Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2355 KP) rated The Mystery of the Missing Heiress (Trixie Belden, #16) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
This kid's mystery finds Trixie Belden trying to help a young woman with amnesia find out who she really is. This is the first time I've reread a book in this favorite series in years. I loved spending time with the characters, but I have always found this plot a little weak.

Paranormal is usually not my favorite. I do enjoy it but I must be in the mood for it. This book was so well written that I flew through it. The character of Ryn was very well developed. The theme seemed to be good versus evil with some nasty paranormal politics going on. I put this in the same category as American Gods but much less crass and gritty but in a good way.

One of my favorite books of all time
There are really no words to describe this book. It is everything you could want in a book and more. The universe is so incredibly imaginative and every single thing that has been developed in this world is so well thought out and created. The story has its laughs and it’s intense moments. The narrator is perfect and it’s just everything you want in a story.

I would give it a solid 20/10 if possible
Contains spoilers, click to show
After receiving a signed copy of this as a gift, I read throughout it without the knowledge it would become my favorite STP novel of all time. I don't know why it struck a chord, but Mau is amazing and the development of the story is so strong that it caused one of those 'Just one more' chapter nights to finish.

No, this film is not a masterpiece in film-making. But, it's one of my favorite movies.
First, the first scenes of this film where Larry (Andrew McCarthy) brushes off the mugger in Central Park, since makes me smile.
The story-line is very 1980s, fraud/embezzlement in a corporate atmosphere. The physical comedy by Terry Kiser was exactly what was needed. Who thought toting a dead body around could be so amusing?

One of my favorite shows growing up, and it's one I still love to watch on a regular basis. The fact that TBS airs reruns all the time makes me so happy, as does the whole season being on Netflix for whenever I could use a pick-me-up and a moment to just chill! "Friends" is always good for a laugh, a cry, and all-around fantastic half hour of television.

The world's favorite nerd
I wasn't sure about this show at first, I'll admit. When I first started watching, I thought "great another spy show. Like we don't have enough of those." But Chuck won me over with his awkward nerdy style, that somehow won over the ladies and helped him save the world a time or two. Chuck made nerds cool again.

This is a different take on vampires in modern day. This book was published when vampire novels/movies were the big thing. It was more about the family, with vampirism thrown in. I liked the way the chapters were broken up, and the story was great.
This book ended my 3 book Matt Haig reading streak, and I think this was my favorite of the three. I definitely can recommend this one.

Didn't hold my attention
I was really liking forward to this new adaptation of a classic story. Unfortunately it just wasn't very good. The beginning was interesting, but it didn't hold my attention for long. I think the main problem with this movie is that it lacked any form of character development. The action was great, but a movie needs more than that. Despite my high hopes the Disney version is still my favorite.
