The Best of Netflix Crime Shows

Crime shows are something I always remember being interested in. Catching bad guys, getting justice for the victims, and the thrill of the hunt make them a pretty popular form of entertainment.   These types of shows go all over board as far as content in concerned. Some focus on serial killers, others on drug trafficking, and yet others are centered around different types of crime entirely.   After sorting through and watching a whole bunch over the years, I’d love to share with you what I consider to be the best Netflix crime shows and movies!   Ozark Featuring…

The 2 Most Surprising Young Adult Novels I’ve Ever Read

Sometimes, you read regular, old books. Other times, you read good books. And, if you’re really lucky, occasionally you’ll read books that will change your life.

Those first few weeks of workouts were brutal, absolute torture. And then before I knew it, three months later…
