Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Just Jorie in Books
Jun 6, 2018
Ok, this is the first audio book I have listened to for pleasure. I loved the story and the characters were amazing. That is what I am basing my review on. The narrator was good as well just I don't like to listen to books, reminds me too much of work. That said the quirkiness of the character and the banter really makes this story. I really did laugh out quite a bit. I do believe I prefer the voices in my own head though. So, whichever you prefer listen or read pick this book up. It is worth it.

Amazing film
Don't be put off thinking this is just another cheesey chick flick, that would be an unjust insult. This is a very well made film with a great story of true love standing the test of time. The acting, score, cinematography and the 40's theme costumes and sets really show this is a very well produced film. It might be obvious from early on what is going to happen but it doesn't stop the journey being any less fun. If you liked the romance side of Titanic and Pearl Harbour you will like this a lot.

Pacing
After reading the amazing reviews this movie was getting, I had to see this. Sadly, I was left checking my watch, waiting for something to happen. Half this movie could have been cut and it wouldn't affect the pacing or the plot. There is a spooky atmosphere towards the end but not enough to chill me. This is the third movie but A24 studios I've seen and all suffer from the same fault. The only positive point i can make is the set design - comparing it/making it look like the miniatures that frequent the movie
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Last Man Standing (Black Ops Inc., #7) in Books
Jul 12, 2018
This was such a great novel. I am truly devastated that this is the last novel in the series. The characters in these novels are inspiring and devastatingly lovable.
Cindy Gerard truly makes you feel emotions for each of her characters. Last Man Standing was yet another amazing novel that made me laugh, cry, and want to throw the book at points.
I do wish that more of the BOI's were in this novel but I felt like it wrapped up very nicely. Now I have to find another series that will fulfill my want for attractive Military men. Hmph!

Her Voice is Great
When I heard Taylor was making a new album I was awestruck! I bought her cd as soon as it came to my stores. I got home put the cd in my laptop and listened to the cd on replay, that's how good it was! Coming up soon I'll be going to her concert, my first concert ever. In an overall view I have my favorites and my not so favorites! All the songs are good but the radio can seriously ruin anything. I recommend everyone to listen to this! At least give it a chance!
ashezbookz (32 KP) rated Gemina: The Illuminae Files: Book 2 in Books
Jul 5, 2018
I love this series so much - I think toward the end of this book I got a bit emotional - like, this one was perhaps even better than Illuminae and it was amazing and sad and great all in one - I cant wait to read obsidio now .. I heard it gets even more emotional. I loved the drawings in this one - like they were on point, I know she does her journals and it was cool to see the pages - kind of want to rip some out and hang them on my wall.. book abuse for sure

Can get very heated
A great classic game about building settlements and roads. The game always leaves you guessing on what the others are trying to do, and with different people can be very varied. It is amazing with the seafarers expansion, which balances the game a bit more especially in cases where players get really lucky in the beginning and end up with a monopoly of a resource. Bargaining and trading is key in this game and can cause a few funny exchanges,
BobbiesDustyPages (1259 KP) rated True Romance (1993) in Movies
Aug 11, 2018
A messed up kind of love story but a love story none the less.
True Romance is one of those movies that was really sad that I didn't know about it sooner especially since I grew up on Tarantino movies. From start to finish it really is just a damn good movie with a surprisingly good love story mixed in with all the blood and drugs. There's a hell of a lot of action a really good story amazing characters and just the over-the-top violence that you come to expect from these type of movies.
Ivana A. | Diary of Difference (1171 KP) rated Sexual Decisions: The Ultimate Teen Guide in Books
Aug 21, 2018
Thank you Kris for sending me over this amazing book.
This is for everyone that has teens in their families. This is for every teen, and for every adult. There have been so many things that I found out about this book, that I didn't know before.
Very helpful into forming a nice adult from a child, and very open-minded.
I loved this book, and I believe that every teen should read it, so they can become more confident about themselves, and start to believe in themselves, and make decisions about their body on their own.

Sex scenes
This tv show keeps you very intertained. It throws your emotions all over the place from being extremely happy to mad or sad in an instant. You wont want to stop watching. It is a mixture of old values being brought forth and conformity. I do not recommend people who have PTSD with rape involved because it might trigger something. The Sex scenes don't show much as well as very little nudity. Overall I do recommend this tv show.
