I finally read Steve Cavanagh's Th1rt3en.
Crime/Courtroom thriller, Absorbing. Fast paced, with lots of "oh my".
Not quite edge of the seat for me, but was still a great read.

Been quite awhile since I had to use my #BeatTheBacklog tag, since it's been quite awhile since I last played something in my backlog.
#PokemonX complete. Pokemon League beaten with Delphox, Pidgeot, Lucario, Raichu, Blastoise, and Xerneas.
Then capped Mewtwo for nostalgia.

Not a whole lot of writing done tonight, but I got a much more succinct outline done for my next #FreedomPlanet story, and more progress in Black Mesa as I continue to #BeatTheBacklog.

Beat the Backlog: Frogger Returns
Naming a work “_____ Returns” is a statement. Perhaps the property went into dormancy for years or even decades. Maybe the latest entries lost sight of what made its predecessors so compelling. Regardless, the talent working on this installment are confident; they know that this installment will put the franchise back on track! Just look at Donkey Kong Country: after series developer Rare was purchased by industry newcomer Microsoft, Donkey Kong lost the widespread appeal it had for what most wrote off as…

I'm dusting off the old handhelds as well. Never beat this when I got it nearly a decade ago.

My first #BeatTheBacklog game, Black Mesa, is done.
Never played the original Half-Life. I figured if I ever made the time to do so, then the plot of HL2 would make a little more sense.
I was mistaken.
And Xen really overstayed its welcome. I know it was the weak point, but that was overkill.

I got New Pokemon Snap back at launch in 2021, and for some reason, it got away from me pretty quickly, even though wildlife photography is one of my novice hobbies.
I'm surprised at just how much content is in this game.
