I used to read a crap ton in middle & high school, but it's rare for me today. I used to love the Redwall & Inheritance series (pictured below), but also enjoyed the occasional Tom Clancy title, and there were a few other "young adult" series I've read but mostly forgotten.
Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)
I'd like to read The Inheritance Cycle at some point. I enjoy high fantasy and have heard some really enjoy the series. Some others seem to think it's pretty derivative though. Depends on who I ask.
@MarioLover92 That's cool. Can't count how many times Peach's floating helped me reach the goal in Super Mario 3D World. The very top of the flagpole.
@Tyranexx You're welcome. I think I borrowed the original from a neighbor during the SNES days, but I did play 2 and 3 on rental. There is quite a bit to collect in DK64 IIRC. I played it earlier in the year, but haven't played it recently. I downloaded several old N64 favorites to Wii U, while I still can get them. Also grabbed Pokemon Snap and Super Mario 64.
@Anti-Matter Not the comic book, but I saw that particular anime on a TV last year. Ordered Chinese food at a local restaurant, and they had a TV and it showing that particular anime. Watched a bit while I was waiting for the food to be done, it looked cute.
@Sunsy The SNES I used to play on belonged to my cousins; my aunt babysat me frequently, with a few breaks, until my parents deemed me old enough to be home alone after school. I have fond memories of playing platformers and reading in my aunt's basement (after homework).
Another reason I grabbed DKC 2 is because it was one of a handful of games I still needed to download off the Wii U eShop before it inevitably closes. I don't want to have to rush to pick up everything once the announcement drops.
@Tyranexx That's cool you were able to play on your cousins' SNES. Similarly, I have memories playing Mario Kart 64 on my cousin's N64. Now I have the game on Wii U as well. I feel the same way, trying to get some of the games off the Wii U eShop before it ever closes.
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
@RR529 I remember those Christopher Paolini books. The books were marvelous. I finished Eragon &Eldest back in middle school never read the last in the series for some reason. Looking at that picture of the set has brought back nice childhood memories. Thank you.
Going to order the whole series(and finally finish it), just to lose myself.
The Harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

@ogo79 Just wait a little for some apocalyptic events and you will be one of the richest people in the new wasteland with that "treasure"

"would you like to try one of our famous mystery meat burgers?"
"whats in them?"
"we dont know ourselves."

After all we should be honest
