Nina George has done a marvelous job with this book! Her writing is enchanting! It is rich and powerful. The reader feels as if they were part of the port Kedruc company, one of them, living in that small town and spending every day and night

Emotional end to the Trilogy
A magnificent film, a thinking mans action film.
Harrelson and Serkis performances are amazing, it continues to be a shame that Serkis doesn't get any Oscar nods for his work here.
The plot moves along at what feels like a breezy pace, a step up from the previous films which felt a little plodding.

Good use of building tension.

A Fresh Thrill
An exciting horror movie that actually feels fresh. The tension is built well by the director and the score compliments the whole thing well. It's not the best script in Hollywood and is a bit ridiculous in places, but it's a fun thriller that will keep you engaged for its runtime.

Underwhelming
The problem with this is that zombie films have been done to death. Yes it gives another take on the zombie genre and has some unique features, but ultimately it still feels lacking in originality. Paddy Considine and Glenn Close are fantastic actors but they feel a little underused in this. And the ending is just silly. Sadly this is just an average watchable zombie film that is completely forgettable.

Cameron MacElvee hits all the feels with this poignant book. The emotions evoked through the two main characters are genuine. The issues that are addressed are also very important because they are what drive the two women and develop their characters. This is definately not a light beach read but a deep, well thought out novel that will hopefully leave you with lots to think about. Well worth the emotional rollercoaster.

Eighth Grade (2019) will make you remember what it's like to be 14 again - and very glad you're not!
The insightful writing and direction, the virtuoso camerawork and the careful balancing act between comedy and drama is grounded by such an astonishingly authentic and natural performance from Elsie Fisher that it feels like an enormous privilege to be granted this view into Kayla’s inner life...

A wonderfully quirky movie about Love and Ex's in a Musical World. (with Patchouli Stink and ponytails)
have you ever gone through a break up... this movie feels like a breakup in the best possible way. It's funny absurd and yet still has the right amount of heart. Kinda like a love song.... worthy of the time, unlike most of my ex's....
here's an alternate movie poster.

Crystal (148 KP) rated Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in Books
Jun 9, 2018
I feel this books target audience was 11 year olds. Since that is the age we meet Harry it makes sense to start the series that way. A lot of older readers just getting introduced may find it too juvenile. I recommend everyone who feels this way to just get through it. It is worth it and opens the door to the wizarding world. It truly is magical.

Emotional!
Contains spoilers, click to show
I binge watched the tv series and thought it was epic. Really hits you in the feels.
So, naturally I had to read the book as well and compare the two. They’re both amazing, as always the books better but that’s just my opinion.
The story about the tapes and what happened in the run up to the girls suicide really being up a variety of emotions.
