In The Queue Where It Happens



-Sings No one else was in the room where it happens, the room where it happens, the room where it happens.- Hi! This is the post where I talk about other media I’ve been enjoying. I have not done one of these in months, and I missed doing them. The title is a pun on The Room Where It Happens from Hamilton.

Tv and Movies

I keep watching Food Network for background noise while I work on things and while reading. I don’t know what it is, I don’t really cook or bake, but I love watching other people make food. I really enjoyed Barbeque Brawl this season, it was tense, but I loved it. I also enjoy Guys Grocery Games, Chopped, Money Hungry, Guys Ranch Kitchen, Beat Bobby Flay, Restaurant Impossible, and Kitchen Crash. I really enjoy the variety and how many shows the Food Network has.

I recently finished this season of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series on Disney +. I really loved this season, I just wish they had spread out the drama of the back half of the season more into the season as a whole. Once I finished that, they recommended The Mysterious Benedict Society to me, I am two episodes in and I just love it. I want to finish The Owl House and start Marvel’s What If, as well as other Marvel shows on Disney +. The Mysterious Benedict Society has filled with an interesting story and fascinating characters. 

 

I recently saw Jungle Cruise in theaters. If you have kids, this was the perfect family movie, but even my parents and I enjoyed it. I have Luca and Raya and the Last Dragon were saved on my Disney + list. I want to watch one or both of those soon. I’m also determined to watch all the MCU movies. I enjoy the MCU, but I’ve fallen behind and didn’t see all the movies. 

Music and musicals

I’m doing this thing where I go back to a different show a day, rather than listening to the same thing a lot. I love it because it gives me a chance to listen to musicals I forgot about or others that I’m in the mood for. I’ve been super into In The Heights this summer with the movie coming out, it has always been a musical that I’ve gone back to, but the story is so heartwarming and the characters are amazing. Now that Broadway is coming back, and The Tony Awards are next month, I’ve listened to Moulin Rouge, and it’s just so much fun. The story is sad, but the music is so much fun.

Ben Platt, known for Dear Evan Hansen, and Pitch Perfect, has a new album out. I have not heard it yet, but I saved it. I prefer to own my music, but I’m not sure if I would like the new album enough to own it, so I want to listen to it before I buy it. Speaking of Dear Evan Hansen, with the moving coming out soon, I will listen to the soundtrack if we get one. The last thing on my list to check out is Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cinderella. I’ve heard a few songs and really enjoyed them, but I haven’t listened to the full album yet.

Podcasts

I want to listen to more podcasts. I really need to catch up on The Adventure Zone, Broadwaysted, Dear Friend, and Book Riot podcasts. I enjoy podcasts, but sometimes I just need to sit and listen. When I want to listen to a podcast, I’m usually reading. I will try and carve out time to catch up.

Games

I have not played pc games in months!!!! I want to get back into Hades, Star Dew Valley, and The Sims. I play Candy Crush and Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. I got back into Marvel Puzzle Quest. I just need to play it more. The last mobile games I love are Disney Emoji Blitz, Frozen Free Fall, and Homesacpes.

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- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday- Book characters linked to Halloween candy!!

Welcome Back! I know I’ve been saying that I will be back and blogging more. Life happened last week, I had an appointment last week, and I just got lazy after that. I’m planning to be back more this week and get posting again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl .  This was born out of a love of lists and bringing the bookish community together. This week is a Halloween Freebie. I’m not into the horror or mystery genres. I wanted to do my top 8 Halloween candies and pick a character that reminds me of them. 1- Chocolate Rhys from A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas because he is smooth. This was a no brainier for me. Rhys is smooth, and he always knows what to say. He is charming and flirtatious so he was reminds me of chocolate no question. 2- Reese’s cups Claudia from Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills because she is sweet but has the determination to get what she wants. I read this book ...
