Life for Adults
This is the spirtual successor to The Game of Life. Unlike Life, you have choices. You choose a career, parterner, hobbies, and interests. Your job is to manage the finite time that humans have to harness the maximum possible happiness. Maybe you do that with a parter, who makes you happy, but takes your time? Maybe you forget about friends and family and pursue the maximum possible posessions.

If you can handle the steep learning curve and long game times, this is a fun deviation from the standard board game theme.

I still really want to try this game..... I might just have to break down and buy it without playing it first...

You might you might be able to find a board game place where you can play it without purchasing it first. In Plymouth there’s a shop that specializes in games—you just rent the “time” to play them.

Princess Ben is not your average Princess. She isn't interested in learning how to behave like a queen and her less than skinny figure isn't putting her their either much to her Aunt's dismay. What do you do when your mother has been killed, your father is missing and you've become next in line for the throne. Misbehave of course. It's because of this attitude that she discovers a whole other side to the castle and to what she's capable of!
I really enjoyed the characters and the plot. This is actually the first princess book I've read. I only wish there had been more of the magical side of things in the story but I still loved it.

Splendor is one of my go-to games for introducing new people to the hobby as it revolves around 2 simple actions. Get gems, and buy cards with gems. Easy to teach and people feel good when they manage to link several actions in a row efficiently or when they learn that picking up all of the gems of a colour is a annoying yet hilariously effective strategy at times. It has enough depth to last a while and for someone experienced to consistently beatsomeone who is learning, but eventually you'll want something a bit more complex. In terms of theme, there really isn't any, just gems and Nobles for some reason.

WOW... Just... WOW. This series keeps up the interest. Throws it at you in spades. :D

So This is Maddy and Ricker's story. I don't like to give anything away so this is gonna be a tough review. Hmmm. Maddy is not as strong as a lot of other females in her clan... but with the Prima's help, she's learning. I'll just say Ricker helps her out of a tight spot and leave it at that... And then they fall. Personalities clash and duel. As does their bodies. :D

Go read. Seriously. This one might just be my new favourite.
Oh - Well written, well thought out story line. Awesome Characters.
LOVED IT!!
