You know - Like 2.5 stars on re-read - I guess perhaps I outgrew KA? I have read (and own) nearly every single book she's written - I'm starting a re-read to get final books in series and know what's going on - Colorado Mountain I recently re-read and enjoyed so not sure what was up with this one - I thought Indy was a bit annoying, though independence is great - I really liked Lee so I guess it has nothing to do with that - I liked the neighbours and I liked the overall exciting storyline (as usual, I mean that's one place the book truly shines) I don't know - I won't continue re-reading this series though and move onto my other ones I need to finish

1984 | Adventure, Drama
This movie was just not it for me. I know that the "gore" level is supposed to be for emphasis and drama but it just is so unrealistic, it's hard to stay with the story. I think the star in this film is Lea Thompson and her beauty radiates off the screen and her character is one I really loved.

I think the plot of the film is interesting, I like that it's set in Colorado as that's where I'm from, but I just couldn't believe that if the Soviets were going to attack the United States that they'd start in a rural Coloradan town. That just seems ridiculous and counterproductive.

Overall, I think I'm really stuck on the fundamentals of the film and that's what made this movie just not great for me.
