Another year is wrapping up – but more than that, so is another decade.

I know everyone is writing about the Best of the ‘10s, and I enjoy each and every one of these lists. I’m a fan of pop culture and I have a blog, so why shouldn’t I do something similar? But here’s the thing – sometimes I don’t catch every piecet of brilliant media out there. I’ve still got stuff on my TBR and TBW lists from both the past year and the past decade, so forgive me if I miss mentioning something; I’m trying to catch up!

For now, here are the things that entertained and inspired me during the ‘10s. And as the decade draws to a close, I’ll continue to play catch-up. If there’s something I failed to list which you think was absolutely amazing, please let me know in the comments so I can enjoy it later.
