BookwormMama14 (18 KP) rated The Night Before Christmas in Books
Jan 2, 2019
With Christmas fast approaching I realised that we don't own a copy of The Night Before Christmas. Therefore I began my hunt for a copy that my three year old would enjoy. I wanted something with vivid color and interaction. The pages are very busy and there is something new to see each time we open the pages. The traditional poem has always been one of my favorites. The illustrations add life to the words. My son loves it and keeps asking to "Read Santa!" and he goes around saying "Dash away! Dash away!" If you too are on the hunt for The Night Before Christmas, I recommend this copy. Eventually I would like a classic hard copy of this poem to own, but this year I am settling for a digital copy of this version that I found through our local library. May your season be filled with Christmas cheer!

Spyz, forgetfulnes, and.... What was I saying again?
This is one of my favorite books of all time. The beginning is very slow and methodical and creates a feeling of unease, and as the story progresses you learn more about character and what's going on almost as slowly as the protagonist Jason Bourne does. About half way through though there comes a point where we know more than he does and it increases the feeling of unease. As the story develops the pace slowly increases until you are reading as fast as you can trying to see what is going to happen or go wrong again. By the end you are sweaty and out of breathe and the reveal in the last chapter and even the last few lines is beautiful. Again I love this book.

Rob zombie makes micheal myers into a 2 hour film
Contains spoilers, click to show
Yes if you didnt know that rob zombie directed a halllowen film, well this is it.
Rob Zombie's remake of halloween takes alot of risks. But do their pay off no their dont.
Rob focus on younger micheal for a good hour and thats a bit to longer, and than the last hour is a fast paste copy and paste of the oringal film.
So many swears in this film. Their is like over 100 swears. 20 in the first 20 minutes.
Im not sure why rob zombie directed halloween, it was a intrest choice. Also rob put his wife in the film.
Halloween, could of been more, but with its long run time, a heavy focus on micheal myers childhood and a rush copy and paste of the oringal. Halloween fails as a remake.

Merissa (13096 KP) rated Desire's Destiny (The Vespian Way #1) in Books
Nov 20, 2019
DESIRE'S DESTINY is the first book in The Vespian Way series, and we are introduced to a world very different from Earth. They have their own customs and traditions, just like Earth does. Heather is assigned to the Ambassador as his bodyguard, but that assignment quickly makes her something else.
This is a very fast-paced story, with plenty of steamy scenes. At times I actually felt as though this detracted a little from the main story, but I could see where the author was going with it.
There are still questions left unanswered but this is only book one, so I'm hoping for answers to at least some of my questions in book two.
An intricate and twisted Sci-Fi Erotic Romance with plenty of stories and characters yet to learn about. If you're looking for something to get you hot under the collar, then I can definitely recommend this.

I am legend, I am retribution
Contains spoilers, click to show
Dead to rights retribution is a reboot of the dead to rights franchise, and it follows Jack Slate, an over muscled, angry, dark brooding cop ( basically RE5's Chris Redfield) & his canine partner Shadow.
Story see's Jack hunting down a newly formed government anti crime force called the GCU, who in return, flip Jack's entire life upside down with shock twists and betrayals.
Luckily jack isn't alone as partner Shadow is their to help take down enemies on command & can retrieve weapons for you too (which really helps).
The games dark tone and pace work well together, Shadow is a playable character, having his own occasional mini mission using both stealth and speed, slow motion upon head shot kills & fast paced shooting action with some fun dialogue thrown in make this a pretty enjoyable Game.

I received this as part of a smashbomb competition!
The game has 5 different mini games which are all very fun. Each card has several different characters or objects on it and these have to be matched with various paired cards.
The game is very easy to pick up with simple instructions for all the mini games. It would suit all types of people/family members even those without prior Harry Potter knowledge. The different icons are depicted within the instructions with names.
We spent quite some time playing this game eventhough each game is fairly short. Its addictive and much harder than the description sounds.
Sometimes you have the flow of things and blast through several pairs. Other times you are stumped and cant pick out any difference between the cards.
