Stephy Plays Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Last time on Hades

Claudia moved in. Caught some fish. Pancakes.

 

 
Ignore my eye. Bees got me.

I always feel so bad for scaring Wisp.

So awesome... 😍

That's all for this one.

Stephy Plays Animal Crossing: New Horizons

 Last time on Hades

I got a new room on my house, invited a new villager to move onto the island. And I caught a bunch of bugs and fish.

 


Woo! New villager!

I have been making wreaths anytime I get a recipe for one and hanging them up. And then I thought I lost my wreaths because I was looking around the room and couldn't see them. They are above my character's eye line... But yeah. Wreaths!

Not a great shot of Wisp, but yay! Wisp!




We're just stargazing together...





Yeah. Agree.
 
 That's all for this one. See y'all next week.

Star Wars Young Jedi Knights: Shards of Alderaan by Kevin J. Anderson and Rebecca Moesta


About/Summary

The seventh book in the Young Jedi Knights series by Kevin J. Anderson and Rebecca Moesta. After the battle against the Shadow Academy, it is time for the Jedi Academy to rebuild. Which is the perfect time for Jacen and Jaina Solo and their friends to go off on their own adventure. Meanwhile, Zekk is off to find himself.

 


Content/Trigger Warnings

minor character death


Characters

The usual gang of Baby Jedi - Jacen and Jaina Solo (Han and Leia's twin children), Lowbacca (Chewbacca's nephew) and Tenel Ka (the daughter of Teneniel Djo and Prince Isolder of Hapes).

Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Chewbacca also show up for a bit.

Oh yeah, and Boba Fett shows up. But he does not have enough screen time to warrant that big of a picture on the cover.
 


Writing

Same as the other books. Writing is good, but it is a book for children, so don't expect exceptional literature.
 

Plot

Raynar Thul (another Baby Jedi)'s father has gone missing. But, who cares about that? Jacen, Jaina and their friends are going to the asteroid field that used to be Alderaan to get their mom a present for her birthday. As one does...

 

How diverse is it?

Does Boba Fett count as a person of color? If not, just a bunch of white people doing... white people things in space, I guess.
 

Overall Thoughts

Boba Fett shows up! And is somehow outsmarted by a bunch of teenagers. Best bounty hunter in the galaxy over here.

Zekk goes back to his home planet, which that place pretty much destroys itself every eight years. And it is time for death and destruction when Zekk gets there. I'm with Zekk... Why keep living there?

This book begins the second arc in the Young Jedi Knights series. First arc dealt with the Shadow Academy. this arc is the Diversity Alliance arc. Which, we don't learn much about them in this book, just that Raynar's (a fellow Jedi trainee who has had a small role in the previous books) father, Bornan Thul, was supposed to meet the leader of the Diversity Alliance and no one has heard from him. Most suspicious.

Good book overall.


That's all for this one.

Stephy Plays Animal Crossing: New Horizons

 Last time on Hades

Flick stopped by, Daisy left the island, I caught a bunch of fish and bugs, and I paid off a loan!

 


Got myself a new room! Woo!


Who are you and will you move to my island?

Woo! New villager!


Woo!


Blathers teaches me so much.


Dear gods... 






Free mahi-mahi!





 That's all for this one.

Stephy Plays Animal Crossing: New Horizons

 Last time on Hades

I caught a lot of things...

 





Woo! Time to make it bigger!
 
Good luck, Daisy.
 
Of course I remember you, Flick. I love you.
 

Well, thanks, Flick. Now I'm gonna have nightmares about bugs crawling on me...
 
You're welcome, Mr. Nook. Now... Make it bigger!



 Well, that's all for this one.
