Ruth Angharad (2 KP) rated Instagram in Apps
May 24, 2019
When its good, its very good but when its bad, its horrid.
I have been using instagram for about 7 years now and when it first came out I wasn't too sure if I liked the idea of it ... its basically facebook but with photos which is fine. I use instagram now as one of my most used apps and I enjoy watching peoples stories, connecting with people easily and I can watch the search page for hours sometimes.
However when there are problems with instagram they can be horrendous! It can log you out, freeze your phone completely and there are areas of instagram that are so dark and mentally quite disturbing that it could cause real distress. This would be something I would watch and manage carefully especially with children but it is overall an amazing platform.

Peter Shephard (2822 KP) rated Samsung Galaxy S8 in Tech
May 28, 2019
So far, the S8 and the S8+ are simply the best phones I have ever had. The screen is beautiful, the operation is quick and accurate, the memory capacity is brilliant, and even the battery life, with fairly rigorous use (at full display setting etc), is pretty decent.
I say pretty decent; just by tweaking it slightly, and having slightly lower screen resolution (only noticable if you watch films) or extends it by a good few hours. By turning full power saving on (and even still having Facebook, WhatApp etc with notifications, and with light use) I have taken it camping on a Friday, and had enough battery to navigate my way home on the Monday.
For someone who wants a tablet, and a phone, go for the S8+ and just get that. They are absolutely brilliant, and although they are now a couple of years old, they are still right at the too of the leagues (in my opinion).

Sarah (7800 KP) rated Friend Request in Books
Mar 29, 2018
Just an average thriller
I’d heard good things about this book, but to me it just came across as your average run of the mill thriller.
Unsurprisingly considering the title, it’s based on an ominous and sinister friend request, which is actually one of the better things about the book. It’s very relatable as there’s not many people who don’t have Facebook nowadays, the problem is that I didn’t find Louise to be a very relatable protagonist. Some of her thoughts and actions were just a little too far fetched and didn’t make a lot of sense, even when you took the unfolding events into account.
The book itself was well written and it did at least keep me intrigued for the most part, but for me it was really let down by the ending. I was expecting more a shocking twist, but instead it just predictable and a bit dull. If it wasn’t for the ending, I may have rated it a little higher.

Goodreads
I love Goodreads. I can keep track of what I've read, find books I want to read, meet new people and join groups, talk to authors, even set yourself a reading challenge for the year. Love that you can review your books, comment other people's reviews, add your Facebook friends and find out what they are reading too! I've found so many new books because of Goodreads. Can even let Goodreads into your kindle account and it will add what books you have bought or got samples of so you can add them into your "To Read" list.
Lottie disney bookworm (1056 KP) rated Wonderland: Alice in Poetry in Books
Nov 27, 2019
Can anybody truly say,
Had you never come our way,
Alice, where we'd be today?
If you love Alice and Wonderland then this is the book for you. Some poems you will know, such as the iconic 'The Walrus and the Carpenter' but there are also some new pieces, inspired by the classic tale, waiting to be discovered.
This collections comprises of 53 poems which was much larger than I was expecting. Obviously, OBVIOUSLY a lot of these are penned by Lewis Carroll: it would be sacrilegious otherwise. However, I was impressed by the inclusion of modern poets in order to appeal to the younger reader: even Facebook gets a mention!
The illustrations by Sir John Tenniel are perfect and I loved the italic additions throughout the book which educate the reader as to the inspiration behind the verses.
An anthology of fantasy; this collection is perfect for our busy lives when we need a quick five minutes of escapism.
