Omg omg omg
Ok ok, so it’s been a few years since I devoured this series, yes I said devoured. Charlaine Harris became one of my favorite authors upon reading this book and the next thing I knew the series had been read and my life was never the same.

Say hello to Sookie, a good hearted, beautiful blonde belle that can hear the thoughts of others. The world she lives in is one where vampires are real and omg walk amount us “normal” folk! This first novel introduces us to Sookie and her family, her grandmother who we all end up loving and her brother who is a dumbass but a cute one, so I guess that equals out. Things get crazy for Sookie and her life and friends when their small little town gets their first vampire. Bill. Ahh Bill. Bill frustrated me but whatever. In attempts to not contain spoilers I’m just going say, if you enjoy crazy supernatural reads with gore and lust and magic with a dash of murder mystery and crazy turns this book (this series) is for you.

Finally! On a console!
It may have taken a while, but we finally have game boy style Pokemon game on a console! At last, shouting it at my handheld has finally paid off!
And the results... pretty good.
It's nothing new, you are a youngster, allowed to leave home to hunt your Pokemon companions.
Unlike the other games, you gain XP for your Pokemon through trainer battling and catching wild Pokemon, weakening them to catch has been eliminated and the motion controls have been engaged to enhance the catching experience.
There is the posh pokewalk controls, which are not realy worth the money, though if you are realy after the full experience it may be a must.
It seems to be glitch free, cute, fun, and best of all, I CAN RIDE MY CHARIZARD!!!!! You have to get down every time there is a slight obstruction, but dam it's fun.
It does also link with the Pokemon Go phone app, though I have not got this far in the game yet, but I look forward to it.
Fun for kids, and a nice throwback to Pokemon Yellow for the old fans, it's well worth a play, I just hope things "evolve" (sorry) ready for the next instalment.

This book is interesting in the way the cover art. It a curious cover in a way that makes me want to pick it up and read it. I know from the title of the book what it about. The author does a wonderfully good job bringing in the reader.

I was curious about what the two animals were going about it. Though it looks like one friend is trying to explain about trains to a new friend. This seems apparent. In a way, he keeps it up to convince the friend of the raccoon. In a way that is not mean or annoying.

The picture is done well. They are cute and enjoyable. I could see the squire talk and express this love of trains. The way it ends makes me think he loves talking about trains. If you love trains he might want to teach his new friend all about them.

Parents and children will love this book “Do You Like Trains?”. It is good for teaching and learning about trains. It good train lovers and children that love trains. Children will love this book in the sense that it doe have some rhyming. Parents can read this to their children. Grandparents could read this to their grandchildren.

Noah Centineo movie again!
This is a pull on your heart strings kind of romantic film.

It all starts with a young highschool girl, she's not the pretty one she's not the popular one, but she has brains. The popular girl in school thought it would be funny to give her number to a good looking guy (Noah Centineo) instead of her own. End result being Sierra finally gets to have a phone connection with this hot jock, knowing he thinks it's Veronica the popular girl she cuts a deal she will help the popular girl become or atleast seem smart in return she helps her get closer to the guy, not that it would work out cause he would have to find out adventurly.

For people with confidence issues, for people that don't love themselves this film is a great one to get into. It just shows how the shallow can have there own problems and the low self-esteemed can have it all. We all remember being young and starting to talk to someone the late night phone calls, the butterflies, just getting to know someone and having that romantic connection. It's a cute film

Definitely worth the watch.

For the most part, I really loved this film. I already loved the first one, I love the novels, so I had high hopes for this movie and almost all of them were made. Anyone who knows me knows how frustrated I get when I read a book and the corresponding show or movie just doesn't do it justice. I didn't feel like that with the first one and truthfully, I don't feel like that with this one. I am actually really happy with the way it turned out. I loved Jordan Fisher as John Ambrose McClaren and I have a special place in my heart for Noah Centineo. Of course, Lana Condor is amazing.

The ONLY thing I didn't like was the small changes in plot and character development. There are parts that, if you read the book, really push the characters and show who they are and what type of person they are the small changes I feel like take away from that. Maybe I'm too picky? I don't know.

Overall, I seriously loved this film. It's super cute and a great sequel to the first. I'm eager for the third installment and I HOPE it comes it before the end of the year!!
