Ari Augustine (10 KP) rated Aliens Abroad (Katherine "Kitty" Katt, #16) in Books

May 4, 2020

I have just four words for you: GO READ THIS BOOK.

Katherine Kitty-Katt is a force to reckon with and her determination to save the world is why I enjoyed her character so much. It's a lot like a superhero comic where the character themselves is so invested in their cause that you can't help but be invested in it too. Not to mention, the main character is married woman who makes matrimony sexy - proving that it's not the end of Independence for a woman. If anything, she and Jeff were a power couple and I love how well they worked together while maintaining separate identities.

Im serious, people. Aliens Abroad brought fresh elements to the science-fiction novel and it drew me in like the gravitational pull of a black hole. Its the kind of story that left me anxiously chewing the inside of my cheek as my heart raced and I couldnt (much to my own disdain) read fast enough. From the first page, I was tangled in the story and invested in all the characters. Nothing is more important than that for me, and its why I recommend you launch yourself into this book.

I've had a couple of Mac minis now. The first one lasted a good 7 years and just needed updating really. My current one is about 4 years old now but is still handy. It depends what you are going to use it for mainly. Mine has a 1Tb HD, 8Gb Ram and an i5 processor. I mainly use it to store my old music on iTunes and photos along with editing them on lightroom. It's great for this and can update large files as you edit them.
I rarely use it for anything else though. Most people use phones or tablets for Internet browsing. You can access all the apps on the app store. Just surprised this model doesn't have a disc drive. File transfer to or from a USB drive is extremely quick, 100's of photos in seconds! I always prefer a desktop to a laptop or macbook when it comes to editing. Very user friendly and easy to use, just maybe a little out of date now due to new technology. Great entry level to using a Mac.
