Phenomenal
This book saved my life. Though this wasn't the first book published in the series, it's where the story truly begins. For fans of Drizz't Do'Urden who haven't started with this book, it's the best place to get to know our favorite Dark Elf. This book explores his childhood starting with the day of his birth and moving through everything that made him leave his home and take the first steps on what becomes an amazing journey.

My absolute favorite
Aaaahhhh this is just one of those that I just was not expecting I'm really not someone who watches loads of war movies but I'll try anything once and boy was I glad I did. The movie is amazing it really is special even in the catagory of war films. The fact that it's based of a true story makes it even better as it appeals to the history loving part of me.

Great App to entertain kids
This is one of my go-to apps to entertain my toddler while out and about. It has all your favorite Daniel Tiger songs and gives you suggestions on parenting and activities to do with your kids. The only downside is that it had to be connected to the internet to play the videos, so if your in a place without reliable internet be prepared for a sad toddler.

This app has been pretty solid for the last few years. I used it while on vacation, and the ease of checking in and boarding is appreciated while on vacation. My favorite feature is that even when your phone is in airplane mode/don't have internet, you can still access your boarding pass. Another super handy feature is the 'track my bag', so when they make you courtesy check your bag, you know exactly where it is located, and if it's on your flight.

Just as amazing as I remember it. You start out reading the novel, waiting for this huge plot and adventure t ounfold, and then you realize that you have been reading it since page. Mr. Alexander does not waste your time and effort with fluff.

On the second page, I was once again finding myself consumed in this novel meant for young adults. I have to say that it is still one of my favorite series, despite my age, and would recommend to any age.

Captain America: The First Avenger where I was finally sold on the concept of the Avengers in the MCU (I am not a RDJ/Tony fan). I love period films, so I was all for it. The characterization of Steve Rogers was spot on. Hugo Weaving was good as Red Skull, and I'm sad that the character won't be brought back ever. Hayley Atwell as Peggy is one of my favorite characters out of the whole MCU, and her intro in this movie was great.

This was an interesting story. After reading the author's note, I found out that the death in the family was actually voted on by the public because they did not like this incarnation of Robin. That was interesting and made me really think about the power of asking readers what they want out of the story. It was actually a pretty intense story overall. I am glad I read it, thanks Dad for putting it in my room to read, but it wasn't my favorite.

Adult version of our favorite fantasy books growing up
If you are a lover of fantasy and science fiction this book should be checked out. It is entertaining and smart and you wouldn’t want to put the book down.
  
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
2014 | Action, Sci-Fi
Disclaimer: All of the movies in Phase 2 of the MCU are nearly the same. Winter Soldier's just my favorite out of all of them.
One: I like Anthony Mackie as Falcon, he's a great addition to the MCU. Two: Scarlett Johansson was the perfect partner in this edition. I wasn't thrilled when they 'killed' Bucky off in The First Avenger, so I was all for Bucky returning as the Winter Soldier. It's a tightly paced film, and it's a good Captain America film.
  
An expedition to track a mythological creature in British Columbia is fraught with peril before they've even reached their destination. But who is behind the danger? While I often praise the mysteries in this series, this is my favorite because of the great twists and turns. And the reprint allowed him to add one sentence that took care of a plot hole from the first edition.
