Going to the fair with Jack...

If there was one thing you and Jack could agree on it was the summer was the best time of year. While you loved everything about summer, the colder drinks, the warmer weather, the more relaxed Jack was at the lake house. The one thing you missed was going to the local fair.

In order to go to the fair with Jack, it would have to do with a lot of begging at first, purely because he didn't want to risk running into fans. But once you pouted ever so slightly and widened your eyes, both of you hell even Luke knew you both were going to the fair that night.

Going to the fair with Jack would include, a night time visit because with the hope of running into less kids Jack would say. It would include bumper car rides where it became a competetion between the two of you for who could bump the other more. Of course, you won but Jack would make a comment about how he let you win.

A night at the fair would be riding all the sketchy rides twice, stolen ferris wheel kisses and starring at the pretty lights. A night at the fair would include eating all the classic 'fair food' from cotton candy, to funnel cakes, to ice cream, to BBQ and more. Jack would definitely be complaining about how bad he cheated on his diet. But you would choose to ignore him until his complaining became unbearable where you would joke that next year you will just bring Luke. Your small comment causing you Jack to literally chase you around the fair for even daring to say you would bring his little brother over him "your boyfriend of almost a year."

A night at the fair would definitely include Jack spending way too much money at some random stand trying to win you the stuffed animal that happened to be your favorite animal. Finally after winning you the stuffy after what seemed like forever and $100 dollars later. Jack and you would spend even more time at the dart stand trying to pop as many balloons as you both could. Both taking turns chirping each other and laughing at how terrible you both apparently were at something that seemed so simple.

Going to the fair with Jack would be the best night of the summer. A night filled with laughs, stolen kisses and both of you radiating pure happiness and a lifetime of memories. The night would definitely end with you both exhausted coming home where you attempted to join Luke and Quinn in a movie night but fell asleep cuddled together on the floor out of pure exhaustion. Somehow neither of the brothers waking you, just throwing a blanket over you both and calling it a night themselves.

"Speak of the devil," James teased, digging Sirius in the side with his elbow to get him to look over in Remus' direction.

As Remus crossed the Gryffindor Common Room and sunk down in the armchair before the fireplace, he had the uncomfortable feeling that whatever James and Sirius had been talking about had been giving them great amusement.

The ghost of a smile still lingered on Sirius' face as he looked down at the copy of the Daily Prophet he was pretending to read. He affected a tone of disinterest and said, "Maybe we should ask Moony for tips?"

"Tips?" Remus' voice wavered.

Sirius smirked down at the paper.

"Oh yes. I'm sure there's a great deal we could learn."

Remus looked imploringly in James' direction.

James grew a little pink as he said, "Oh, there's just this rumour going round.. well, not a rumour. Just some girls were overheard talking and...erm..." James looked at Sirius and said, "Well, you heard it, Padfoot."

Sirius folded his paper and fixed his attention keenly on Remus' face as he said, adopting a voice a few octaves higher than his own, "That Lupin boy is an amazing kisser."

Remus felt his cheeks burning, heard James snort, and wished the ground would swallow him. There were worse things to hear that people were saying behind your back. But he'd rather not get into all this, right now, with them.

Especially not him.

"Well, Moony?" Sirius asked. He was not going to leave it.

Remus had no choice but to laugh as though he didn't care. He ran his hands through his hair in what hoped appeared to be a relaxed manner and was gratified to see a dark look cross Sirius' face when he said with a shrug, "Mischief managed."

"Hear that, Tessa? I'm the devil. So are you" is soooo fascinating taking into account Will does think he is cursed but at the same time by this point he already sees Tessa as his equal.

This is legit my face when the Feysand, Rhysand & Feyre stans say something along the lines of this when it comes to Tamlin not being able to help Feyre UTM

Them: Tamlin could have helped Feyre, could have done something & not just sit there & watch her suffer

Me: erm…Tamlin sent Feyre BACK OVER THE FUCKING WALL BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WOULD’NT BE ABLE TO HELP HER, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE HIM DO??!!

Them: I don’t know do something to help her

Me: are you slow? What part of HE WAS IN NO POSITION TO EVEN REACT TO FEYRE MUCH MORE GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO HER TO HELP HER DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!! He literally sent Lucien to aid her because he could not & as a result of that Tamlin had to whip his own best friend for trying to aid her, before that Lucien told Feyre that Tamlin couldn’t get anywhere near her because he was being watched like a hawk, did you also forget Rhysand REITERATING THE EXACT SAME THING LUCIEN SAID FIRST?!?!!! Did you forget what Amarantha did to Clare Beddor when she thought Clare was the one Tamlin loved? How did Clare end up? Oh yeah that’s right DEAD, DEAD AS ONE CAN FUCKING BE, more than that DID YOU FORGET THAT TAMLIN HAD NO ACCESS TO HIS MAGIC, why?…BECAUSE THE SHE-DEVIL TOOK THEM!! How do you expect someone who is practically being tied to the hip to a sadistic psychopathic tyrant, who has no access to his magic & to our knowledge minimal knowledge of his way around UTM to get himself out ALIVE & the love of his life out ALIVE?! Not to fucking mention RHYSAND STILL HAD ACCESS TO A PART OF HIS MAGIC & DID NOTHING TO GET HER OUT!!

