Kristin (149 KP) rated Jumper Meets Bouncy in Books

Dec 7, 2018

Disclaimer: I received an e-copy in exchange for an honest review.

Jumper has found himself away from his owner/best friend, Tony, but he's being taken care of by Emily, Tony's friend. The two kids get together with their families and go multiple places, and Jumper gets to go along for the ride. In the process, he meets Bouncy, Emily's red ball. The two seem to hit it off nicely, and they share their many adventures together.

This series is just so cute, and I think it would make a great children's show. I actually enjoy the stories, even though I'm 25 and have no children of my own, so I think it would be something parents and children could enjoy together. I look forward to being able to read this books to my children someday. =)

CKD (37 KP) rated Home Front in Books

Dec 7, 2018

This book was great! I won it through the Goodreads pre-release program and received it in the mail just a few days prior to its release to the public. The story focuses on Jolene, her family and her friendship with Tami and her family. Jolene and Tami are helicopter pilots in the Guard, raising their families on the West Coast and neighbors. Jolene's husband is an attorney and they have two daughters. Jolene's husband does not approve of the war and thinks it's something that is happening "over there" and not something that affects us here in America. Until Jolene and Tami get deployed and he has to reconfigure his entire life to be a single parent while Jolene is gone. This is a wonderful story that is beautifully told and I highly recommend it.

No good Nick is about this 13 year old girl who shows up at a families house claiming to be a distant relative, but really she is there to con them.
As i watched this show i at first thought Nick was just a spoilt brat brought up by evil foster parents. However, as the episodes went on you realise she isn't really a bad guy, she's just trying to protect her dad and you also realise why in particular she chose the thompson family and at one point i even disliked the family because of her reason. The show had a lot of ups and downs, some laughter and some emotional scenes. I really enjoyed it and gutted it wasn't carried on as it ended on a cliffhanger.

Book Rating

This book is definitely not for younger readers!! (Not that it should be, content-wise, but you never know, so I want to give a warning.) There are detailed sex scenes in this novel.

Docile was an interesting novel. I wasn't sure what to expect as I read it. Luckily, there was no strange twist at the end that ruined it. It followed the main story all the way through. It gave an interesting view of a medically futuristic program to help families pay off their debt. The program isn't without fault, and I, personally, wouldn't want to be a part of it, but in the story, many had no other choice. (Debtors' prison was the alternative.) It was a unique, yet realistic situation to read about. Money speaks loudly, and it definitely screams in this novel.
