I just watched it. It was good!

Why are you trying to make my TBR even longer!?! LOL

I like Sonja Sohn; I'm still trying to warm up to the woman who plays Faith, though.

I'm not showing Season 2 of Reacher yet. I hope to see it soon!

I think the 3rd episode of Will Trent came out on HULU this morning. I'm going to check after work.

42178 I stopped watching anything NCIS around the time Abby left. My heart wasn't in it, and I was upset that I could not watch NCIS: Los Angeles from the beginning. I liked NCIS: New Orleans, but I think they were also going through some character changes. So I haven't seen NCIS Hawaii at all.

If, at some point, all of the seasons are available for all of the shows (without costing a million bucks), I might try to do a mega rewatch of the whole franchise.

42178 I am currently on a TV kick. I read a few pages a day to keep my daily trend going, but I over-committed, and my system is forcing me to take a break.

This weekend (including MLK day yesterday), I watched:

Will Trent [HULU] ~ Only two episodes were available at the time, but they are already fun. You know, if you find kidnapping and murder fun. LOL, I am still warming up to the characters.

Reacher [Amazon Prime ] ~ I binged Season 1. I enjoyed the characters and the moments of levity. The lead actor emotes well (and is not bad on the eyes at all!) The show is based on a series by Lee Child (The first book is Killing Floor); interestingly enough, I put the book on my wishlist on Christmas day and forgot. Ha.
I am looking forward to Season 2.

Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan ~ [Amazon Prime] ~ I rebinged Season 1. Enjoyed it just as much as the last time. I am currently watching Season 2. I like watching John Krasinski as Jack. I don't know if I want to read the books, though. I am glad Season 3 is already out.

I also tried Alert: Missing Person Unit [HULU]. But 1. Scott Caan is not a good actor! He's basically playing the same character from Hawaii Five-O. He has a wooden style. 2. I do NOT like the twist they're going with (view spoiler); it completely rubbed me the wrong way. So, I do not think I will be watching a second episode.

42178 OOF. Guess it's an excellent way to know to stay away from him.

42178 So, three days ago, I learned about Nextdoor from your comment; today, I got an invite (in my mailbox) to join one set up for this neighborhood.
Nope, I'm not creeped out at all! LOL

42178 Wow! You're doing awesomely well!

I hadn't heard of Nextdoor. I just looked it up. Interesting concept.

Congrats on finishing your first read of the year!! :)

42178 Thank you! :D

I used to do that (which is why I have a "separated omnibuses" shelf). I wanted the number of books read to be reflected correctly. I have a minimum of four omnibuses slated for this year (including The Great Book of Amber); separating everything feels like too much trouble now. LOL So, I'll just let it be.

42178 While I technically finished my first book of the new year of January 4th - Nine Princes in Amber, I am now officially on the GR board with my completion of the Vengeance in Death / Holiday in Death / Conspiracy in Death / Loyalty in Death / Witness in Death omnibus.

My page count is slightly exaggerated, though, as I only read two of the five stories this year.

42178 Of course! (((HUGS)))

42178 First?

You can do it!! :)

42178 Hi! HimS!! I'm happy to see you!

Happy New Year! May you and yours have a Wonderful 2023!!

42178 What a year!! 2022 on Goodreads
Dec 31, 2022 12:34AM

42178 I found #160 The Expanse: Origins!
This might be my last read of 2022.

42178 I need to find one more title to close out the year. With the inclusion of the titles that I have read from the omnibuses on my "Currently Reading" shelf, the final title will make 160 reads for the year!

42178 It looks nice! I was looking at one on Etsy yesterday as well. It was $10 and change. It looked overwhelming & intimidating!

Please keep us posted on the one you are using.

I know nothing about GoodNotes and have just started using OneNote because of work.
