The Dead Zone (Television Series)
I had no intention of watching this entire series since it was on for six seasons. Then, I thought I would watch a couple episodes to see if it was interesting at all. Next thing I knew, it was my background television for a few weeks....
The Dead Zone (1983 Movie)

Beartown
Have you ever cried while reading a book in public? This almost happened to me while reading Beartown. I should have known better. At a certain point while reading another book by Fredrik Backman (My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry), I started crying and didn’t stop until...
