JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Booksmart (2019) in Movies
Jul 3, 2019
Booksmart is fun and funny, though not as funny as it thinks it is, and has a strong friendship at its core. It takes a while for the film to find its feet and it’s not until Amy and Molly are in full party-hunting-mode that it figures out what it wants to be. The soundtrack is pretty killer though.

JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Anna (2019) in Movies
Jul 9, 2019
Anna is a film that believes it is far smarter than it is and having better execution of all the double-crossing the spies do may have stopped Anna from feeling so repetitive and dull. Model-turned-actress Sasha Luss is serviceable as a model-turned-assassin but unfortunately for her, the film is not serviceable and ends up as messy nonsense.

4.75/5 to be precise! Author Meg Waite Clayton’s newest novel is a biographical, historical, women’s fiction novel about Geertruida Wijsmuller, aka “Tante Truus” who was instrumental in getting thousands of children out of Nazi Germany via the Kindertansport. This powerful and important novel was just released and I hope you’ll read my #bookreview of it on my blog now. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/09/13/saving-a-whole-world/

The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated Brides in the Sky: Stories and a Novella in Books
Oct 7, 2020
As promised, my first book review of the New Year is for "Brides in the Sky" by Cary Holliday, which is a collection of mostly historical fiction short stories and a novella. If you ask me, shorter fiction is harder to write than novels, and you can find out if Holladay succeeded with this format on my new blog, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/01/04/inconvenient-separations/
