Mandy C. watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, a nostalgic movie great for a family night (or a group of millennials, if you’d rather).
In book reviews:
- Brian reviews Kim DeRose’s For Girls Who Walk Through Fire, a tale of sexual assault survivors who team up to get revenge on their attackers, but with magic.
- Regina was enchanted by Sarah Sutton’s The Song of the Swan, a middle grade retelling of the folk tale Swan Lake.
- Mandy C. read Lyndall Clipstone’s Unholy Terrors, a dark, gothic book with a side of magic, monsters, and a Mysterious Loner Dude that has my attention.
