    Empire of Storms looks interesting! Is it book one in a series?

    My reading challenge number for the year is 52! I've already read 5 books this month, so I'm probably going to end up reading more than 52.

      It's actually book 5. Throne of Glass is book one and it's epic!

    I've heard a lot about this series. I haven't read any of the books, but I have a copy of Throne of Glass on my shelf.

    This author has been on my TBR for awhile but I somehow have never gotten around to reading any of her books. I like the teasers you shared! Good luck with your goal!

    I've seen this book all over the place lately in relation to that debate about YA books. I've not read any of this author's books, but I think I should? Thanks for adding me to Linky, Freda. Have a great weekend.

    Usually, when I straighten, I tend to have a look of pain and there is grunting. LOL Being over 50 is fun! ;-) And thanks for always adding me! There are days I wouldn't remember to do it. Again, that over 50 thing. LOL I'd love for your readers to check out mine. https://tinyurl.com/LisaKsBookReviews12419

Scooby Doo: The Sword And The Scoob

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23! RATED F 72 minutes AMAZON An evil sorceress transports the gang back to the age chivalrous knights, spell-casting wizards, and fire-breathing dragons. While there, Shaggy unwittingly pulls out Excalibur from a nearby stone to cut a block of cheese and now no one is sure who the rightful ruler is. The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
