Get your squad into fighting form with inspiration from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies’ stars! The Bennet sisters trained hard to take down zombies quickly and carefully – now you can use their methods to prep yourself for whatever threats Austen-Era England could throw at you. One thing each of these characters had in common (besides facing a horde of zombies)? None of them had a gym membership. These exercises can all be performed in your own drawing room with either no equipment or optional weight for added resistance.

What do you do when you need to take your Hamilton musical obsession one step further, even beyond reading the 832-page biography that inspired the musical? Read what the Hamilton characters are reading, of course.

No doubt everyone in the United States is familiar with the Salem Witch Trials. The story has been the inspiration of many a tale, including the newly released horror film, The Witch. And to make the story even stranger, 1692 was a leap year and arrest warrants were issued for Tituba, Sarah Osbourne, and Sarah Good on Feb 29^th. With all this mind, we at Quirk wanted to take a look at the many witches that have cast a spell on our pop culture, and how they would fare in a good old-fashioned cage match.  

Thanks to our childhoods being filled with Clue and Murder, She Wrote if there’s a mystery to be read we’re all gimme, gimme hands. Here's our list of the 2016 mystery/thriller/suspense books that you’ll want on your TBR list.

Here at Quirk we’ve spent the week searching the internet for the best bookish, geeky, and crafty links for you to enjoy. Whether you are looking for a new DIY project or some inspirational poetry, we’re sure to have something to make your day amazing.

We at Quirk love a good board game almost as much as we love a good book. (Okay, maybe not quite as much as a good book.) So naturally, why can't we have both? Each month, we're going to reimagine a classic board game with a literary and pop culture twist! This month, inspired by our childhood Paul Bunyan version, we decided we wanted to re-imagine Pick-Up Sticks: but with a Shakespearen twist!
