    I loved Tom Sawyer! It was actually the first book I checked out of the library when I was eight years old.

    That's excellent news about your mother! I'm glad.

    I can't remember if I've ever read Tom Sawyer. Hmmm....

    This is one of those classics that you feel like you know even though you've never read it. I hope you enjoy your weekend!

    I am so glad your mother is doing great, Freda. I hope she has a smooth recovery! It's been so long since I read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. I actually preferred Huckleberry Finn of the two. :-)

    I don't read a lot of horror, but I certainly enjoy books with horror elements in them now and then--from thrillers to urban or dark fantasy.

    Have a great weekend!

    Oooh, I'm definitely not a horror fan! I get too twitchy and anxious while reading, lol.

    I'm glad that your mum is doing well! I hope the rest of her recovery is as smooth.

    I read fantasies and mysteries/thrillers. I don't like horror :( but I did have my horror phase when I was a teenager... I'm quite picky about what I read.

    Have a nice weekend!

    Good news about your Mum, Freda. x
    This week's BBH question was an easy one for me to answer. Considering my blog is packed with reviews for paranormal romance and urban fantasy books, I don’t think it’ll come as a surprise that my 💜 favourite 💜 reading genre is adult PARANORMAL ROMANCE! 😘 I did, however, read lots of horror in my teens and adolescent years.
    I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend, Freda.
    Here's my BBH Post

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
