Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Marley & Me (2008) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
Grab the tissues, this one’s about to get upsetting. Marley & Me is a film that only animal lovers will understand and if you’re not an animal lover – why not? Released in 2008 to critical and commercial success, Marley & Me follows the life of one crazy Labrador: Marley and his family.
Aniston stars alongside Owen Wilson and gives a powerful and multi-faceted performance that is one of the best in her entire career. Aniston is a well-known animal lover and her emotion in this film is absolutely astounding. She plays the role with an understated brilliance that only she could.

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated Sun and Shade in Books
Jun 18, 2018
Sun and Shade by Mary Lindeen is an early level reader science book. The photographs are beautiful and show the difference between sun and shade. Showing the difference helps young readers understand what they are reading easier. The pictures show the difference between sunshine and shade, moist and dry, the position of the sun in the solar system. High frequency words are used which helps the reader add to their vocabulary.
I would love to have this book in my classroom library.
I give this book 4.5/5 stars.

Disclaimer: I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
I was so excited to read this story just from the cover and blurb. Although it's "middle-grade", I found it immensely enjoyable, and I laughed myself silly quite a bit. Who wouldn't want to read a young boy exploring a zombie cave and trying to find pirate treasure? I definitely wouldn't want to BE said explorer, but Mick's story is awesome, and I couldn't put the book down until I'd finished it (and made notes right along with him as to what I'd need should I ever decide to pursue this adventure...).
5 stars!

I absolutely loved it from beginning to end. Amira is a beautiful character who really comes into her own, and Caeden is the type of man every girl dreams of: a lover, a fighter, a protector. The world of Cashile sounds like such a beautiful place, and the imagery used to describe it makes it seem so real, I can almost touch it.
I'm definitely interested in what happens following the end of this book, and I'm keeping this author on my list to keep up with in the future. =)

Roxanne (13 KP) rated The Harrowing in Books
Nov 14, 2018
The Harrowing is a great Ghost Story, very gripping and entertaining. The beginning was great and the ending was even better, at one point I was holding my breath and I just couldn't put the book down. I was so close to giving this book 5 stars but I was disappointed with some of the filler and unfortunately at times I did lose interest...however this only happened a couple of times. Overall, this was a great book with very likable characters in which I sometimes felt connected to so a very good emotional ride of a story. I highly recommend this book to fans of gripping ghost stories.

an absolute gripping novel with lots of twists and turns
Steve wendell is the detective put in charge of the disappearance of Britany Rodgers. He is determined to find out what happened to her no matter how long it takes.
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel there were so many twists and turns I really did not expect half of what happened or the outcome of the case and not to brag but I'm normally quite good at figuring these kind of things out. There was alot of emotion involved in the story and I felt every bit of it.
Deffinatly a gripping novel fantastically written 4/5 stars

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated A Cajun Werewolf Christmas (Stormy Weather, #6) in Books
Jan 11, 2021
3.5 stars.
This was a nice kind of extended epilogue to book 5, after all the gang appears at the cabin and they decide to spend Christmas there.
It was nice to see more of the interaction between the brothers and cousins and there mates, especially after reading their individual books and growing to like them all. I liked that they're all so close they can tease and taunt each other.
Amanda going into labour (finally) and how everyone reacted made me smile and how they were all trying to outdo each other for a present for the baby.
It was a nice round-up to the series.
