In the Queue Where it Happens

 


Hello! It's been a few weeks, but I have things to talk about now. This is my post about other media not related to books that I do every other Friday. Yes, the title of this post comes from the musical Hamilton. 

Tv and Movies

I've actually been watching a few things lately, and I'm thrilled about that fact. I'm working my way through season 4 of One Day At A Time when CBS airs them on Mondays. I'm very much enjoying it, and I love all the characters. My next Netflix show will probably be Emily in Paris, or Julie and the Phantoms. Now that The Owl House is on Disney Plus, I will start that today. If I have time, I  will start season 1 of The Mandalorian as well. Also on Disney Plus, I have added High School Musical: The Musical: The Series; I need to get back to that as I was very much enjoying the show. I have to say; I believe as far as streaming services go; I prefer Disney Plus over Netflix because it's more the content I want. 

  As far as movies go, I watched The Haunted Mansion for the first time on Disney Plus. I thought the movie was okay; it was just a little odd in places, but I enjoyed the attempt to make a movie inspired by the ride. Before I started this post, I watched I Put A Spell On You: The Sanderson Sisters Break the Internet. I definitely recommend this visual album if you love Hocus Pocus, or just want to watch a fun movie, Click here to watch I Put on You: The Sanderson Sisters Break the Internet. It's mostly Broadway performers, but I believe the whole family would enjoy it. 

Podcasts

As a fan of Starkid, I am listening to Wayward Guide, and I'm really enjoying it. This is a podcast and web series, from Tin Can Bros, a cousin Starkid, but there is a crossover between the two groups. I'm not that big on horror, but because of the actors and the story, I watched and listen to the first episode, and I really enjoyed the vibe. Click here to watch the series on YouTube.

Theater and Streams

So I Put A Spell on You could have gone in two places, because it was more of a movie/visual album than a theatrical production, I put it in the movie section. Last weekend, I watched Broadway Whodunit: All Hallows Eve, and it was a very fun stream. I love that actors are finding a way to make theater. As far as Twitch streams, I still have the same list of people I've mentioned before. 

Music 

I believe I mentioned Cruel Intensions: A 90's Musical a few weeks ago, and I very much still into that show. I have also been on a Disney kick lately, and as I write this post, I am listening to Disney Hits. 

Games



Frequent readers of this post will know that I'm not really a hardcore gamer. I play Animal Crossing Pocket Camp and Among Us. I also play Hayday, but I mostly prefer to watch others play games.

  1. I'm a Starkid fan too but haven't had the chance to check out Wayward Guide yet. I'm excited though!

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...
