Fun Adventure
Another film that seemed to pop out of no where. A light hearted comedy adventure film. In a similar mould to @Romancing the Stone (1984) The cast is very good, Daniel Radcliffe seems to have reprised his role from Now you see me 2 as a crazy rich villian in a suit after some ancient treasure in a lost city. So he kidnaps an author of a romance, action book believing her research could hold a clue.
It's pretty silly stuff but it definitely leans more towards the comedy side than anything else and thankfully is genuinely funny and has a a witty script. So if you are looking for a laugh with some funny action scenes thrown in, check this out.

Murder at the Lighthouse
After being laid off from her job as a reporter, Callie Padget has returned home to Cattail Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina and landed a job at the local bookstore. She is forced to face a tragedy from her past when a friend falls from the island’s lighthouse almost on the anniversary of her own mother’s tragic death at the lighthouse. Callie doesn’t buy the official police ruling of suicide, especially since the victim had just found the first clue to a treasure hunt. Can Callie figure out what really happened? Is the treasure hunt related to the death?

Despite the vacation island setting, this book does have a bit of a more serious tone thanks to Callie’s own past and how the current death impacts some of the characters. It’s a delicate balance that this book handles well. I quickly came to love the characters, and I can only see that love growing as the series progresses. The plot has a bit of a relaxed pace, but it does get us to a logical conclusion. I loved the setting; I can see myself spending a week on the island on vacation. I also appreciated how this book used all the senses to bring the setting to life. This book would be fun on a vacation, but if you are looking for a virtual vacation, you’ll be extra glad you picked this one up.

Nicolas cage's wildest adventures pt 1
Contains spoilers, click to show
The best part of this movie is nicolas cage he steals the show. Also sean bean as the villian and he doesnt die is a sin. Sean bean dies in every single movie he's in. So not letting him die in this film is a sin. Nicolas cage also steals the decloration of indepence at one pont because their is a treasure/map on the back, no biggy, not a problem for nicolas cage.

Whats next steal the statue of liberty, climb on top of the empire state buliding or climb on top of mount rushmore.

I stretched this read as far as I could because I simply didn't want it to end. Getting lost within the pages was simply beautiful. As I read this well written storyline, I could hear the characters as if they were sitting right next to be telling me the story.

Whether you are a fan of Beauty and the Beast or simply just fairy tales then this book is a beautiful treasure that you will cherish for years and years to come.
