Coincidentally, I wrapped up this book in parallel with this month’s election. Too bad the book didn’t have a similar ending! Things would be a lot different now; that is for sure. The book was ok, but it was less of a story and more of a diary–each chapter was a day leading up to the election (e.g., “90 Days Before the Election”).

My rating: 3/5

clearfield

I went to Clearfield again yesterday afternoon. Shortly after I got there, Jeff’s sister invited us to their camp for hot dogs and mountain pies, so we hung out at his place for a little bit and went there closer to suppertime. Another couple I met before (at trivia night) was also there. The dogs enjoyed the camp and getting snacks from everyone, and I always love a campfire.

After that, we went back to Jeff’s because 2 of his granddaughters were going to be stopping by for trick-or-treating. They were very cute! Since I was in Clearfield, I missed trick-or-treating at my house. I think this is the first time that has happened.

Before I headed home, we hung out some more and talked about the state of the world, which is not ideal.

backrooms

This was a weird movie. Watching it was kind of like watching a bad dream. It had an open-ended ending, which I kind of hate, but before that, it was very unique.

My rating: 3/5

Daughtry

Jeff is a fan of Daughtry, so when I saw they were coming to The Palace Theatre, I offered to treat him to the concert for his birthday. He accepted. It was an interesting show, as the songs spanned their 20-year career, but in an acoustic format.

The opener, Ryan Perdz, also did an acoustic set. I really liked his cover of Michael Jackson’s song, Billie Jean.

I’m about two-thirds of the way through this series and am still loving these stories! I’ll be sad when I’m done, but I guess that won’t be for a bit since I usually read a couple of other books in between.

My rating: 3.5/5
