Hurray! I finally get to chime in on a book for the book club! Full time work and school is putting such a dampener on my social life!

I remember being suitably impressed with this one when we reviewed it for the podcast last year. Its a fun read, a relatively quick read, and combines the best elements of scary Who to make it the perfect Halloween offering. Enjoy everyone!

Some interesting ideas that didn't gel, a villain who isn't, more supernatural elements without science explanations than should ever appear in Who, and a substandard set of additional characters add up to a poor outing from Big Finish here. Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred are great as usual, but thats about as far as I can go in this confusing story set in the land down under. Or is it?

Transcripted‘s unexpected blend of shoot-em-ups and Zuma-style match three gameplay makes for one of the most refreshing and addictive experiences of the year, with the perfect mix of casual simplicity and hardcore depth.

I will admit that I had no idea what I was reading when I started this book. I liked the cover and thought to check it out. So glad that I did. The story was spectacular and the elements coming together throughout made the story seem cohesive. The main character Ambry grows so much during the story! A definate read if you are into magic, romance, and adventure
  
Greg Rich finds himself sucked back through time to early 1600's Paris where he must unite teenage musketeers to save his parents. A kids book that combines elements of fantasy with historical fiction, I enjoyed it, although I did find the set up a bit too long.

Honestlys not sure how I feel about this one. There were glaring elements I hated (the narrating attitude about women and race especially), but things that I think are worth looking at like child “marriage” in the US and calling a girl who’d been raped repeatedly as a pre teen a “whore.” It’s a solid and deserved slap in the face for anyone inclined to idealize the period.

The setting is unique
Perfection
Within the first two hours, I was hooked. The game has Assassin's Creed gameplay, but managed to make it feel way more fluid. The enemies are varied and interesting to fight.

The game could definitely use heavier RPG elements, but what already exists is compelling.

You will not find more entertainment for anywhere close to this game's price.

Brilliant 3riller
This could of gone so many ways, people had all kinds of expectations but in my view it delivered, there were thought provoking parts of the story and the absolute put down of the modern day super hero in a world that is super obsessed was just right.
Casting was perfect and the intense suspense elements were done in ture creepy junpy MNS fasion.

Annabelle: Comes home is the third instellment in the annabelle franchise.

Annabelle- was okay

Annabelle creation- was really good

Annabelle comes home- was really good as well.

The jump scaries, the psychological element, the story and overall the annabelle triolgy is really scary, has good jump scaries and the psychological elements are excellent.

A must see horror film and a must see horror triolgy.
