I found this book quite compelling at times, but wasn't that impressed with the story overall. The book centers on a family and the ramifications they face when the daughter, Angela, becomes mentally ill. Some of the passages are quite interesting, but overall, the story seemed flat.

This was a DNF at 61% For some reason I just didn't enjoy it. I actually found this book boring. Some will find this book a great read, I'd class it as a traditional romance but it just didn't have enough story in it for me.

A few nice designs, not to everyones taste. Bright, bold colours are used in the pictures, clear instructions to make items for the modern home but I have to say this is not my cup of tea and it wouldn't be found with my sewing books

A nice enough book with 15 large basic quilts to make with great instructions for calculating fabric quanties. If your a beginner like me to quilting you'll find this book ideal. Only thing I didn't like was some of the pictures, as I found them too dark.

I was using Google Maps for work, but didn't realize I was speeding before the sheriff was pulling me over. That was when I switched and found few circumstances where the app was poorly informed.

Considering the criticism this got upon release I expected this to be truly awful. For sure it is a no brainer, action flick overloaded with SFX but I found it quite enjoyable with some cool action scenes. Put your brain on neutral and just enjoy the entertainment!

This is a very unique and intriguing novel. I found myself immersed into this novel. I wanted to hear the stories and understand the reasons behind the actions. This novel felt very realistic.

This is not my normal novel. I'm glad that I picked this novel up.

This was a quick fast paced read. I really enjoyed this book. I found myself hooked and wanting more and more. The characters are interesting and I was fascinated with the world that Erica Stevens created. I'm going to have to continue on in this series.

I found this book to be absolutely thrilling. Alex's endeavors to do good were well portrayed. I also got some Matrix feelings from the Science Fiction element. However, I feel like the drug abuse and sex was a bit over done. This book was still very good.

This game is... okay
You strategically build a monster to attack a baby army. The kids (ages 9 and 12) love it, but I found it pretty boring. Maybe getting the nsfw deck would make it more interesting for adults? It just didn't hold my interest.
