Galavant
Galavant is the "Shrek" of the Epic Hero's Journey, except it stopped short of running the franchise into the ground. It's extremely self-aware, knows how to keep the plot-twists coming without overdoing them, balances truly touching emotional moments with side-splitting comedy, and comes with a catchy, singalong soundtrack.

Does size matter?
Does size matter? Am I critiquing an actual work here? Nope. Just expressing a thought. How big should a link be at the end of an article? I often like my pics for covers, because some Unsplash images make links too large when linked at the bottom of an article.

Narnia is an inventive twist of deep metaphors and complex timelines. C.S. Lewis blends the rich history of World War II with a whimsical and extraordinary storyline. This story attracts both the avid scholar and the imaginative child as it lures the reader to enter into the story itself.

Crime and Punishment
A challenging book, but one that rewards those that give it a chance. Dostoevsky's masterpiece about a Russian student who plans and executes a murder, seemingly without any remorse. He is an intellectual afterall. Then spends most of the book descending into painful depression, guilt and anxiety over the crime.
