Rolling Stone's 381st greatest album of all time
The album that never was, but then it was. Not a great collection of songs here, but the superb "Heroes and Villains" (which embarrassingly I only know from the Fantastic Mr Fox film) steals the show and brings this up to being a worthwhile listen. What remains is a little hit or miss (mainly miss).

Elizabeth Moss
Brilliant support cast
A slow burner
A fantastic but disturbing story about a small town in New Zealand, following Robin Griffin as she returns home to visit her ill mother but is pulled onto a case when a 12-year-old girl is found (alive) in a lake. There are plenty of twists and turns throughout and there's an intensity that's slowly bubbling away.
At times it does get a bit slow and at the beginning it can be hard to get into, but the brilliant cast of actors - led by the absolutely fantastic Elizabeth Moss - keep it going and turn it into something brilliant. Some of the characters are disturbing but believable and it winds up to an eventful finale.

Not my favorite marvel movie but not my least favorite.
I went into this movie with lowered expectations because of the critic reviews. And I was plesently suprised by it. It's a fun movie with a strong female lead. The CGI is grwat and about 90% of the acting is fantastic. The beginning of the movie before they get to earth is a bit slow and boring, but after that it picks up and is very enjoyable.
Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Heart of a Bad Boy (Destiny #3) in Books
May 7, 2019
this is the third book in the series and what a fantastic read. this author is becoming one of my favourites as the stories just keep getting better and better the more you read. these book can be read as stand alones or part of the series, id say read them all just because they are really good. this author has a fab way of writing that just sucks you in and keeps a hold of you till the last page. the author always writes such good epilogues, you can help but be sad when the books have finished. the characters are fantastic and very well written and the hot steamy scenes definitely set the pages alight. I cant wait to read more from this author in the future.

Stan Lee tribute (3 more)
Brie Larson as Captain Marvel
Young Nick Fury
GOOSE
Forget what the review bombers say. This movie was fantastic, an excellent and well planned out entry to the MCU. First off, excellent tribute to Stan Lee at the beginning, well done. Brie Larson was absolutely stunning as Carol Danvers, managing to capture and show the brooding and serious side of Captain Marvel, as well as the witty and humourous side to her. I loved young Nick Fury way more than I do the present day Nick Fury. Ben Menhdolsen, Jude Law, and Annette Bening were absolutely fantastic as their characters. The real star of the show though: GOOSE THE CAT. OH MY WORD, GOOSE. STOLE EVERY SCENE HE WAS IN. The Agents of SHIELD fan in me wanted more Coulson, but I was okay with his screentime.

Fantastic!
This is by far 1 of the best books I've read, it is a book I recommended to everyone especially as it's not 'normally' to my taste.
The style in which it it's written is also brilliant not many writers can pull it off especially at this level!
You will feel that you really know the characters by the end.
A gripping read!

Fantastic Game
The story is great and the game play is excellent. There are a lot of great side quests to go with the main quests. There are some cool mini game events also. Daily quests are included as well and offer good rewards like legendary weapons or rare mounts. Definitely worth playing.

This is a fantastic app for book readers. I love being able open Goodreads when i am at the library and find out what books I have on my to read list. I sometimes have an issue where if i mark a book at read without marking at currently reading first then it doesn't register as read, therefore it won't add to my total of books read.
