Look who finished a book

I‘ve been sick and obsessing about Disney Dreamlight Valley so this has been a long time coming.

Rise of the World Eater is the 3rd and final installment of the Frostheart series and I thought it was a good end to the series.

This was one of January‘s #bookspin #doublespin pick but I can‘t remember which.

ATOM: The Beginning Volume 1 | Osamu Tezuka, Masami Yuuki

so-so

I was a bit underwhelmed with this one. Lots of action but the art seems rather primitive to be honest.

Only a little more research: This was the seed of Tezuka‘s better known Astro Boy, back to 1952.

“Astro Boy is considered one of the most important anime & manga series of because it was a pioneer in the industry…while also being the first Japanese animated series…effectively introducing anime to Western audiences.”

Six of Crows | Leigh Bardugo

I enjoyed the first series in this universe, but this one is so much stronger. Bardugo really learned the lesson of not making the villain the most interesting character in the story; instead we have a crew of six young adults, all with their own challenges and darkness to overcome, on a terrific heist adventure. Can't wait for the next one.

Divergent | Veronica Roth

I like the new covers, and I‘ve been on an audiobook kick at work, so when this one was available on Libby, I figured why not? Allegiant was the first book I remember deciding to DNF in high school, and I want to see if this holds up from the 2010‘s YA Dystopia craze (spoiler: it does not). I hate the age/maturity gap between Tris and Four, I like the allegories Roth is trying to make, but I just…

State of the Union | Brad Thor

Even as a #longtimefed when I knew there was a chance he (yes, always a man) would say a sentence or two that pertained to my organization, no matter who was giving the SOTU address, I wouldn‘t watch. It‘s been mostly performative for a while now.

Tonight I might run the floor cleaner to drown out the TV in the other room, but more likely I‘ll watch Netflix with headphones.

melissajayne I‘m not going to watch either 1d

TieDyeDude It's just a group calisthenics class anymore, though I have a feeling the Dems won't be getting much of a workout this time. If any organization still utilized fact-checkers, I would have felt sorry for the long night they have ahead for them. 1d

dabbe I'd rather get five root canals. All at once. 👊🏻❣️👊🏻 (edited) 1d

Susanita @dabbe @AmyG Andy Borowitz said: Tonight‘s speech is called a Joint Address because the viewer can only address with a joint. (Not my thing but to each their own!) 1d

AmyG @Susanita Ha! 😂I read one where they said “the media expects the address to have the highest ratings in Russia”. 1d

How can I resist a cheesy amnesia plot?

KCofKaysville @snapsnarlgrowl I loved it when I was about 12! Cheesy plots and all. 2d

snapsnarlgrowl Right?! I got The Beasts of Tarzan and Tarzan the Terrible when I was about 10 years old. I‘ve been trying to start at the beginning and work my way back to Tarzan the Terrible, carnivorous triceratops and all! 1d
