Hatchet by Gary Paulsen
Hatchet was one of, if not the best book I've ever read. I found it hard to put down. Every time I was going to stop reading, I was at a cliffhanger. I was anxious to see what would happen next. I was satisfied at every moment when he found some new method or object. I was devastated when he lost everything.

Stardew Valley (video game)
This fun farming simulator can also be an RPG, a dating simulator, but most importantly it's an indie game. You farm on your farm, make relationships with the citizens of Pelican Town, and even fight monsters. This quirky game has won my heart. I hope it wins yours!
Before I Fall (movie)
I think that this movie was really good because it showed that there are so many different people that we can all be and that kindness shows that being kind can literally save a life.

I Kill the Mockingbird by Paul Acampora
I think I Kill the Mockingbird is an amazing book. It has a great plot, and has lots of humor, but some serious things as well. I like how Paul switches from a sad part to a happy part smoothly, without staying in a sad mood too long. They did have some questionable methods in getting things done, but at least they had a good cause. Overall, I give it a 4.5.
