Book Girl Thoughts: My thoughts on what fandom stuff I'd miss while on an online break and other stuff

Happy Monday!

I took a week long online break, so I know I missed a lot of fandom stuff. So, this morning I was trying to get caught up. Some of things I saw, was that the Supergirl movie wasn't doing well at the box office. And it's also getting mixed reviews with more leaning towards negative. I'm still not sure I want to see it in the theatre, I might just wait for it to be released on DVD. And that's mainly because when I watched the trailer it felt like I was looking at another Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Although I love watching the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, I don't want to see a Supergirl movie masking as one. It just didn't feel like I was seeing anything different from a Guardians movie. Maybe the movie is better than what's shown in the trailer but for now I'll probably just wait for it to be released on DVD to watch it.



Let's see, I also saw where some of the cast from 9-1-1, Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D. were at the Saving Lives Convention in Paris over the weekend. I love going to conventions, so hopefully the fans and the actors had a lot fun. From a few videos I saw, it looked like fun chaos.

And finally, during my break, I watched a few movies and started a few shows that I have been planning to watch but never got around to it. I also watched a few episodes of Downton Abbey which totally rekindled my love for the show. It's been a while, maybe I'll rewatch the entire series and the movies. And throughout my weeklong break, I was also reading my book, Body and Soul Food by Abby Collette. I should be finished soon. To avoid reader's block, I have just been gradually reading a little bit everyday. I've also been trying to declutter and reorganize my reading nook. I really want to use it but I still have a bunch of stuff taking up space. So that's one of my projects. Aside from the watching movies and shows and reading and organizing, I was trying to find a new hobby. And one that I was looking into was crochet, it's something I want to try. I've been trying to find a beginner's kit but so far I haven't gotten one yet.

Well, that's just few a thoughts I had and wanted to share. I hope everyone had a good week. I can't wait to get back to posting.
