Lost Boys Book 30


As everyone should know by now, I'm a fan of the 1987 movie called “The Lost Boys.” I have all three movies, “The Lost Boys,” “The Lost Boys: The Tribe” and “The Lost Boys: The Thirst.” I have the comics “Lost Boys: Reign of Frogs” that came out in 2008. I also have the soundtrack. I'm also wondering how the television series is going to look. Per Hollywood Reporter, a reboot of “The Lost Boys” is still happening!

I do need to get the movie tie-in book. Yes, you read that right. Craig Shaw Gardner wrote the book back in 1987. The book was his first novelization. The downside to this book is that not many copies were printed. You can search the internet to find a copy, which can range from $40 up to $300 or more dollars, depending on the condition of the book. When the “Twilight” saga hit, they should have made a second printing of “The Lost Boys.” It would have flown off the shelves.

I also need to get the comics that came out via Vertigo Comics, which hit shelves back in October of 2016. The comic books are geared towards the Blood Belles, in other words, “The Lost Girls.” These comics were created by Tim Seeley, Scott Godlewski and Patricia Mulvihill. The covers are by Tony Harris. The graphic novel will have all six of the comics, will be released on August 9th, 2017 and will cost $16.99. August is when I was born, so this will make a great birthday present.

That isn't all that is coming out in August. Got to love the U.K.! Per Bloody Disgusting, Graham Humphreys, who is an illustrator and graphic designer in London, along with Paul Davis, Cult Screenings Ltd. and Dead Mouse Productions, has created a book that is packed with over 400 scene photos and interviews with the cast and crew. The book is called “Lost in the Shadows: The Story of The Lost Boys.” You can pre-order the book on May 31st. If you live in the U.K., it will cost £26.99 plus £7 for the postage. Now us here in the U.S., be prepared, because it will cost us $34.99 plus $20 for the shipping cost. The first 1,000 copies will be numbered and signed by the author. The books will be shipped out in mid-August of this year. My birthday is in mid-August. This book and the graphic novel would make great birthday presents—think the hubby will get the hint?

You know something? With the graphic novel and this new book coming out in August, this is a good time to release a second printing of Craig Shaw Gardner's novelization of the movie.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
