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 –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...
