20160826 Five Things You Should Try
It's summertime and while waiting for a less hot evening I have decided to share some of the things I like with you ...
Everybody knows Harry Potter and Donkey Kong, so I try to come up with some maybe not-so-known or older stuff, because you would be bored if I only suggest things you already know. Maybe this could be an inspiration for you to go to your cellar or attic to look for some old boxes ...

- The Harry Dresden novels written by Jim Butcher, about a mage working in Chicago.
