**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
Mary Walker Clark barely knew her father. When he died, he left not only the obvious void every teen would experience, but took with him scores of Indiana Jones-style tales about flying the Hump, a treacherous series of US missions that transported supplies over the Himalayas to China during World War II.

It would take a chance interview with a pilot who had flown with her father in the war to launch a series of extraordinary journeys—into a shrouded past and halfway around the globe to India and China—for Clark to finally come to know the father whose absence had haunted her for decades.

Landing in My Present chronicles the adventures of a daughter who chose to pry open a painful past while enlarging her view of an adventurous father long thought lost.

Dangerous because it's addictive
It's very easy to get lost in this app because it leads you from one interesting thing to another. Next thing you know, your wishlist and shopping basket is packed with useless items. Hence the app being so addictive.

Funny enough, I find the app easier to navigate than the website itself. If only it can utilise Chromecast for Amazon Videos. I'm having to cast from my laptop or the app on the smart TV. So far (touch wood) I've had no technical or security issues with this app.

Awesome Movie
This movie I had high hopes for and it did not disappoint. The acting was superb, nobody overacted or tried to steal the show. Gal Gadot was a perfect casting choice for Wonder Woman.

There was action, comedy and a little bit of romance. It balanced out quite well in this movie. I have watched it three times and each time I come out with something new from it. I hope the other movies in the franchise are just as good.

A short and breezy book about a girl's coming to terms with the death of a mother she never knew and her journey to discover who her mother was. The author has a light touch so while it never gets too maudlin, it nevertheless feels (mostly) realistic. There are many humorous moments along the way, as well as more and more of Ellie's friends and teachers pop up to help her. This was a fast, easy and fun little book that I would recommend for tweens and younger teens.

Received through Amazon Vine.

Fun Party game which is simple to grasp
I bought this game as I needed something to get delivery on amazon... It was the best thing I could have done
This game was exceptionally enjoyable, you play against each other whilst playing against you possible demise as you can die of lack of oxygen at any point. Played it 5 times and have only had a winner once, as the other times we all died from oxygen loss.

I love the ability that Goodreads gives you to not only find books, but the way they catalog what you’ve read to make suggestions on what to read next. The community itself is pretty good at book recommendations as well. (0 more)
It’s gone a bit sideways since Amazon bought it out, in my opinion. There are more ads, and if your kindle is connected they like to monitor you closely because they seem to think of you know an author on any platform, you’re giving false reviews. (0 more)
A great place to find books!

I would go nuts without this app
I have a kindle paperwhite, and I frequently access kindle cloud reader, but this is how I access books when I'm on my phone. Between the three (plus my audible app), there's very little time I can't find a way to sneak a few pages in.

The Amazon Kindle app rarely messes up, keeps all my books nice and tidy, and I like the options to read in different colors rather than just black on white. (I'm a huge fan of white on black.)
