A Court of... Reviews
As an avid reader, who enjoys reading all types of books and all genres, I was unsure of the "A Court of" series. Not because I doubted the author, as I have immense respect for all who are able to write a book yet alone a 5 book series. But it was what I was reading and seeing online that made me worried.

Zone of Interest
To say I was shocked at this movie is an understatement. When I saw that a movie that is based on the Holocaust was rated PG, I laughed. I figured that it was not going to be anything special because how can you cover the travesty and horror of the Holocaust without showing anything? Well, the movie did just that, but instead of showing the gruesome nature of those years, it used an underappreciated method, Sound. You never saw anything that happened, but you heard it…all of it.

Saltburn
For those of you who have lived under a rock the last few weeks it seem and have not heard of the movie Saltburn. It is the latest craze of a movie available on Amazon Prime. A bit of a description of the movie without spoiling anything for anyone, it is the story of Oliver Quick at Oxford University when he finds himself drawn into the world of the charming Felix Catton, who invites him to Saltburn, his eccentric family’s sprawling estate, for a summer never to be forgotten.

The How To's of the Dark Side
Now this series is a great one. The amount of satire in these 3 different series is amazing! Essentially it pokes fun at being a cult leader, being a tyrant and being a mob boss. It is a fun way to watch and learn about some of the biggest names in the crime game, basically making fun of the mistakes that the big names make.

Once Upon a Studio
What a beautiful short film for the 100th anniversary of Disney. I never thought that 100 years of an iconic studio could be captured in such a short time but this did just that. For many of us, Disney was a core part of our childhood and a very important factor in who we grew up to be.

The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez
If there is ever a docuseries that will make your heart break, this is truely it. Omg, this poor boy that is the focus of this series just did not deserve the unfair life that he had. The short time he spent on this earth was just a living hell and unfortunately, he is in a much better place now.

Scouts of Honor: The Secret Files of the Boy Scouts of America
This was a tough one of watch and not because of what it was about and what it represents as far as what goes on in society. I mean, when you think of the Boy Scouts of America, I think you think of an organization that is wholesome, that raises boys to be outstanding members of society and that truly wants to help shape the future of America. What this showed is that, you let powerful men run an organization and you just let them get away with whatever and run their organization however they want, there are disgusting things that happen.

Reading is Funadmental
As I travel to work on my daily commute, I have my nose in a book. Unlike most people who are on a device, I read a paperback or hard cover book. It is more relaxing than staring at a screen again, which I do at work and then again at home at the end of the day. The 3 hours of commuting I have in the day is my true me time. I had this man ask me why do I read a physical book when I could just have a kindle and read the books then.

Mom and Me
In a woman’s life it is often said that there no relationship more important than her relationship with her mother. But that relationship is not always a totally healthy one. Sometimes the relationship is not totally toxic, but it has its moments where there are things that get said that really shouldn’t be said. Little jabs that rip you apart piece by piece and you have no control over it. Now its not all the time, and there are loving moments, so it is not that it’s a toxic relationship, or so you think at the time.

Mamba Forever <3
I do not think that there are any words to describe the devastation in the sports world right now. It's been 3 days since we lost one of the most influential players in basketball history, his daughter and 7 other members of the basketball community to a terrible accident.
