Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated The Red Knight (The Traitor Son Cycle, #1) in Books
Apr 27, 2018
This is another one of those books that I liked, but didn't finish for one reason or another. Right now in my life I've had to stop listening to the audiobook so many times that I don't remember names and what's going on. However I absolutely loved what I listened to. Hopefully the next time I go on a long car-trip i'll be able to focus on it and make some headway on it.

A little bit action and a whole lot of nostalgia
Very possible future society. Full story that ends with twists and turns, with a completely relatable protagonist. Wade's behavior and perspectives are realistic and attainable - he reminds me of my 18 year old in many ways. Also, if you do the audiobook, Wil Wheaton narrates, and he's a wonderful narrator.
The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated Sadness Is a White Bird in Books
Oct 5, 2020
In this debut novel, author Moriel Rothman-Zecher delves into both the political and the emotional conflicts that can exist between Jewish and Palestinian Israelis. However, despite the gravity of this subject, the author gives us a novel that is expressively written, that is important reading for anyone who wants to better understand the people behind these tenuous struggles. You can read more about this book in my review here.

It's been almost 18 month since I read the first book in this series and I'd forgotten pretty much everything that went on, though some of it came back to me as I read this.
I gave the first book 5 stars but really struggled with the style of this. My tastes have probably changed in the last year but it felt rather stilted and unlike other books we didn't really get a recap of previous events.
Not for me.

The app, when it works as designed, isn't terrible. The problem is that it rarely works as designed.
Constant automatic refreshes to the feed make reading through the days events nearly impossible. Ads are intrusive. If I see one more notification telling me how to vote I'm going to scream. I've been a registered voter since I was 18. I've never not voted in an election cycle. I should have the opportunity to turn off the notifications that I get three times a day.

Lindsay (1706 KP) rated The Bleikovat Event in Books
Jan 25, 2020
This story is well written. You get the grip of the story soon as it started. It about a battle between two clans. It is worth reading. I will warn you that it is not suitable for anyone under 18+. It got some graphic scenes. It rated PG13 by the book tour company but I would have at least stated it for 14 years and up. Maybe even 18 and up. That is me. Parents have the right to choose and decide if it worth having their child or children reading this book and their maturity.
There seems to be a war that on though out the book. It a battle between Beakovats and Feldovats. If you read on you will find that they refer the Feldovats as Feldon. This where most of the fighting goes on which is along the Feldon River. Will it happen to Feldovats? Will, they survive? Bleikovats are invading lands.
The Feldovats end up in Eedov City facing their enemy. What happens when they escape on the Maalon freighters and heading a new life? Some Bleikovats are so bent on destroying all of the Fe

Nov 23, 2019
Probably my favourite from season 18 saved the best for last not perfect not the best forth doctor story by any means but a good way for the doctor to go out after 7 years in the part. will always be my number one doctor the one I grew up with back in 70s now I've watched it in hi definition it looks amazing. But the worst part still for me is adric didn't like him then but I suppose now I tolrate his character. Good story
Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
Spielberg has said on record many times that taking this job was one of the worst decisions of his career. He shouldn’t be so hard on himself though as for the most part, The Lost World is great fun.
The characters are fleshed out more and the special effects are once again top-notch but there’s a spark from the first film that’s notable by its absence. Things pick up through the much-maligned finale in San Diego but the franchise began to take a tumble only halted 18 years later…

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2099 KP) rated Three Bags Full in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When their shepherd is killed, the flock decide to figure out who would kill him. The premise was interesting and different but the first half was very slow as we spent all kinds of time learning about life in the pasture. There were some fun passages as the sheep tried to figure humans out. Eventually, the plot did get moving, although between the 18 sheep plus the humans, I had a hard time keeping everything straight.