Them: he still could have done something

Me: he wha-🤬🤬🤬😤😤😤🫠🫠🫠😃😃😃🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

Saint Veronica Giuliani

1660-1727

Feast day: July 9

Saint Veronica, an Italian Capuchin Poor Clare, whose baptismal name was Ursula, is one of the greatest mystics in the Church. Her life was one of the cross and pain, uniting her sufferings with Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection, eventually receiving the stigmata. In her Diary of 22,000 pages, we learn of her ecstatic visions of Jesus, saints, souls in purgatory and of the devil. St. Veronica was devoted to the Eucharist and Sacred Heart, trusting God totally, abandoning herself completely to His will. Her heart is incorrupt to this day.

The Grandest Game Book Review

The Grandest Game Book Review by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

I feel like I’m writing about Jennifer Lynn Barnes constantly. 

Thankfully, this is not a case of diminishing returns. 

In fact, this might be Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ best novel yet, which is astounding to me. 

The Grandest Game is now the…fifth book in the Inheritance Games series which is insane, but it’s also the first installment in a spinoff series.

So related but not a direct sequel, although you would be lacking in a significant amount of understanding if you had not read the first four books of the Inheritance Games.

At this point, Jennifer Lynn Barnes is becoming the new Cassandra Clare.

But back to The Grandest Game, one of the key differences is instead of focusing on Avery and the Hawthorne brothers, this novel focuses on other players that have either been invited to play or won themselves a nomination. 

The Grandest Game itself is not that noteworthy, but the plot essentially boils down to this: Avery has set up a competition game where the prize money is $26 million.

Most of the game includes the players getting involuntarily put into teams and trying to solve a series of riddles and puzzles while attempting escape-room antics. 

Avery and the Hawthrone brothers are in the novel, but they’re in the periphery and largely unimportant other than the history they have with the players and the fact that they have masterminded the game. 

However, I can not emphasize enough how much better the book is by not focusing on them. Avery was never much more than a Mary-Sue from the get go and the Hawthorne brothers were all largely one-dimensional cliches.

The side characters who take center stage in this novel are a huge improvement, personality and interest wise. 

Rohan we know from the last book, The Brother Hawthorne, and his POV is fascinating. I’ve always had a soft spot for characters who are selfish and conniving, two characteristics Rohan has in droves. 

However, he also has a good motivation for playing the Grandest Game—getting money to take over the Devil’s Mercy, a secret club that he’s been a part of since he was a child. His penchant for winning always makes his POV fun to read. 

His relationship with Savannah, while predictable, was also really charming. I love relationships that are fierce and fiery, have cat-and-mouse banter, and are between two very stubborn people who don’t want to admit defeat. Every chapter with them working as a team was titillating. 

The POV I enjoyed the most was Gigi’s. Her fun, bubbly personality and bright way of connecting with people and seeing the world was fresh, fun, and authentic.

Her interactions with Knox and Brady were hilarious, but also strangely deep and intriguing, as they were both new characters with a sordid and complicated past with each other. 

Gigi’s intellect shone through while others constantly underestimated her, a plot point that never got old. Gigi trying to piece together what happened with Knox and Brady, while at the same time learning she’s bugged and trying to untangle the larger mystery of who’s on the island, was the most riveting part of the story for me. 

The last POV was for a character named Lyra Kane. Essentially, she’s Avery 2.0. I disliked her POV the most, especially as her motivation to win–saving her childhood home—while nice, was boring.

She also had the hackneyed story arc of being attracted to Grayson Hawthorne while incessantly telling herself to stay away from him (without success). 

The most interesting part of this POV was Grayson’s and Lyra’s interaction with their third teammate, Odette, an older woman who was once involved with Tobias Hawthorne.

I liked Odette’s backstory and the diversity of having an older character, but she was too cryptic throughout the whole novel and then decided to give up her spot at the end, a choice that riddled me with frustration and made her character dip in the favorite department. 

That being said, these three POV’s were still a huge improvement from the banality of Avery’s mind and the vapid love triangle she found herself in of the previous books. 

Instead, we have two interesting perspectives (plus Lyra) to carry this new spinoff series forward, a journey I am wholeheartedly ready to embark on.

Plus, all the riddles are a lot of fun to try and piece together as a reader. It may not be the most complicated of plots, but it’s entertaining and the characters propel it forward with their intersecting relationships and personal motivations. 

Recommendation: The best Jennifer Lynn Barnes novel yet. Read it and try to solve as many of the puzzles as you can (I got two of them!).

Score: 8/10
