Back In Japan

nrgburstFor another month or so, but just wanted to say: still alive but in a creative funk again, so I'm not making anything, and I haven't done for months, although I've been chipping at the last chapter of Discretion.
Things I've loved but have not gushed about here and really should:
The Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo. I tried her Shadow and Bone trilogy too, but Six of Crows was BY FAR better. NO MOURNERS NO FUNERALS
The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Pitch Perfect narrator voice. I'm buying my own copy once we get back to Canada.
Queer Eye is my happy place and I've gotten my whole family hooked. The Fab Five are ALL my fave. Can't wait for S3!
Lost In Space was also surprisingly good!
A Quiet Place. OMG. I usually HATE horror films but this wasn't gratuitously gory to frighten and therefore I enjoyed it a lot.
The Greatest Showman. Zendaya is such an amazing singer, I really wished there were more solos for her in it. Otherwise egads, what music!
The Incredibles 2 was wonderful! Really want to see it again, because I was single parenting again, and therefore missed some of it to take kiddo to the toilet.
I actually liked Infinity War even though they killed one fave and the other didn't appear. She'll probably show up to save the day in part 2 but DAMMIT.
Other stuff I should talk about:
Haven't finished the last season of AoS yet, but I will at some point! It was just too hard to juggle that and all the Japanese school volunteering I had to do on Friday nights/Saturdays, so I got out of the groove and storylines. The Originals is back too, and I stopped watching for a couple weeks when I realized they were offscreening Hayley to kill her. Caught up when they brought Kol back and then UGH THEY KILLED JOSH. I am only watching for Kolvina at this point, LBR, so the next ep has me, but interest is definitely waning. :(
How is everybody? Anything big I missed?
