About Us

Outside the Nutshell

In our day to day lives, this peanut gallery consists of a college student, a high school student, and a middle school student. While grades can change, though, our tastes sure haven't. The three of us agree that clean reads and clean games are all the rage and that gore and smut are definitely not.

Our goal is to provide you with clean recommendations that can tell you why you might want to engage with it and why you might certainly not.

Stay tuned to learn more about what we're up to in our crazy world of peanuts!

Meet Our Peanut Gallery!

YA/Adult Book Reviewer

Heyo! Some of you may know me as The Frog Queen from TheFrogBlog, but in case you don't, allow me to introduce myself! I'm Anna, but I go by many names including Pearl, A.P. and Froggie. I love reading books and sharing my favorites with others! I'm always willing to try new things but I'm especially passionate about YA and anything pertaining to teens. As a college student, I don't have a ton of time to read and review things, but I try my best!

I also try to keep tabs on my writing progress on my writing Instagram, so feel free to check that out if you're interested! @annapearl.blogger

~ Terrified Hoodie ~

Semi-Professional Game Critic

Some say the Terrified Hoodie is a menace to society with his "chaotic energy" and "terrible puns." Others say he is the most talented writer of all time, with opinions so good that he can change the minds of the grouchiest old man in the world. Regardless, Terrified Hoodie is a legend, be that for good or for ill. He's been writing for almost a decade, although his earliest works leave everything to be desired. His love for video games, books, and storytelling through niche lenses has created a unique reading experience. In his spare time, he enjoys participating in church events, hanging out with friends, and playing video games. He also enjoys committing arson, just don't tell him I told you. I hope you enjoy the blog!
