Alison Pink (7 KP) rated The Nightingale in Books
Jan 15, 2018
Wow! Just wow! This book was beautifully written. It is so full of heartbreak & evil but in the end the fact that love is what remained makes it beautiful. It felt so real, I don't doubt that there are women out there that did what Vianne & Isabelle did. They are 2 brave sisters who risk everything to help make the world a better place despite being surrounded by all the horrors of WWII. It has been a long time since I cried like I did at the end of a book. I'd have to stop reading several times in the last few chapters because I was so moved. What a beautiful story!

Beautiful location (2 more)
Good Sfx
The Cgi for the Shark was great
A decent Shark thriller
A good film with a battle of wits and survival. The Beach location is beautiful, shot at Lord Howe Island off the coast of Australia, and the Sfx were good in most scenes. I was impressed with the Cgi for the Shark, it looked more realistic than many other Shark films over the past 20 years. It is one big mean Shark, although some of the action scenes are a bit over the top. Overall a good film for a simple premise. On the DVD you get extras on Shark attacks, the location for the Beach scenes, and how they designed the Shark.

Quilted Devotions: 24 Biblical blocks by Lisa Cogar
Genre: craft, quilting, art
Rating: 5
Lisa Cogar has assembled 24 beautiful quilt blocks, each representing parts of the Bible. Some are traditional and have been used over the years like Jacob’s Ladder, and others were created by Cogar such as Joseph’s Coat, Hosanna, and Crown of Thorns. Each block has a Bible verse with it. There is a world of possibilities—and stories—to explore within the pages.
This is an awesome quilting book. It’s designed for intermediate to experienced quilters. The patterns and graphs are very easy to follow, and the blocks are beautiful and inspiring.
Recommendation: Intermediate to experienced quilters.

Beautiful love story
Gorgeous scenery
Beautiful writing
This is by far one of my favorite films of all time. A stunning and heart warming time travel love story. Where a man falls in love with a woman that can only be found in another time. Played by Christopher Reeve(Superman) and Jane Seymour, the main characters love story is not to be missed. I've actually visited the place where this movie was filmed. It took my breath away, I felt like I was part of the film when I was there. My grandmother introduced me to this movie, and I will definetely be introducing this to my future grandchildren

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated A Very Blessed Christmas Coloring Book in Books
Jun 14, 2018
A Very Blessed Christmas Coloring Book by Robin Mead brings scripture into coloring, while allowing me to color in a relaxed quite moment.
The images are a mix of secular and religious, all related to the Christmas season. There are some beautiful Biblical quotes related to the season too, surrounded by artwork to color.
This book has a section for Christmas crafts such as cutouts to make ornaments, bookmarks or even gift tags. I love that this coloring book is unique and is perfect for everyone. It is inspirational, filled with beautiful pictures of angels, snowflakes, trees, stocking, nativity and so much more.
I received this book from FaithWords via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Clear rulebook
Quick reference card for each phase
Easy to moderate difficulty to learn
Best for 4 players

Beautiful game with excellent gameplay
If you've played and liked another CMON game, Blood Rage, you'll love this game! The object of the game is to win with the most points, but the path to claim that victory is completely up to the player. Make alliances and collect favor from the gods, wield your might in battle for a region at the end of each season, or spend your power wisely to collect rewards and boost your score. Always a favorite at game day!

One of the definitive platformers. (3 more)
Animation and art is beautiful.
Catalogue of different levels is incredible
The soundtrack and sound design is on another level.
Exceptional platforming fun!
In early 2018, my love for the gaming genre was rediscovered with Hollow Knight. I've been spoilt with narrative marvels and open world paradises, that when I began Rayman Legends, I also rediscovered my childhood.
Everything about Rayman Legends is fun. From the bonkers and beautiful worlds that are so detailed and masterfully crafted, to the meticulously designed levels, which sometimes bounce along to popular songs, this game is the real deal. It deserves to be mentioned with the likes of Super Mario Bros. There, I said it.
