Three Seasons of a Good Premise
This fish-out-of-water adventure buddy cop dramedy was an amazing show for its time. Paul Gross is note-perfect as the seemingly naïeve Mountie in Chicago, and the soundtrack stands the test of time as a throwback to a pre-9-11 world.

After?
As someone who read the After series, I feel like the movie could've been better. Scenes moved through too quick and one of the main characters Hardin Scott was portrayed as a nice, kind guy in the movie. Overall I feel like After would be better as a Netflix series which would comprise of three seasons, one for each book.

I am so happy that there is finally a story arc about these girls. I feel that the females from Batman get no attention at all, so it was refreshing. The story is nothing to complicated and everything you would expect, but I still enjoyed reading it. It was nice to get close and person with the three and learn more about them.

There's no doubt that there's been a recent high level of hype around this game. To be frank, it went completely under my radar, and I didn't know it even existed until very recently. Nonetheless, I was sold almost immediately. Here is my review after three plays.

This novella collection contains three Christmas themed mysteries starring the author's regular series characters. As a fan of the first two, I loved their stories. Leslie's left me a little cold, but I do intend to give her series a try soon.

When a mysterious unseen foe kidnaps a cat and then one of the twins, the three Grace kids start to discover the strange secret of their new home. A strong plot and good character development kept me turning the pages of this novella.

As with the previous three novels, I really enjoyed how it was written. The plot development was well thought out and the characters had a good amount of dynamics between them. The ghosts were, like all fo the others, infuriating but interesting. I can't wait to see who this new ghost is and what is going to happen with Kylie.

Percy and his friends must travel through the ever changing labyrinth of Daedalus to try to save their camp. The action and use of Greek myth was still fun, but it felt very formulaic after reading the first three in the series.

In the final of this three books series, Nick Barrett is investigating a 25 year old disappearance. What he learns uncovers deeply held secrets of the rich of Charleston. Another great book where each answer leads to more questions.
