Black Widow πŸ•· Rewatch

In case anyone wonders if watching blogs are helpful, used my black widow one today πŸ˜‰

https://listenwirhprecious.com/2021/07/29/black-widow-watching-blog/

I find Marvel’s new show, Hawkeye, to be well connected to the MCU πŸ€” So I thought a refresher would be good πŸ‘πŸ½

Found it to be really helpful πŸ˜‰ Especially in the Marvel Universe, where movies and shows are connected. I find Hawkeye to, especially, be interconnected in the universe

NEW parameters! πŸ‘‡πŸΌ

Noelle Rewatching Blog

Testing out Scener Watch Parties 😏 with my cousin β™₯️ Just wanted to be preparred for the 12/10 viewing of Jingle Jangle πŸ˜‰

Thought πŸ’­ I’ve seen it before but πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ The plot is different from what I remember πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Anna Kendrick is hilarious πŸ˜‚

  • Noelle Kringle – Santa’s daughter
  • Nick Kringle – Santa’s son, Noelle’s brother
  • Gabe – replacement Santa
  • Phoenix, Arizona – where they look for Nick
  • Matt Bautista – Arizona P.I.
  • Alex – Matt’s son
  • Snow-cone – Noelle’s pet lamb πŸ‘
  • Elf/Aunt Polly

Noticed:

  1. Join the party! Can’t copy the link like we used to
  2. Turn off cameras
  3. Chat font is small πŸ₯²

The Earl Takes All Reading Blog

Check-ins/Updates:

Before I begin:

Don’t normally like siblings’ lovers stories πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ but just want to join in on the discussion πŸ€” This is my 2nd Lorraine Heath and I enjoy her stories. Know she’s a renouned author ✍️, so I know it’ll be well written πŸ˜‚ Nervous for this 😬

Chapter 6

The groundwork was lain πŸ€” interesting situation? Definitely a hard situation. Edward (under the guise of Albert) are getting to know each other πŸ‘πŸ½ This first section still has them deAlyng with the issue of grief, which is understandable. In some ways, Edward did die – he has assumed Albert’s identity and life, essentially forsakening his life as he knew it. This is for sure a forbidden romance 

Chapter 17

Edward & Julia 😍 Like seeing them on page together.

The guilt Edward deals with feels real. Glad nothing more happens until after Julia knows πŸ₯² 

I can understand Julia’s situation but I just want her to be happy 😊 

For an angsty story line, this story is fairly light πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

I really like the friend group πŸ‘πŸ½ Them being able to tell it’s Edward, just goes to show how close they are. Makes me curious to find of more about them

Chapter 28

This section contained caretaking β™₯️, truths unveiled, and a deepening bond between Edward and Julia.

End of book πŸ“–

Realized I get so excited when I finish a book, I forget to take a moment and blog πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Enjoyed the epilogue! Atypical πŸ‘πŸ½ Satisfying πŸ‘πŸ½ Feels resolved πŸ‘πŸ½

Mating The Huntress Reading Blog

Check-ins/Updates:

Before I begin:

Like I said, this novella came highly recommended. Going in, knew the general premise: Huntress who is mated to a 🐺 schemes to kill him under the guise of dating him. And she’s not allowed to hunt because of a prophecy πŸ€” So far, the story is just that but I thought it was Victory πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ Feel like I have more questions where Chastity is involved πŸ€” 

I can relate to Chastity, I can only eat in peace when I’m comfortable πŸ˜” But I did hurt for Luke πŸ₯²
