Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated The Summer I Wasn't Me in Books
Jan 12, 2018
This book reminded me, in the beginning at least, of the movie But I'm A Cheerleader. Just this book wasn't a comedy. After Lexi's dad dies her mom finds out she is gay and sends her to a de gayifying program. Lexi goes along hoping not to lose her mom even if she has to lose herself.
This book made me mad. I enjoyed it but the fact that this REALLY does happen to kids is horrible. The growth we see Lexi have throughout the book is incredible. Unfortunately she has to go through so much emotional pain and self hating to get there.
I would recommend this book not only to any LGBTQ person but alsothose family that may not be so accepting.

"If I told you who did it you wouldn't believe it." The book was a definite page turner for me. At about 30% in, I wanted to find out how it was going to end. There were a few twists and turns along the way, but the outcome was inevitable. This was the second Baldacci book I had read. I am a big fan of James Patterson and I must say that this book was better than any Patterson book I have read in a long time. I would love to see this made into a movie...it would definitely be a hit. This book has everything you need. Action, drama, multiple murders, a touch of romance, and a bit of rough sex. What else could you ask for? I would recommend this to anyone who likes controversy and crime. P.S. Just found out, this is a movie!

I have not had a chance to watch the movie yet, which is on my short to-watch list. I wanted to read the manga first. However, without looking at the film's release date, I'm guessing that the movie maybe came out first? I don't know. I still definitely am planning on watching the movie, but volume 1 of the manga didn't do it for me. The first 3/4 seemed choppy and very confusing at times. It didn't explain what was going on very well. I know the basis of the movie, which is the only reason I read the whole volume. It was less confusing toward the very end, so I'll move on to the next book. But, I'm guessing the movie is a million times better.
Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters: Bk. 2 in Books
Jan 15, 2018
I am hooked on the Percy Jackson series. It reminds me of Harry Potter, but with a bit more of an academic edge to it. I didn't like the 2nd book as much as the 1st, but it was still an entertaining read. I'm going to go start the 3rd one right now. BTW, I saw the movie for Book 1...did NOT like it at all. The book was MUCH better!!!!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2099 KP) rated How to Train Your Dragon: Book 1 in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III has to train a baby dragon to obey his commands in order to avoid being cast out of his Viking tribe. But can he do it? I enjoyed the movie, so I was looking forward to the book. Unfortunately, I just found it average with underdeveloped characters. And Toothless, the dragon, was especially annoying.
