was so proud of both Matthew and Anne for going with Ka'kwet's parents to try to bring her back home even if they didn't get the job done. That entire situation is so heartbreaking and I really don't understand how they were able to get awa...

November Book Pick ❄️

We are reading The Night Circus this month with a live show to talk about it on December 3rd at 7pm Eastern time!! Can’t wait to see you there!!

The live show for Carrie will be November 12th at 7pm!

Schitt's Creek 3x5 REACTION; poor ted.

my man ted is going through it this episode but I love to see him get more confident as this episode went on with the things that transpired 👀 I was DYING when David grabbed the laptop and ran. I'm curious to see if Moira ever ends up being comfortable when it comes to being honest and transparent about situations as I feel like that is her biggest downfall. I feel like she's very scared of being judged or looked down on by the people of the town when in reality, I feel like they all are w...

Anne with an "E" 3x8 REACTION; I have full body chills.

guys... I love this show. I love these characters. ugh, why am I so attached!? I loved seeing so much of Ka'kwet this episode and her journey made me so emotional. I love that we are getting to see this story on our screens, it's such an important one. I can't wait to see if we get more of it in these last two episodes! GUYS IT HAPPENED. MY LOVE OF ANNE AND GILBERT IS PAYING OFF. I was living in this episode but also passing away at the same time. my little heart felt ready to burst. I am so ...

Schitt's Creek 3x4 REACTION; moves are being made!

this show always hits me out of absolutely NOWHERE. like why did I just well up with tears TWICE!? I love it so much and I love seeing the growth of all of these characters and their willingness to step in during hard times. this show really is such a breath of fresh air and I'm loving this season so far and how they are setting it up! I cannot wait to see where we go from here! 🩶

I gave my sister the challenge of randomly selecting 30 books off of my shelves and wrapping them up. Today, we dive in and see if she was able to select books that I will love.... or books that I will hate! How do you think she'll do? 👀

Anne with an "E" 3x7 REACTION; things are falling apart.

what a contrast from the last episode huh? 🤣 unfortunately, things are not looking too hot throughout this episode for quite literally ANYONE. however, I loved seeing everyone come together and work together to speak their minds on such important topics. anyone have a box of tissues!? this show is so incredible and I'm really unsure how this got cancelled! it's a crime! 🩶

Anne with an "E" 3x6 REACTION; things are heating up!

Not all in a good way either! we had a fair episode which I was LIVING for as well as Anne discovering more about how she feels towards Gilbert! however, we got to see Gilbert meet Winnie's family so I'm not exactly thriving right now, and neither is Anne because she saw them!! there may be two others who are also getting a little spicy but I won't name name's here! ugh, what a fun episode with some important, heavier topics being introduced at the end there! also, Matthew should've won. 🩶...

Between a library book sale and a Book Outlet sale, I did some damage 😅 I am currently on a slight book buying ban now that the holidays are coming so maybe this was just like a last hoorah of the year. that's what I'm telling myself anyway... Let me know if you've read any of these and what you thought of them!! 🩶

TV Show Poll Time!!! 🎥

Hello hello!! It's that time again for a TV show poll!!! So- I'm almost finished with Anne and I already have the next show completely filmed for after Anne, but I need something new to start watching! Since I have pretty much 4 seasons left of Schitt's Creek, you'll notice that the only options I've added in this poll have 1-2 seasons, as I want to try to do one longer show and one shorter show at a time so I don't get too overwhelmed! 

As always, you can choose as many options as...
