Books I Fully Intend to Read in 2018
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur Milk and Honey has been a book that I have always heard about, but I never thought of looking into what was the context of the book. I've been told that this is a really good break up book as it talks about heartbreak and healing. The book is divided into four chapters, with each part symbolizing something different. Amazon describes the book through taking "readers through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look." When I read a book I want to feel like my life has changed or feel that my perception on the world has changed and I feel this book is what I'm looking for.

'American Assassin:' Movie Review
This movie starts off so celebratory, for Dylan O'Brien's character just gets engaged. Then, a terrorist group comes up the beach and starts firing on all the tourists, killing O'Brien's fiancé. His character's name is Mitch Rapp, and this is a movie based off the series 'The Mitch Rapp Series' written by Vince Flynn. It gives off a real Jason Bourne kind of vibe and makes you want to get in shape to learn to fight. It's not the same as Jason Bourne, so if you're expecting that, you will be disappointed. But if you're interested in an assassin/spy movie, this is your fix.

15 Binge-Worthy Anime To Watch This Weekend!
I’ve been watching anime for a few years now, and I’ve come to notice that I binge-watch A LOT. So is this normal? Yes, it is. However, let's first define this behavior that we do on the weekend: binge-watching is when you watch a series for a long time span, usually of a single series. Netflix, the provider of binge-watching, defines this marathon-watching when a person watches between two to six episodes of the same show in one sitting. So don’t make any plans this weekend, because here are 15 of the most binge-worthy anime out there.

September 18th 2005. Who could ever forget that date? That's when the 2nd episode of the 2nd season of Zoey 101 aired.

They then sealed it in a time capsule.
