Journeys in the form of words
"I have duct tape. Ordinary duct tape, like you buy in a hardware store. Turns out even NASA can't improve on duct tape."- Mark Watney (The Martian) The Martian is another of my favorite audiobooks in my library. Unfortunately, you can no longer obtain a new copy of the version narrated by R.C. Bray, but …
"I realized, as terrifying and painful as reality can be, it's also the only place where you can find true happiness. Because reality is real."- Wade Watts Ready Player One Ready Player One is the audiobook that changed my entire world. I enjoyed reading long before this one ever came out, but it was this …
"In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and SNAP! The job's a game."- Mary Poppins (Mary Poppins) The sequel wasn't bad, but like many cases, it was not the original Mary Poppins. I love Emily Blunt and the rest of the cast in the sequel …
"Remember, mate, not all sharks are in the water."- Adventure (The Pagemaster) This is one of those movies that were truly pieces of art. The Pagemaster came during a time when television was getting into overdrive, cinematic technology was improving at a rapid rate, and theaters were still the place to be to see a …
The 100: Day 21 is a great addition/continuation to the series. Just as much drama, suspense, and intrigue as the first book. There are definitely some cliffhangers, but they are not intolerable or annoying. It leaves you wanting more. I don't have much to say other than this book keeps the story going and is …
Book 7 of 2023 The 100 was a better read than I was anticipating. I enjoyed the first few seasons of the show but I eventually lost interest. The book is a little easier to get through, and in my opinion, much more enjoyable. The storyline of the book made more sense and was much …
Book 6 of 2023 The Alchemist has to be among my absolute favorites. If I was not trying to stick to the simplicity of a scale of 1 - 5 I would have rated this book even higher. I first read this book back in 2015, but it is one of those books that is …
Book 5 of 2023 The Last Star is the conclusion to The 5th Wave book series. I am at a loss for words to be honest. Before I began reading this series, I had high hopes. I was expecting a books series with such good reviews to blow my mind at least a little. Alas, …
Book 4 of 2023 The Infinite Sea was worth the read, but in all honesty, I didn't consider it to be an improvement on the first book. I plan on finishing the series, but this is definitely not a series that I would read again. I understand that it is a young adult book, but …
Book 3 of 2023 I am not going to go as far as saying that The 5th Wave wasn't a good book. It was worth reading once, but this is not a book I would consider reading again. I could see how people might enjoy it and I even, to an extent, see why Hollywood …
