My review of this ARC releasing April 21st ❓️is this your thing or what are you looking for to be released this year? 5 stars I love this series gives me Indiana Jones Nostalgia vibes Unlike other time-traveling books that spend too much explaining the rules, this one gives us the good stuff.

Last year, I collected a lot of craft books and projects that I didn't open or complete. This year, I'm dedicating the weekends to a project that I am slowly developing. (Thank you to family who have gifted me some of these during the year, a special thanks to my Mother in America, who hasalways sent me awesome puzzles and all sorts of crafty projects) Turning this... into something more only using cardboard work in progress:

Still, he is often trying to make things go his way (sometimes to his own detriment
