Leah (: (569 KP) rated Caged (Talented Saga book 2) in Books
Aug 23, 2018
I enjoyed this book and learning more about the talented world.
It is good to get to know the characters more and see them begin to develop. Especially Talia as she stops being a naive girl and begins to question what she has been told. I find her quite a relatable character as she has flaws, particularly her temper.
You also begin to question certain things, however big answers seem to be slow coming.

This movie is fairly gruesome as would be expected but I found quite a few scenes hard to stomach (and I'm no stranger to gore). The opening scene is a preview to the depravity and traumatic contents of the movie. The storyline itself was not awful but the graphic nature and a general lack of answers made it seem more like a gore for the sake of gore movie. Probably wouldnt watch again.

Welcome back neo it's been awhile since the last one but I'm glad its back Reeves and moss haven't lost their touch. Prefer this to the third movie but I would its up there with the second one but the second one is still my favourite of the sequels. there are plenty of good actions scenes hoping for a fifth film sets up plenty of new questions that need answers

A great ending to a great series. More to come soon...
I really enjoyed the ending to this book. I wish I could get what happens after all of this though! The mystery of it was in a good balance to the answers we are given, the plot moved quickly, and it didn't drag on for unnecessary lengths. The characters, as always, were well developed and their relationships were fun to witness. I highly recommend this series.

What the...? You can't just leave it on a big cliffhanger like that!? I need answers! Who offed the biatch? And what the heck happened while you were off in DC? What did Reed do? And what's going on with a certain character?
I am so falling in love with this messed up family. They are slowly turning things around and becoming the single unit they used to be before Maria left them.
Off to get book 3!

Ari Augustine (10 KP) rated The Way of All Flesh in Books

**I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review**
Set in 1847 Edinburgh, THE WAY OF ALL FLESH is a frightfully riveting novel revolving around Raven and Sarah, two women on the hunt for answers to the mysterious murders taking place. Told in such a vivid manner, I love how the story jumps from the page and maintains a fast pace that never seemed to disappoint me.
LOVED it and would recommend.

Lindsay (1717 KP) rated When Love Returns (The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy #3) in Books
Feb 15, 2018
Kim Sawyer is one talented author. If you have not read one of her books you should. Her series "The Zimmerman Restoration" has a wonderful ending. You can check out my reviews to "When Mercy Rains" and "When Grace Sings".
Well, "When Love Returns" starts out a little tension with Suzanne and Alexa. They are celebrating Christmas with all the family. Alexa wants to find her birth mother. When Alexa tells her mom Suzanne. Suzanne is a little unsure and startled by her daughter. Suzanne learns that she will be with Anna Grace for two months. It starts with the unsealing all reasons and the secret that only started it all.
Throughout the book, Suzanne Turns to Paul to talk about Anna Grace and Alexa. What will happen with Suzanne and Paul? I believe it will come full circle. Paul starts wanting to talk to Suzanne and talk about his son Danny. Will the members of the fellowship allow Suzanne back in? To find out all these answers and Alexa answers to her questions, you will need to read "When Love Returns'?

I wanted to read Bird Box after hearing so many rave reviews from BookTube and the blogosphere. From what everyone was saying, I was going to be scared shitless and that was what I was hoping for but it didn’t happen. This book for me has to be my most disappointing read of 2017 so far! The writing wasn’t bad but I feel like this has been overhyped and my expectations were set pretty high. I suppose the reason I was disappointed with this book was because you never really get any answers and the thing that is killing people you never get to picture what it is or why it’s happening. There was one small part of this book that had me scared and it was a paragraph and that was all. I thought the writing was great and I liked most of the characters but for me I needed more answers. I would also put this book as survival/post apocalyptic book rather than a horror.
ClareR (5667 KP) rated A System So Magnificent It Is Blinding in Books
Apr 25, 2023
I have very mixed feelings about this book. I gave up reading it twice, but something kept pulling me back. I still can’t work out what the system is that’s so blinding, but I did like how quirky the whole novel was. It’s surreal, everyone in it has some sort of mental health issue, and is muddling their way through a life that they can make no sense of. Honestly, I couldn’t make sense of their lives either.
There are some really quite beautiful descriptive passages of London and Easter Island, and I found myself googling one of the photographic artists that was mentioned and falling down a rabbit hole for a while.
Should this win the international Booker prize? I have no idea, and I wouldn’t want to be the one that had to choose. Am I glad that I read it? I’m still not absolutely sure on that one. It’s left me with more questions than answers, and I don’t know as there even are any answers!
