Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated Body on the Bayou (Cajun Country Mystery, #2) in Books

Feb 21, 2018

As if being railroaded into playing wedding planner / mail of honor for her co-worker Vanessa isnt enough to worry about, Maggie also gets volunteered to put the bride-to-bes cousin up at her familys B&B. This seems ok at first, but before long Ginger starts showing her true colors, and someone decides to do her in just days before the wedding is scheduled to take place. After finding Gingers dead body, Maggie adds finding a murderer to her ever-growing to-do list.

This was a fun mystery with a great setting - I'll be watching for the next in the series.

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated Where Is My Coat? Farm Animals in Books

Jun 18, 2018

Where Is My Coat? Farm Animals by Anita Bijsterbosch is a cute board book for very young children who like to play fun and simple guessing games with pictures of cozy-colored animals at play. It is a a pleasant and easy read.

Animal shapes are shown and you are asked what they are. It is very interactive. Kids will need to use their visual skills to figure out what type of animal is depicted. The illustrations are super cute and the colors draw you in. This is a good book to use for teaching animals to small children.

I received this ARC from Clavis Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

AT (1676 KP) rated Ready Player One (2018) in Movies

I liked the book better. (Haha, Andy Kubica). However, I really did like the movie, as well, for completely different reasons. I loved the book on its own, and always will. The movie, though, was such a fun treat to watch! I wasn't sure how it would go, but it definitely looked like a video game with all of the cool colors and graphics, and you can't beat the music! I wasn't sure that I'd like how they did Art3mis, but I really did. The movie character was cute and smart. The stacks were exactly as I'd pictured, so that was also fun to see. It's definitely worth watching in my opinion! It's a great 1.5 hr ride!
