Read this without looking at what it's about
I wasn't sure what to expect when I began reading this book, believing it would show a satirical version of marriage, however, This exceeded my expectations.

Following the story of Roy Jr and Celeste, after just a year and a half of marriage, Roy is falsely incarcerated for a rape and their bond begins to fall apart. It puts the lense on how the American justice system breaks down marriages in African American families, but it also looks at how conventional ties no longer apply.

Written in a letter format for the majority, it is a beautiful and harrowing drama of a husband and wife as they struggle to cope in these situations. Great read.

Tarzan- I love this movie, this is one of my favorite animation films of all time. Its a classic.

The plot: In this Disney animated tale, the orphaned Tarzan (Tony Goldwyn) grows up in the remote African wilderness, raised by the gentle gorilla Kala (Glenn Close). When a British expedition enters the jungle, Tarzan encounters the beautiful Jane (Minnie Driver) and recognizes that, like her, he's human. Falling in love with Jane, Tarzan is torn between embracing civilization and staying with his gorilla family, which becomes threatened by the ruthless hunter Clayton (Brian Blessed).

Its a excellent and fantastic movie made by Disney before the 2000's. When the 2000's hit went on a downhill slop. But ill get to those movies.
