The Flash review Episode 2x08 Invasion
Airdate:11/29/16
Rating:***** (5 stars)
The main plot of this episode was a crossover between The Flash, Kara Danvers aka Supergirl, The Legions, Arrow, Thea Queen, and Felicity al teaming up to fight the villain of the week. Wally aka Kid Flash wanted to help, but since he is just starting to get his powers it’s not a good idea Wally gets hurt in battle. The villain of the week was the Dominators a group of aliens that date back to the 50’s, and until three months ago when a recording was released with the Dominators voice. Barry tells everyone when they’re all assembled that he can’t be trusted; because he went to flash point and saved his mother   so he not only changed his timeline;but due to a ripple effect he changed other people’s timelines that were in the room. Due to this Barry wants to stay behind while the rest of the group goes to fight the Dominators, Oliver Queen aka the Green Arrow says that he will stay behind to keep an eye on Barry but the group calls them and needs their help so they go to the group. The show ended with Wally being injured, as previously said and taken to Star Labs to get help.
This show was a show with many quotable moments, here are just a few of my favorites but I would recommend that you watch this show as there are many quotes that aren’t listed here. “What makes her so super”? “Since when is Robin Hood calling the shots”? “What are you going to call when you need my help”? “Red skirt.” “People make choices and those choices affect everyone around them”.-Oliver “Hey Supergirl it’s time to see who's faster” – Barry. That one was my favorite quote of the whole show.
There were so many things about this episode that I love;, and nothing I disliked I thought that this was a perfect crossover;, and a perfect way to combine all the worlds that were on the show together. The first thing I loved was everyone teaming up to fight evil, it was  some of my favorite superheroes teaming up and fighting evil together, and I loved the family dynamic on the show. The second thing was the dialogue, which is why I gave it  a full  paragraph in this review this episode was full of so many witty lines and I couldn’t get enough of the episode. The flow, seeing as it was a crossover I wasn’t sure how the pacing and the flow were going to go, seeing as not many people were on Supergirl the other night but the flow and the pace of the show were fantastic. How everyone brought something to the table, this is something like everyone working as a team to fight evil but everyone brought their own power and their own abilities to help the team win against evil in a way.  The story it was something that was interesting, not really that new but I thought it really worked well for a crossover style show and I loved it so much. I don’t watch the show Arrow, so stay tuned for the Legions review on Friday for the conclusion of this big crossover.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
