When the board member of a tea museum is murdered, the directors must come together to figure out what happened to keep the museum afloat. I enjoyed the characters but found the pacing a little off.

Slow burner
I read a lot of great reviews about this, but I found it as a very slow burner and I didn't always quite understand what was going on. I felt like I was missing something, the film was certainly missing something. I guess you could say there was an air of unease but that's it.

Good information
I've started listening to The Business for one of my college classes. I really enjoy listening to most of their podcasts, however, I've found that they have a tendency to be heavily biased at times which can throw you for a loop. However, I will continue listening to them.

What a great read! This was a fun action packed page turner. Gideon Jones is such an engaging charismatic character I found myself drawn into his world and on the edge of my seat as he dealt with the perils of ninja assassins and dark magic. Do yourself a favor and get this book!
  
I really LOVED this book. I've been on a poetry/verse style kick lately so this caught my eye immediately. The flow of the story worked really well and the illustrations added a lot to it. I learned a lot, and I found it hard to put down. I would love to see more like this.

Very meh
Full disclosure, I think I've watched the first one but that's it until this one.
I found it to be funny at times and predicable at others. The story is uninspired and the jokes are predicable. You may chuckle at best. Not a bad movie but it's one the kids can enjoy.

The Magician's Nephew was definitely an interesting and quick read. It was nice to read about the beginning of Narnia and see how the world was created. I will say that this was not a book that I will have to read again. I found myself bored with it and glad that it was only 126 pages (nook).

This was an entertaining read. I enjoyed reading it. I will say that I found the writing fairly juvenile but overall enjoyable. The characters were lovable and I constantly cheered them on. I am glad that I didn't pay for this book. It was enjoyable but I will spend my money on different authors in the future.

Found a really good "zombie-apocalypse" movie on Amazon called "The Girl With All The Gifts". I never thought I'd see Glenn Close in a zombie movie, but she's one of the main characters. Everything was done well. The acting, cinematography and effects. The story line and plot were very interesting. This one is definitely worth a watch!

Fantastic!
When I found out this was coming out I knew I had to watch it. I previously read the book that this movie is based on. Alex Roe and Jessica Rothe were excellent choices for Liam and Josie. Forever My Girl is about returning home. I absolutely loved that the soundtrack consisted of country music.
