The Flash 3x09 Mid-Season Finale Review contains spoilers

Rating *****(5 stars)

Original Airdate:12/6/16

I loved this episode so much, and I thought it was the perfect way to end the mid-season before it goes off the air for a little while. This episode was filled with so many moments of joy, and little pockets of things that made me happy, and reminded me why I love this show so much. The main plot this episode was with the villain from the philosopher’s stone, it was released by Julian played by Tom Felton. Cisco keeps seeing his brother, and he doesn’t know why it is later revealed by his brother that if Cisco opens the box than it will bring his brother back to life. He does this, and his brother doesn’t come back to life but the villain inside of the box is released, and the team must find a way to get rid of it. Barry and the older flash run and throw the stone and the box into the speed force, but in doing so Barry sees the future and he sees the villain put a sword through her he saves her. Another part of the episode was that Wally is working on his powers, and he ends up helping everyone fight the villain of the week. The last part was that it was Christmas themed, and for Christmas Barry gets a house for both him and Iris and she is shocked.

This was an episode with many quotable moments, and I only wanted to share a few of them with you here but watch the episode for more. “Then I’ll be ready we be ready.”-Barry “I’m faster than Barry I’m faster than Barry.”-Wally “We used to fight all the time as kids, but that one Christmas we didn’t fight.”-Cisco “Where am I what’s going on?”-Julian “Says the man in the suite.”-Julian “Because you did this to me Barry your future self.”-Villain “I got you a wallet.”-Iris

I didn’t dislike anything about this episode, and in true The Flash fashion I was on the edge of my seat the whole time while watching it. I loved the mythology aspect of this episode, I’ve always been a fan of mythology to learning more about the villain of the week was a real treat for me. I loved learning more about Julian, I was late to the show only watching the first six episodes of season one and then all of the episodes this season, and so this was a great introduction of his character for me. I once again loved that the team was working together, like every week the team working together to defeat the villains is my favorite thing about this show. I loved the fact that Barry got a house for him and Iris, I felt like it was a big milestone for the two of them, and I was giddy about it.

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...
