Rating :*****( 5 stars)

The episode started with Jack a teen or at least a pre-teen and it showed how his father used to be abusive to his mother. The next scene also in the past is when Rebecca and Jack got their own house, and they both really love the house they’re getting it ready for the babies. Back in the present Toby is in the hospital, but he is alive. Kate and Toby are playing strip poker in the hospital, but Kate refuses to strip when the doctor comes in. Oliva comes back and she says that she has changed, and she wants to be back in the play and she wants to date Kevin again. Jesse William’s boyfriend and Randell are trying to get to know each other better. In the past Rebecca sends out Jack for Ice Cream, but instead, he goes to see his father for alone of money. William says that Jesse has been taking him to go see state funded nursing homes; because he doesn’t want his cancer to be a burden for Randell and his family. The episode ended with Jack and Rebecca in a new house that Jack had brought for them, a bigger one and you as the viewer are to assume that it was with his father mother that was given to Jack.

I find the writing on this show so great, and I love it so much I think that it is some of the best writing on TV today. This was a show that was filled with so many quotable moments, and I loved all the writing on the show. “So is this the moment when we find out if we’re having a boy of a girl?”-Jack “we have what I like to call artnerships.”-Kevin “ No no it’s an exciting thing.”-Jack “I don’t know I heard other New Yorkers slam it and I wanted to fit in.” -Kevin “I brought you guys here to distract me, and you’re doing a terrible job.”-Kate “Who are you, and what have you done with my wife?” -Jack

I loved this episode, and there was really nothing that I didn’t like about this show in the typical This Is Us fashion, there was nothing really wrong with this episode. I loved the scenes in the past where you got to see how Jack and Rebecca brought their first house, and how they brought another house that was bigger when they found out they were having triplets. I loved the scenes in the present in particular the Toby and Kate scenes, and the fact that Toby told Kate he loved her and then later she told him she loved him back. I loved that we got more backstory into the kinds of parents that Jack and Rebecca came from. I think that Slone and Kevin are just adorable, and I hope that their relationship expands on the show.

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...
