What have I been Reading/Playing Lately? As well as some Personal Covid-19 Updates

How’s it going guys? I was hoping to have my review for Axiom’s End finished and posted today, but with the way things have gone it seems like that will be my Saturday post this week instead. I have really loved reading it and I really can’t wait to finish it up and share my thoughts on it with you all. Axiom’s End is really the only book I have been reading, I usually have two or even three books in progress at a time, but for some reason I haven’t been able to focus on too many things at once right now. I will say though, I have really been toying around with the idea of rereading the Harry Potter series and doing reviews on each of them and how they have held up for me. Let me know what you think about that idea.

In terms of video games I’ve been playing, I am still going strong on animal crossing! I’ve had a lot of fun with the May updates that brought Redd and Leif to the island as well as the May Day maze. I thought the maze island was a cute little way to put a puzzle in Animal Crossing and I really hope they do more little things like that in the future to keep things fresh. My dad actually started playing somewhat recently as well and he came to visit my island which was super cool!

I also recently started playing Trials of Mana. The remake not the original. I decided to download it on PS4 rather than Switch and the graphical upgrade and frame rate improvements seem to be worth it so far. I am still early on in the game, but it seems to be a pretty good rpg. I don’t think it will be winning any awards or anything, but I am having fun with it so far. I am really interested to see more of this game. I think this should hold me over nicely until The Last of Us Part II and Ghost of Tsushima come out.

Finally with regards to the Coronavirus updates, the state I live in has begun lifting restrictions. This means the mall I work in has reopened to the public and the company I work for has opened as well. Today is actually the first day I will be going in and working with the public directly and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t at least a little scared or apprehensive about the entire situation. I wish I had the luxury to stay home and wait things out a little longer, but with the way things are I can’t afford to not be making money. Wish me luck guys!

So that’s it for today! I just wanted to give an update on where I stood on things currently and talk to you guys. Are you guys in places that are reopening? If so how are you handling it? If not, let me know what you guys have been up to? As always, thanks so much for reading! Check back (at least) every Wednesday and Saturday for new posts and sign-up via email to make sure you never miss anything!
