I don't know where to start with this book. I wish I had found it sooner because I love it. As soon as I finished it the first time, I immediately wanted to read it again. It's funny, ridiculous, and amazing. You can't help but love the characters and their antics. I cannot recommend this book enough.

On the edge of your seat stuff!
Stumbled across this series by accident and am so glad I did. My household has binge watched it and found it to be such a fantastic show. Each episode has had us sitting on the edge of our seats praying things work out for the team. Great characters and writing.

Book 1 of the InuYasha series was full of action from the start, but it was not confusing. InuYasha is a half-demon who is after a magical stone that a girl named Kagome had in her possession when she entered his time. Other demons are after her since they found out that the stone has appeared again.

This was a fun short story with a few good twists and turns to keep the reader interested. I found it both funny and creepy as I really liked the characters but I absolutely hate clowns. I would say this is more a comedy than a horror but I'm still going to shelve it as horror because...clowns.

Love this series!
I love these books. They can be found in the children’s section of book stores but from the second book onwards they contain explicit scenes of a sexual nature and shouldn’t be read by children. Feyre is tough and a perfect main character

I found this story to be really cute. There is just this innocent feel to it that I really loved about it. I also enjoyed Magical Realism elements very much. My one complaint is that I would have preferred it if she had ended up the man that she didn't end up with in the end.

Vikki Brannagan (3 KP) rated the Xbox One version of Red Dead Redemption 2 in Video Games

This is my favourite game by Rockstar. I found it addictive and the graphics were amazing.
Having the freedom to explore, acquire a bounty, hunt a bounty and catch horses, well that made the game right up my alley. Sure there were a couple bugs but they were so minor it was easy to ignore them

Mount Dragon. Labor des Todes

I'd read both 'Relic' and 'Reliquary' quite a few years back, and had enjoyed them both.

Based on those two novels, I decided to give 'Mount Dragon' a shot as well. Unfortunatley, this is nowhere near as enjoyable as those other two books: I found this one to be slow, heavy going, and totally lacking in any charismatic characters.
  
Set primarily within one location (a house) over the course of one night, this book - for me,at least - is the very definition of a 2-star rating.

Basically a swords and sorcery whodunnit, this is never going to win any awards for either storytelling or originality: I found the denoument to be rather obvious, for instance.

Not a bad book, but there's just so little really known about Katherine Swynford there's hardly enough to make a biography out of! I finished this feeling I had learned more about Margery Kempe than I had about Katherine Swynford. There were also several times when I found text repeated almost verbaitm from one section to another.
