On this weeks Manuscript Monday Virginia recommends "Remarkably Bright Creatures" by Shelby Van Pelt.
If you are in need of a book that brings you light, a dose of sweetness and with complexities within the characters, this book by Shelby Van Pelt is what you've been looking for. Remarkably Bright Creatures follows an aging woman who cleans the local aquarium at night. She befriends an octopus named Marcellus and their two lives get interwoven as the story unfolds.
While it may not seem like a typical storyline you may reach for, I assure you, this story will leave you feeling uplifted.
For some chaotic FPS fun that you can play directly in your browser, "Funny Shooter" 2 is a solid choice. It's over-the-top and great for a quick gaming session.
For adults wondering about autism spectrum traits, the RAADS-R is a known questionnaire. You can find an online version of the "RAADS-R Test" to explore. Remember, it's a screener, not a diagnostic tool.
If you need blank music sheets quickly, instead of buying a notebook, you can find printable "Staff Paper" online. It’s very handy for jotting down musical ideas or for students.
Choosing the right mattress can be confusing with all the different names. Referring to a chart of "Bed Sizes" and their dimensions online really helps visualize how much space each one actually offers.
Understanding key signatures and chord relationships in music can be much easier with a visual aid. An interactive "Circle of Fifths" tool online really helps to see how it all connects.
