Mondays ....


On Friday last week, I watched Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. It was the fourth episode of this fifth season. All four episodes, they haven't had Fitz (our favorite character) at all. Much like their third season when Jemma was missing until the fifth episode. At the very end last Friday, we got this:









FITZ! And mirroring season 3, this week's episode on Friday will be all Fitz, catching up. Woot!And Hunter is back to help him!  Squee!!



Tonight I have the mid-season finale of Scorpion, "A Christmas Car-roll":

On Christmas Eve, when Walter chooses work over spending quality time with his friends, he falls down the stairs and hits his head, and as he lays unconscious, he enters a dream world where Team Scorpion never existed.


Over the weekend I read THESE BROKEN STARS by Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner, 1st of a SFF trilogy.

It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen survive. And they seem to be alone. Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they're worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help. Then, against all odds, Lilac and Tarver find a strange blessing in the tragedy that has thrown them into each other's arms. Without the hope of a future together in their own world, they begin to wonder—would they be better off staying here forever? Everything changes when they uncover the truth behind the chilling whispers that haunt their every step. Lilac and Tarver may find a way off this planet. But they won't be the same people who landed on it. The first in a sweeping science fiction trilogy, These Broken Stars is a timeless love story about hope and survival in the face of unthinkable odds.

Published 2013; 384 pages.

That's about it. Gotta keep moving. Have a good evening.



Much love,
