Elli H Burton (1288 KP) rated Gavin & Stacey in TV

Down to earth. (1 more)
Funny, witty and clever.
A classic
Okay before I added my rating it was at 6.7 💣... I'm actually quite surprised at this as I have found it to be an all rounder. It has everything a sitcom should have. The writing is fantastic (Thank you Ruth Jones and James Corden) the acting is excellently done (you can get the odd hero that over acts in a lovely simple sitcom like this - luckily this isn't the case with G&S), the casting is fantastic and I love the locations etc.. That sounds random but the homes they are in feel like the characters homes, the hometowns suit the actors that have been cast as well. In some sitcoms you can think of another actor or actress that could have played the part better etc.. but in this, the parts were perfectly cast.
There's nothing unrealistic about it, it feels real, something that could be happening to someone down the road from you. The meeting over the phone rings true with me as I met my husband through a mutual friend on xbox!!! (We have now been together 7 years and have a beautiful daughter)
So yeah, I'd recommend if you like a classic, British heartwarming comedy.

Bethr1986 (305 KP) rated Homicide Hérault (Hardy Durkin Travel Mystery #6) in Books
Jan 26, 2023
Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
Hardy Durkin is on a bicycle tour around France with his group. As they are following a delightful path a couple of the group decide to have a little splash in the water so one of the group goes behind a rock to change and ends up getting the fright of her life, 2 skeletons. Hardy contacts his friends who are in the know and discover a lot more!
I have enjoyed this story it is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone. There is a lot of good information which is very interesting to read. I had an issue with one of Bluette's previously and was a bit apprehensive as I didn't want to upset her if I didn't like the story or style of writing, but there were no issues at all with that she has done a fantastic job and made it legible and exciting. Well done, Bluette, a fantastic job.

Merissa (13440 KP) rated The Old Dragon’s Head in Books
Sep 23, 2022
A fantastic escape to historical China, where the supernatural is natural.
THE OLD DRAGON'S HEAD takes you back in time to the Great Wall of China and you become immersed with the main characters and their search for the truth and justice. Supernatural is natural for those with yin-yang eyes, and the Heavens rule over everything, including day-to-day duties. Karma is not an unknown entity, but something to be respected and even feared.
Told mainly from Bolin, Feng, and Luli's perspectives, you get a well-rounded story that deals with treachery, betrayal, and murder. Our heroes are fallible and things definitely don't go their way all the time.
I must say, I agreed with Luli completely at the end, and it came as a surprise as Abbott Dong had been a level-headed character up to that point.
This was very well-written, with a love of ancient China showing through. The story is intricate and in-depth, whilst being easy to read. A fantastic escape and definitely recommended by me.

Mothergamer (1601 KP) rated Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch in Video Games
Sep 26, 2017
Fantastic fantasy role playing game
I love this game so much and I've played it twice. The story is quite good and the game play is a lot of fun. The artwork of the game is beautiful and the music for it is great. There are tons of side quests to do along with the main story and just exploring is a lot of fun. It's a wonderful game that is enjoyable to play.

Book Divas (227 KP) rated Twisted Tales: A Paranormal Anthology in Books
Dec 12, 2017
I received a free ebook copy in exchange for an honest review. I made no guarantee of a favorable review.
If you are looking for some good stories written by some amazingly talented authors then look no further. Each story has a different element of paranormal surprise that keeps you on the edge of your seat on this fantastic roller coaster of a ride. All the stories contained within this anthology are well written with a steady pace and strong characters. You will definitely find yourself ensnared within the magical web that all the authors have weaved.

I remember reading this as a teenager and it was my first dip into the horror genre and from then until now, I was hooked. There are not many books that give me the creeps but I remember this book as it resulted in me having a fear of rats which continues to this day! No other book has had such a lasting impression on me and I won't ever read it again as I don't want to affect the memories I have of this book being fantastic and the beginnings of my love for horror.

Story
Breath taking special effects
Great start to a new start!
I know, I know your probably sitting thier like wait how can the story be bad and good? The story is fresh and does not follow the orginal
Concepts of the older King Kong movies. With the direction the franchise appears to be taking, it was a perfect start, however i found the enemys to be a bit confusing and would have liked to have seen a bit more of a story develope with them. The acting was in my opinin fantastic a great alround cast for the film.

FANTASTIC
I will admit that I was forced to watch this by one of my more girly friends. I have never watched the original as not a big fan of cartoons and as a child I watched mostly action and adventure films not princesses.
I really enjoyed it and was very surprised it was as good as it was. My only downfall (if you can call it that) is I wouldn't think it was suitable for my 4 year old as some of the scenes can be a little frightening.
Would definitely recommend this to anyone!
