I wish they would bring it back
Without a doubt one of my most favorite shows to hit television. The actors are great and I still look for them in other shows and movies. This show had some good twists, but never jumped the shark. The romance between Josh and Donna took forever to come to fruition, but I am glad that it did.
  
A new series from a favorite author left me a little cold. I didn't find it nearly as funny as his old books, and the mystery was weak. What's funny about this is the series centers around the owner of a comedy movie theater. Owner Elliot Freed investigates when a man is poisoned by his pop corn during the nightly double feature.

Trixie isn't looking for a mystery when she and her friends head to Cobbett's Island. However, their first night there, they find a letter that suggests there is a treasure nearby. With their new friend Peter, can they find it? This is my second favorite book in the series. The characters are wonderful and the plot is very well done.

I absolutely loved getting to hear Della's story. She was one of my favorite characters in the original series, so it was fun getting to see what she goes theough. I really liked this story. Not only was the storyline pretty fresh, I was also very happy with the introduction of the newer characters. Vampire back stories are always pretty fun as well. If you have read the Shadow Falls series, I definitely recommend picking this one up as well.

While I enjoyed this comic, it was not as good as the others I have read recently. This one focuses more on the fact that these villains are cruel with not much reasoning behind their actions. They torment the staff because it is fun and they get off on it.

The story itself was weak to me, but it was still entertaining for what it was.

Like I said, it was not my favorite, so I don't have much to say about it.

I’m usually a bit hesitant to stray from my favorite authors and this time was no different. However, I’m soo glad I did! You want action, mystery, romance, betrayal? It’s all here. The best part is that it’s all here without the usual angsty cliches normally found in books that are listed as YA. I’m not going to recap the book, you can read the cover yourself. Read the book, read the series, you won’t regret it!!

This is one of my favorite apps. Its a great way to keep track of books you've read, want to read, currently reading. The annual reading challenge lets you keep track of the books you've read year over year and lets you set a personal goal. I literally can't say enough about how great this app is.

Okay, I really wanted to love this book. It combines one of my favorite books (World War Z) and Vampires! Unfortunately, this book felt way too similar to World War Z that I couldn't help but compare it to Max Brooks' novel. The stories are mingled together and it felt that at times the storylines jumped around. I was never really invested in the characters and many of the short stories were flat.

Ultimately, I wasn't too disappointed, but I wasn't impressed either.
