I needed a break.

     First off I am really bad at this. I wanted to mostly write for me. I doubt anyone looks at this stuff or cares. But I took a long break. I had a lot going on. I quit a job and then got another job, had some family members get sick and die,and survived another deployment. 

    I have been reading and still continuing my yearly challenges but haven't been writing about them. I think I may start again. 2020 has been a horrible year and I am going to try harder in this next year. So I will be back tracking on the book that I read over my break and discussing what I thought and the differences between movies and books. If anyone reads these post please let me know if you have any book/movie suggestions for me to try and get through.

    I will be jumping in and reviewing some of the books I have read in my long 3 year break. I am hoping to keep up on this as I really do like to write, even if no one reads it.

    Published in 2020 I have to say that this book dragged for me. I know that is really mean to say especially since Beth Reekles was so young when she wrote the first full book. There is a short about the summer in between the books. But yes it dragged. I felt like I was getting as much from this one as I did the first one. So Elle and Noah are a thing,out in the open now. He has left for college and she is starting senior year. Noah, who is actually pretty smart apparently, leaves early to start school. He doesn't want to talk to Elle about how school is going and actually avoids most of her advances to talk about it. She is struggling because there a rumors about her and Noah breaking up. Noah is tagged in a picture where he is pretty cozy with another girl. Elle doesn't really want to talk about it and assumes the worse. When she does finally talk to Noah about it she doesn't feel at ease. Lee does try to cheer her up but he is busy with football and his girlfriend. Le...

    Published in 1986 Forrest Gump By Winston Groom I thought was going to be a favorite of mine because I love the movies so much . I was kind of disappointed. Sure it had it's funny moments and it made you laugh out loud a couple of times. But things became so unbelievable that it just made the book go down hill from there. So let's start with how Forrest went to a different school at the start. He was in a school for special kids but eventually ended up in a regular school. He has a hard time with being just normal. So his momma sets him up on a date with Jenny. He takes her to a movie and in his idiotic way messes it up so it makes it like he was trying to molest her and take her top off. So he gets in trouble and has to see a judge. So he has to go to college or be drafted into the military. He does go to play college football and meets Bubba there. Forrest ends  up meeting Jenny again and they become a band. He ends up failing out so they draft him into the mi...
