![]() ![]() The resulting deliberations see the novice X-Men dragged into space, the Guardians involved, and a story that constantly twists around. ![]() She’s unhappy on learning about this, and those alien powers aren’t happy that she’s apparently back. It had been an eye-popping ride even before they learned Jean Grey’s destiny was to grow up, suck in a powerful galactic force, wipe out a planet and be executed after a trial by the galaxy’s great alien powers. It teams the Guardians with the X-Men, then also being written by Bendis, and showcasing his smart idea of pulling the original young teenage X-Men forward in time to the 21 st century. It’s the Jean Grey story that hits all the right notes, although may confuse fans who’ve never read Guardians of the Galaxy, but were drawn in by the movie poster cover on Vol. A second hardcover collection of Brian Michael Bendis’ Guardians of the Galaxy stories features the finest story he produced as it combines what was issued in paperback as The Trial of Jean Grey and Guardians Disassembled. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sarah's words strike the perfect chord of relatability and biting honesty.

Whether it’s alcohol, food, exercise, or work, so many of us are grasping for control and struggling to keep our heads above water.Ĭandid, dynamic, Drinking Games speaks to the millennial experience of working hard, playing harder, and wanting everything to look perfect on social media. While many millennial women will see themselves in Sarah's words and story, Drinking Games is dedicated to anyone who feels like their private struggles are terminally unique.

Dion then would travel to China to run a 155 mile race in the Gobi Desert of Northern China. After persevering through his first marathon in France, Dion’s next race was an ultra-marathon race in South Africa where he finished 6th. Improving their fitness was their inspiration for starting the sport recreationally and then as race competitors.

Hedlund assures us she’s aware we 21st-century readers might have difficulty understanding a 19th-century English woman’s hesitation to step outside of societal norms. Thank goodness for Hedlund’s author’s notes. She brought to mind that verse in James about a double-minded person that is "blown and tossed by the wind.” (James 1:6 NLT) Just when I thought, "Now she’ll come to her senses and understand which direction to go,” she would falter and backpedal faster than a carriage whose horses are spooked.
