Sea of Monsters Review
The sequel to 2010’s Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief was a long time coming. The Sea of Monsters is an action-packed adventure that is fun for the whole family, that is, if your entire family is twelve years old. Yeah, it’s a kids movie, like the first one was, but it’s still fun to see the characters return to the big screen, along with a few new additions. Read on to find out more about the movie while I break it down.
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children Review
Yes, it’s a long name, but it’s definitely eye-catching. Ransom Riggs’ novel is a unique combination of YA fiction, sci fi, and old black-and-white photographs. It’s a unique work of art full of colorful characters and terrifying monsters, and a fantasy universe that you’ll love to dive into. Without giving away too much of the plot, I’ll attempt to tell you why you should read this book, and you definitely should.
Horns Review
Joe Hill’s novel, Horns, is a terrific page-turner, and will soon become a major motion picture starring Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe. Ignatius “Ig” Perrish awakens one morning with a wicked hangover and horns growing out of his head! This is the last thing he needs, because he has many other problems in his life at the moment. For starters, his former girlfriend was recently raped and murdered by an unknown perpetrator, and to top it all off, everyone thinks he did it, although the police never found enough evidence to charge him with anything. Are these problems of his related in any way, or is this guy just generally unlucky?
Top 10 Harry Potter Side Characters
If you haven’t noticed from my many posts about Game of Thrones, I only have a few select specialties when it comes to truly geeking out. I never used to really like, or was able to appreciate the world of fantasy. When the Harry Potter series first came out I was hesitant to even give it a chance. Once I did, however, it changed my world! I have fallen in love with the world of fantasy now. I love to get lost in another world and pretend I am a part of it all. I wanted to write an article that had something to do with Harry Potter, but wasn’t quite sure how because it is not exactly a recent thing.
I have decided to put a list together of my top 10 favorite side characters in the Harry Potter universe.
Note: I had some help from my good friend Claire when trying to think up some of these characters. She is an even bigger Harry Potter nerd than me or anyone I know. Anyway here it is!
