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.

I may be a little biased, as I have a special place in my heart for found footage movies. However, I really did enjoy this one. It was unique as far as the topic goes, and was made to feel very real. No one really does know what they're getting into when they go to haunts. They may be deemed safe and fun, but are they always really that way?

This one took me a while to read if I'm honest, into the second quarter I found myself struggling to continue and I did stop reading it entirely for a while. However I persisted and boy am I glad I did.
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Interview with the Vampire: Claudia's Story in Books

Wow, this was a beautiful graphic novel. I fell in love with the illustration. The sepia tones with the red highlights were beautiful.
This is a good companion graphic novel to "Interview with the Vampire". I found myself fascinated with the illustrations and the quotes from the original novel. I'm glad that I bought the hardcover novel because it is going to be a book that I'm going to show off.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Mime Very Own Book in Books

This was really interesting. I have been challenging myself to read things that I normally wouldn't. This picture book was hilarious. I found the mime pictures to be creative and entertaining. It was something very unique. I am glad that this was a book I picked up and flow through. I do wish that the pictures were larger. They were a little hard to read/see/enjoy on my Nook.
Gisell Middleton (189 KP) rated The Girl From Home in Books
Jul 12, 2018
This book is amazing! I found myself captivated from the very first page and wanting more. I enjoyed the dual narration, mostly because it was seamless and not announced. The time jumps made for an interesting contrast in the main character's situation and personality evolution and having that only halfway through the book kept it fresh and not confusing. One of the better books I've read in a long time!

Can't complain
I enjoyed this, I don't think the story came across as it did in the book but I was thankful there was more focus on the story behind rather that the sex scenes which I think took a lot from the movies originally. Sometimes I found the acting quite awkward but I think that was part of the way the film is and how they should come across.

Mind bending and such a visual experience
I can understand why people may not enjoy this film but, I found it really captivating. By the end you 're left with more questions than answers after such a mind boggling journey throughout the film. The visuals in it are stunning and the cast is strong. I enjoyed watching this film a lot when I don't usually like sci fi films.
