ArecRain (8 KP) rated Gerrity's Bride in Books
Jan 18, 2018
While I enjoyed reading this, it was one of those novels where the main couple butted heads all the time. It was easy and interesting to watch the two fall in love, and I often found myself laughing. The characters were filled with personality and fire, and I always love a romance novel with some drama. Other than the constant fighting, I can find nothing negative to say about this novel.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated Motherhood is Murder (A Maternal Instincts Mystery, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A night out with Kate's new mommy group turns deadly when one of the members is found dead at the bottom of some stairs. Tragic accident or murder? Lots of humor, and I identified with Kate a little too much. The plot is a little uneven, but still an enjoyable book.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated No Place Like Holmes (No Place Like Holmes, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A kid's mystery that focuses on Sherlock Holmes' lesser known neighbor who might finally get his big change when he nephew comes over from America for the summer. I found some of the characters stuff predictable, but overall I enjoyed this fresh take on the Holmes universe.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated Nate the Great San Francisco Detective in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Nate is visiting his cousin in San Francisco. She is a junior detective as well, and Nate winds up taking on one of her cases - a missing joke book. While I missed the regular supporting characters and found the chapters a little weird, I did still like the book.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Stuart Little in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Moxy has one more day to read Stuart Little, her summer homework assignment, before 4th grade starts. Will she actually get it done, or will she finds ways to put it off again? As a procrastinator at heart, I found this book way too true and very funny.

Kristy H (1252 KP) rated The Commission: A Sam Kincaid Mystery in Books
Feb 13, 2018
The story in this novel managed to capture my attention fairly well (even if I did figure out a good portion of the plot early on), but the writing was rather painful. The author left nothing to the imagination or inference, but spelled every single plot point, emotion, and thought out. I found myself rolling my eyes fairly often... but still curious as to what would happen next.
Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated The Misadventures of Two reluctant Zombie Hunters (Vol.1) in Books
Mar 18, 2018
This book was full of sarcasm and snark. Therefore I loved it. The main characters did not have a hero complex at all like most zombie type books. The Rules made me laugh. KL was my favorite because I just want to be like her. I am glad I got this recommendation or I may never have found this book and author. I will be reading more, including Vol. 2.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated Last Light (Restoration #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The Branning Family has found themselves stuck in the suburbs with no modern convinces. The entire world has been hit, and nothing electric works. But even worse, there's a killer in their neighborhood. This Christian novel grabbed me, and I loved it. Unfortunately, the characters were a bit shallow.

Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated The SEAL's Rebel Librarian (Alpha Ops, #2) in Books
Feb 13, 2018
I loved this book, when I first started it I thought the characters sounded familiar and then realized I read book one a couple of months ago so this was an easy and compelling read. I liked the characters, Erin just goes and grabs what she wants and that includes Jack. It makes a change for the woman to do all the instigating and I found it refreshing.

Tim curry was hard to beat
I really enjoyed watching this, I has high hopes about this remake but never expected Tim Currys Pennywise to be topped. But I am willing to admit that is what happened. I felt unnerved throughout the whole movie. I found the acting to be convincing and I felt involved in the story and a connection to the characters. I look forward to the second.
