Mr. Was by Pete Hautman Book Review
Jacob Shaw, Sports Editor
May 18, 2020
With all the extra time the quarantine and social distancing have created, people don’t know what to do or how to pass the time. For me, reading is a great way to escape what’s going on around you and go into the world or time of the characters in a book. I bet a lot of people are trying to find go...

Neha Shaw, Editor-in-Chief
April 29, 2020
Never have I ever… actually watched a good show released on Netflix in more than one sitting. I’m serious. Mostly. “Never Have I Ever”, created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher, is not an exception to this confession. If you need something to binge during quarantine, I’d say this show is pretty b...

Calm by 5SOS
April 1, 2020
WOW! I generally am not a fan of groups I consider to be boy bands or even groups on the fringe of that genre. But Calm is not boy band music. Released on March 27, this music reflects a more mature, grown-up 5SOS. Covering a wide selection of music, the album includes super everything from upbeat, e...

This is Conan Gray's first full-length album. It is the story about Conan’s life, which makes the album extremely personal, and provides a different sense of connection to the artist. His music has been on repeat ever since its debut on March 20th. The songs are a perfect balance of energetic, f...
Stardew Valley Review
Madeline Duncan, Staff Writer
March 31, 2020
The past couple weeks have been hectic, to say the least. I think it’s safe to say that no one has any idea what will happen next. Throughout this time of uncertainty, one thing has kept me sane: Stardew Valley. Stardew Valley is an open-ended, farm-style rpg. You control one character who moves ...

Book Review: Final Six by Alexandra Monir
March 16, 2020
Over the break I read the “Final Six” by Alexandra Monir. This book was a sci-fi love story and I couldn’t get enough. The book is about how earth is going to war with humans, because humans destroyed earth and the international space station picked the top 24 teens in the world to inhibit Jupiter...

Julia Westwood, Staff Writer - Swim, Student Life
March 16, 2020
Over the break I read a book called “The Twin” by one of my favorite authors Natasha Preston, who writes young adult thrillers. The book was recently released on March 3rd. I knew I needed to get my hands on it. This book was a physiological twist, about two twin girls who recently lost their mom and...
