If a story touches you it will stay with you, haunting the places in your mind that you rarely ever visit

OK. Let's see what I've been reading, watching, and listening to, and which song I'm going to share this week, shall we? After all, that's the point of this post, and why you're here today, right?

• Reading:

This week I finished reading the book I was in the middle of this time last week, and read another two books by the same author. So, here's what I read, along with my book reviews.
    

Star Minds Lone Wolves Team - All Missions
by Barbara G. Tarn
My rating: five out of five stars

This book was a great read. It was wonderful to join all these characters on so many of their missions, and get to know them a bit more in the process.

Star Minds Interregnum Volume 2
by Barbara G. Tarn
My rating: five out of five stars

This is another excellent collection of stories, which is once again a wonderful addition to the series. It's great getting to go on new adventures with
the characters I've grown to know - and in some cases really like - from previous books in the series, or - as is the case with a couple of the stories
- gain more insight in to a situation by seeing events from the point of view of another character.

Star Minds Sire Teens
by Barbara G. Tarn
My rating: five out of five stars

This was a fun read; I loved getting to see some of the characters I've read about in previous books when they were younger.

• Watching:

This week I watched a lot again.  Some I'd seen before, some was new to me.  The stuff I'd seen before was...

    

1. Racing Stripes
2. Friends (I finished series 7, watched all of series 8, and started series 9)
   
3. Lady And The Tramp (animated version)
   
4. Lady And The Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure
5. Shark Tale
6. Piglet's Big Movie
7. Tinker Bell
8. My Friend Flicka
   

    

As for the new to me ones... 

     

The Durrells (TV series 2016-2019):

I thoroughly enjoyed what I've wached so far of this show (the first series) and definitely want to watch more.  I highly recommend it for fans of Gerald Durrell, or those who love wildlife or family drama type TV shows in general.  I give it five out of five stars.

 Eragon (2006 movie):

This was a pretty good fantasy movie, though not the best I've seen... Definitely worth watching if you're a fan of the kind of fantasy movie that features dragons, but is much cleaner than a lot of them out there, so more family friendly.  I haven't read the book(s) it's based on, but now I want to.  I really enjoyed it, but didn't absolutely love it, so I  give this movie four out of five stars.

• Listening:

This week I've been listening to a variety of music, including country, 80s, and classical.  But I'm still doing the Halloween music thing, so... Today I'm going with Michael Jackson's "Thriller" as the song to share with you all.  So... Enjoy!
