Unrelated thoughts

It's probably due to blogs, tweets and posts that have affect me to think every coherent thought I think is worth be read by someone else. This trait might be genetic. My parents are eloquent, thoughtful writers. My husband enjoy getting a laugh out of an overly descriptive phrase or a thesaurus abuse paragraph written by my mom or dad but from this entry I am proof that this writing choice might be genetic, just know I am self aware.

Agents of SHIELD

Jemma Simmons is like the scientific Hermione Granger, both I love immensely

The Bishop's Wife

This was an excellent read, not only for the plotlines that kept me entertained and interested but the cultural references to Mormon Utah, specifically the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and religious aspects. There a few religious points I don't think accurately reflect the Mormon church but the cultural aspects were extremely well written.

Birthmarked

My favorite thing about this series is that it fits nicely as a prequel to Matched. Now I am working on these books separately. (I'm done with Matched and Crossed but I haven't read Reached)
I also am only part way through Prized (book two of the Birthmarked city)

Spoiler! (Ok all book reviews have spoilers including all of mine) Birthmark has a huge motivation behind reproductive assignment matching if you will? Because of inbreeding and the Matched society is measured about everything. Insane calculations. Not a far leap to thing the Enclave in Birthmarked a few hundred years later is the Society in Matched.

PLL Spencer's Alex

I can't help it. Every time I see Alex. The main character Spencer's boyfriend.

I see Orlando Seale (Pride and Prejudice 2003: Pink Bible, Everything you want and an episode of Reign)

I think it's how sweet they both are screen and in every part I have seen Orlando in he is a lot like Alex, kind and very supportive of his woman.

Gilmore Girls Movie

Please forgive my next few posts, they are thoughts written down via mobile.

I have been going throught withdraws, mostly missing Loreali, never a huge fan or Rory but a HUGE fan of Dean :)

So I've been searching the Web for a replacement and have found not a lot but some call for a movie, most of the proper plot lines are lame, like Rory getting called back for her mom's wedding.  I have a few ideas I like but haven't put together yet.


  • Loreali and Luke have lived together long enough to have a common law wedding and Star's Hollow throws them a wedding against their will
  • Jess' book gets auctioned as a movie AND his only demand is that it is filmed in Star's Hollow. Rory volunteers to write about it. Lots of opportunity for classic Luke/Taylor comedy.

Pretty Little Liars

My first impression is that it is a rip off of Wysteria lane. It's more Desperate Housewives than I'm sure fans would like to admit. It also reminds me that all dramas seam to center around High School or an Office. DH is actually impressive that they can use a neighborhood. Even sitcoms struggle to keep their characters together having everyone meet up at the McClaren's or The Central Perk.

I like the opening credits, the title song is just creepy enough and very catchy. When watching the Pilot and seeing Aria shush the camera I thought "oh that's cool, the girl that shush in the opening will be the center of that episode" sadly this just strengthens Aria as the frontrunner. . .sad I think I like Spencer best.

Don'the look up the ages of the actors. It's cray-cray ;)
