Drew's Story
Aww, this was like coming home and catching up with family you haven't seen in ages. In this novella, you find out what happened in Drew's life. Also great to catch up with Jesse the peanut butter eating, very demanding, countdown starting, family man.

Inspiring!
The Read-Aloud Revival podcast does a fabulous job of bringing a family culture of reading into your home. The host is always bright and cheerful, and I always feel inspired and ready to have some fun and engaging family time afterwards. Plus, I always have a new list of books to try out with my kids by the end. Guests include reading experts and various authors.

A History of Violence (2005)

Raw, emotional, powerful drama
Apart from the fact I love Viggo Mortensen, this film is not one of those violent action films, but actually about a family drama. The story plot may not have been original, however, the dramatic effect it had on the family was powerful and emotional. It really does raise the question how well do you know the people you love? And not in a melodramatic way.

After a convenience store robbery goes wrong, the villains take a family hostage in their own home. Unfortunately, the family has secrets that will create a nightmare for all involved. The twist on the hostage drama started out good, but it fell apart in the end when it got completely unbelievable.

Fun for the family
Surprisingly well aged even if some of the green screen effects are a little noticable. Still slightly creepy and inspiring. Gmork's monologue near the end is even more terrifying as an adult. If you're in the mood for something fantastical and a trifle silly and family friendly (except for maybe the sphinx statues) this is a movie for you.

Loved this debut novel, not only did I feel as though the story was one never quite told like this I really loved the way it captured real grief and how it can tear a family apart or bring them together and now race/gender is something that almost always impacts a persons life and outlook on things, especially in a mixed race family in the early 60s.

Family classic
A classic game that comes in hundreds of different themes. The rules are a bit complex and I still need to re-read them to refresh each time but once you get going it's great. It can be played by many players making it great for family get togethers.
  
Marriage Story (2019)
Marriage Story (2019)
2019 | Comedy, Drama
I enjoyed Marriage Story, for as much as one can enjoy that type of situation. It was frustrating and heartbreaking, and had some funny spots thrown in. It was a raw story of a family going through a divorce. (Granted, it was a family that had access to money for bulldog legal teams, so it was both, "easy," and ugly.) Adam Driver was great in his role as Charlie.
