On My List: April 18th

On My List is a fun post where I let you know about some of the books, movies, TV shows, etc that I'm interested in. I can't believe this is the first one I posted for 2020, anyway here's my list. Let me know what's on your list.


Books

I Want To Read:

Book: Firefly: Big Damn Hero by James Lovegrove and Nancy Holder

Description:

THE FIRST ORIGINAL NOVEL FROM THE MUCH-MISSED SPACE WESTERN FIREFLY, PRODUCED WITH JOSS WHEDON AS CONSULTING EDITOR, SET IN THE HEART OF THE SERIES.

It should have been a routine job, transporting five crates from the planet of Persephone to a waiting buyer. And Lord knows, Captain Mal Reynolds needs the money if he's to keep Serenity flying. But the client is Badger, and nothing that involves him is ever straightforward. The crates are full of explosives, which might blow at the slightest movement.

Just before take-off, Mal disappears. As the cargo grows more volatile by the minute, and Alliance cruisers start taking an interest in the tenacious smuggling ship, it's down to Serenity's first mate, Zoë, to choose between rescuing her captain and saving her crew.

Meanwhile, rumors are spreading on Persephone of a band of veteran Browncoat malcontents who will stop at nothing to be revenged on those responsible for their terrible defeat. Is Mal harboring a dark secret from the war? And can the crew of Serenity find him before it's too late?

Why It's On My List: I love Firefly, the show is one of favorite sci-fi universes and I absolutely had to add this book to my list.

Happy First Day of Spring!

Okay, it's not really a holiday but it's the start of a new season, spring. I did a little research and spring signals rebirth, renewal and trying something new with the symbols and themes of love, hope, youth and growth.

In putting together this Unofficial Holiday Geeky List, I took the meaning of spring into consideration. I found TV show episodes that either fit the meaning of the season or they simply focus on enjoying spring break. Hopefully, it will make you feel happy about the beginning of a new and warmer season.


Ben 10: Alien Force

Season 1 episodes 1 and 2: Ben 10 Returns parts 1 and 2

Description:

Having enjoyed a normal life for several years, Ben dons the Omnitrix once again when Grandpa Max suddenly goes missing. While he is adjusting to the new Omnitrix, Ben, Gwen and Kevin search for clues to finding Grandpa Max and stumble upon an alien conspiracy.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! (+ a Geeky Holiday List)

I want to wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day! May we all have good luck in all that we do. Take care everyone, stay home (if possible because I know not everyone can) and wash your hand.

No need for wishful thinking of going out to bars to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, here's your Geeky Holiday list of TV shows and a movie that will have you in a happy mood to enjoy the day.

Fashion Meets Fandom: Beverly Hills 90210 T-Shirt

I still wish the Beverly Hills 90210 revival BH90210 was not cancelled, it was really interesting. I think a lot fans were expecting the revival to be a continuation of the original series but I like how the new show took a fictional take on the actors' real lives.

Whether you love or hate the revival, here's a cool retro inspired shirt of the original Beverly Hills 90210. Why do the graphics, that are around the characters, seem more like something that would go with Saved by the Bell instead of 90210? I don't know, it's just something I noticed.
