Movies watched
Isn’t It Romantic — Pretty good, although I wish they would have leaned in a bit more.
The Beatles: Eight Days a Night — Interesting documentary. Love all the concert footage I’ve never seen.
Aquaman — Much better than I thought it would be…
Quartermass and the Pit — More horror and science fiction this time. Loved it!
Iron Man - We started rewatching all of the Marvel movies.
Iron Man 2 - I haven’t watched this one in years. Not as bad as I thought, but not amazing…
Thor - Oh goodness! This movie needed way more Loki…
Captain America - Good, but I think Winter Soldier is far superior.
TV Shows watched - Just the usual. Nothing too exciting.
Comments - Another amazing reading month! I really think I should up my GoodReads goal to 215 (up from the current 175). I knocked off a few from my TBR pile and a ton of library books. Hoping to read more from my own shelves in the next two months, but I need to reinstitute my library ban…
