Casey Roberts (2 KP) rated Santa Clarita Diet in TV
Jun 3, 2018
Couple goals
Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant are by far one of the best couples on tv. Joel (Olyphant) is a supportive husband to his wife that has turned into the ‘undead’ . They try to keep her need to feed ( on humans) under control with the help of their very judgey teenage daughter and the super funny, quirky boy next door. The first few shows are hard to watch but once you get past the fact that Sheila (Barrymore) is eating people it gets really good.

Fornite Shenanigans
I love watching my boyfriend play this game. Sadly we are on different systems so we can't play together. My son refuses to play fortnite with anyone. So I have only played it a few times. I can't get far enough into a game to figure out how to do anything. I want to play though. So for now I just settle for watching other people play with the hopes that someday I will be able to as well.

Social Deduction at It's Finest
If you are a veteran of social deduction games, Secret Hitler is probably not for you. It is just barely more complicated than The Resistance, and there are games with far more complicated mechanics than it. But Secret Hitler is a great introduction to social deduction. The mechanics can be picked up easily, and it still has enough variety to be interesting.
If you regularly have a group of 6-10 players, I highly recommend this game.

Jul 5, 2018
Could have been a 5 star book I think - It was a bit lacking in some areas - why was it so repetitive sometimes? I get you're a chemist, etc. - I think it'd have been fun to learn more on that as far as making the weapons, etc. However, where the book shines is 100% in the dog arena. That was my favourite part of the whole book, when will there be a dog what's happening OMG :P I'm a pet person what can I say.

Decent character development
Great action
My favourite Thor film so far
I loved the banter and wit here, although if I'm honest the development of Thors character means he understands humans more and more, which means we lose some of the humor in his confusion.
All that aside, it's still a good laugh and action packed enough that you can leave your brain at the door and enjoy another fun Marvel film.

One of the all-time best
I have read a lot of books, but this was by far one of the best ever. This book was nothing short of amazing. It's the kind of book that stays with you - I still revisit it in my mind. I have not stopped telling people about it since I read it... When it first came out!! It's a near-perfect read. And for lovers of nonfiction, this book reads like a remarkable, moving true story.

The first hour of this almost made me want to turn it off, I actually paused it to see how far I was into the movie... Around five minutes later, it seemed to finally start picking up. At first, you think it's a crazy, run of the mill religious cult, but then it's so much more and kind of messed up.
If the first hour had been edited down a little, I would have definitely rated it higher.

Writing
An epic journey worthy of Brooks and Tolkein
This is my favourite one of the DT series so far. It really was an epic journey. I loved the characters and how verything came together. King's sense of humour is there throughout the story; the emotional journey is as epic as the physical one.
I couldn't put this one down, I found myself glued to every word and despearate to know what was going to happen. I can't wait to read the next one.

Not terrible but should have been better
I didn't like the voice in this and that it was meant to be both funny and scary but really failed in doing either. It is more enjoyable to watch then some of the zombie films that are out there but with the cast list it was really disappointing to watch (was expecting far more humour).
An ok film to watch if nothing else on but there are loads more zombie films that are better to watch.
