I Go With God is a good decent book for young children. The pictures are clear and tell the story. The plot I believe the story is being sick and prayer. Then again it could be just about Prayer.

This little boy seems to learn some things and that asking god is a good thing to do. It also seems to be something you may be able to go anywhere. The pictures are the story. The message is that you can pray to go and ask for help.

It book that could to read your child or children. They can learn about faith and prayer. This is what I got mostly from the book. The angel thing is sweet and I got that they could be helpful though. The concept of them angels maybe what a bit confusing. The idea was not to bad. The angels' message on one of the pages is really good. I understood that and the rhyming of it. Done well.

The art is clear. You get the boy want to help himself and also his pet fish. He asking the one for that help. The topic is decent and something any child or children would go through. That sadness and being sick.
  
When I saw on instagram that The Lonely Island surprise released something on Netflix, I was kind of glad I was sick today. It's visual poetry about Mark 'McGwire' and Jose 'Canseco', mostly featuring doping. Apparently, it was supposed to somewhat resemble Beyonce's Lemonade, which I've never seen because I can't stand Beyonce.
The songs are solid Lonely Island songs, absurd and crude, as always, but hilarious. The cameos were good too, Sterling K. Brown played Sia in one song, and there were SNL and B99 actors throughout. Overall, not a bad 30 minutes for a The Lonely Island fan.

Iris lives a life with everything orderly and controlled. An anonymous gift turns out to be a sick piece of artwork which leads Iris into danger. Can a neighbor and his dog help her find love, comfort, and the ability to trust again?

As with the first book in the Planted series, this is more than just a book of mystery and romance. The underlining story has to do with finding faith, strength, understanding, and support while gaining a deeper relationship with God and his teachings.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

You know how after watching Narnia you want to climb in your wardrobe and go there as well? That is the exact feeling watching this movie gives you.

Absolutely amazing movie definitely one of thos that you can re watch multiple times and never get sick of it.

Post apocalyptic scenario where all entertainment is in the digital world - amazing the way they portray it. Just makes you wish you could put on one of the costumes and try it yourself.

It definitely keeps you guessing and also very action packed.

Suspense
Detectives McCabe and Savage, in the first of this series, are on the hunt for a sick individual, murdering young healthy women and removing their hearts. After they find the body of a young missing girl, they are informed another woman has gone missing already, and the clock starts ticking... they have a week to find her and taking the killer down.

Interesting read, like the characters but would like to see more character development and the partnership between McCabe and Savage... is it sexual, friendly... itโ€™s hard to ascertain.

Well written and gripping, finished in 24 hours.

Rolling Stone's 498th greatest album of all time
I would have said I knew this album, but there a couple of songs I didn't know. Packed full of indie bangers (I am the Resurrection, Waterfall, Fools Gold, I Wanna Be Adored), a true classic. But a surprising amount of filler in this album, including Don't Stop (Waterfall played backwards) which made me feel a little sick. I would have expected this album to be higher up the list, but I am guessing the US base of Rolling Stone has dictated this somewhat (the NME list has this at 94th).
