Jungle animals help return Mowgli to the man village even though Mowgli doesn’t want to leave the jungle. We both picked Kaa the Snake as our favorite character and really enjoyed King Louie’s scene. Andie rated based on the nostalgia factor and it didn’t quite compare to Robin Hood for Allie but overall a good old fashioned animated movie.
-
This is the second pick in our short story mini series! Awayland by Ramona Ausubel has 11 short stories, one of them being Club Zeus. David takes a summer job in a foreign country as a story teller. Will he have crazy tales to share when he gets home?!

Triple the taxes! The classic tale of Robin Hood in animal form was one of Allie’s childhood favorites. Oodelally means yippee or hooray in case you were wondering. Join us as we discuss the animated story!
-
Everybody knows the name Frankenstein but have you actually read the story before? Neither of us had and turns out the story is not at all what we thought. Unethical science and MURDER!!! Let us know what you thought of this classic novel!
-
Allie and Andie both decided they would not go back in time to high school to relive any moments. Live and learn! Jenna Rink wakes up as a 30 year old woman when she was just 13 yesterday! She makes some questionable choices that we definitely did not agree with. Let us know what you think of the iconic dress! Are you a fan or is it overrated?
-
The first story in our next short story mini series is You Can Find Love Now which can be found in Awayland by Ramona Ausubel. Awayland contains several short stories and we will be reading three in total. The story focuses on a cyclops who is filling out a dating questionnaire on a dating site. We enjoyed this story but we would both swipe left on Mr. Cyclops! Too many red flags!!!

SomeBODY once told me… that Shrek was this week’s episode. Did you know the original Shrek was scrubbed from the internet?!?! Shrek (the movie) was based off of Shrek (a children’s picture book) and we never knew it existed. We both loved rewatching this masterpiece!!
-
Sarah and Eddie fall in love in just 7 days but then he ghosts her! What happened to Eddie?! We both thought Sarah should have gotten the message after 2 unanswered texts. This book is classified as a thriller but we agreed that this is the loosest form of a thriller that we’ve read. Overall, we were both “middle of the road” on this one.
-
Halloween People is our last short story from Helen Ellis’ Southern Lady Code. Ellis describes the difference between Halloween People and Christmas People. She needs help with an outfit for a party since she is a Christmas Person. Her friend Karen, who is a Halloween Person, goes with her on a shopping trip. Let us know if you are a Halloween Person or a Christmas Person!

Andie had not seen this movie since roughly 2012 and Allie saw it 3 weeks ago… we had mixed feelings on this movie but still an overall positive review. So many funny one liners and anything with Stanley Tucci is sure to be a good watch. Biggest take away is that no job is worth this amount of stress!!! That’s all…
-
Up next in the Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis is Serious Women! A murder trial is conducted by several serious women and Ellis is in attendance to show her support for her friend, Meredith, the prosecutor. This story has a very different tone and feel than the first two stories we read. Let us know what you think!
-
Overlapping storylines all happening on New Year’s Eve! Directed by our fave director, the one and only Garry Marshall, New Year’s Eve is packed with a huge list of famous actors and actresses. Although neither of us rated this movie very highly (can you believe Allie didn’t like a Garry Marshall movie??), it’s not a bad option to play in the background around the holiday. Let us know which character you liked the most!
-
Eleanor and Timby spend the day looking for Joe because he’s not where he says he is. Panic ensues and Eleanor’s scatterbrained way of thinking causes her to make decisions that are questionable. Definitely read the book over listening to the audiobook on this one! Let us know what you thought of this book!
-
A Christmas time favorite! We both appreciated Kate Winslet’s character the most. Let us know if you would do a home exchange with a stranger! Andie would with limitations…Allie would not haha.
-
Allie and Andie take a dive into Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis! We started out learning how to be the best guest at a dinner party and when it is appropriate to write a thank you note. Helen Ellis writes in true southern style with a hilarious southern accent. We hope you enjoyed these short stories!
-
Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan are the perfect mother/daughter duo in this hilarious early 2000s movie. You would only rate it 1 out of 5 fortune cookies if your name is Stacey Hinkhouse! So many funny scenes and quotes throughout the film! Let us know what you rate this movie!
-
So good!! The twists were unexpected though Allie’s guess about who was responsible for the murders was mostly right. Willingham’s debut novel is a must read! Definitely let us know how you liked it!
-
We had mixed feelings on this documentary. Beautiful photos and videos but questionable ethics regarding interaction with the octopus and other marine life. If you have seen it, let us know how you felt about it!
-
We are rounding out our short story series by Val McDermid this week with another good one! Kelly Jane quickly goes from Christmas Hero to Santa Claus Killer…or are things not really as they seem?? We hope you enjoyed our 4 stories by Val McDermid! Let us know which one you liked best!
-
Emma Stone and Emma Thompson both knock it out of the park with their performances in Cruella. We both enjoyed the villain’s back story, even if it wasn’t necessary to be told. Let us know which costume was your favorite from the movie!
