Great read
I personally really enjoyed this book, I was instantly hooked into the story line, solver a murder that happened years before...
I really liked the main character Kim stone, giving us great details of why this case meant so much because of her awful past, and how strong of a woman she is now, this story is very fast paced and keeps you interested constantly and guessing who done it and will they be found out.

I enjoyed this book more than the second as we got to know the characters a bit more. In particular ‘the golden’ as Lucy finds herself in trouble yet again and needing the help of her reluctant new friends.

I found the antics in this book pretty funny, especially Nikolai and his hat.

However I did still find the overall story to be very slow, with not much progression towards the big questions within the book.

A well made film about the actor Bob Crane from a hit 70's TV show. His soaring popularity effects him in many ways, becoming a sex addict and with technology progressing at the time making his own "home" videos and pictures. A little known film with a good cast, how much you like it depends on whether you knew of the actor or TV show. I didn't but still found it interesting as it's based on true events.

I love this app/site. Super easy to use and keep track of books I am currently reading, want to read, or have read. I especially love the scan feature. Prior to this I would just take pictures of interesting books I found at the store and catalogue them later but the scan feature cuts out the middle step. I also love that I can connect it directly to my book blog. Highly recommend for all book lovers

I read this book around 10 years ago so excuse my vagueness and lack of detail. While I love its premise, the characters in Uglies annoyed me and I found them hard to relate to. Granted I was around 12 years old and I think I may be due for a reread. I nonetheless am grateful to this book and its series because it was my gateway into YA Dystopian which is now one of my favorite sub-genres.

Question
Name the show with these lyrics in the theme song,

"Take my love, take my land,Take me where I cannot stand.
I don't care, I'm still free,
You can't take the sky from me.

Take me out to the black,
Tell them I ain't comin back.
Burn the land and boil the sea,
You can't take the sky from me.

There's no place, I can be,
Since I've found Serenity.

And you can't take the sky from me."

I listened to this book as a child and had almost forgotten about it when I found a copy of it in my mum's classroom and borrowed/nicked it. I had forgotten just how brilliant it is and what a wonderful writer Eva Ibbotson is in general.

Brilliantly paced, beautifully told, completely touching and then hilarious by turns. This is definitely a book that I will return to if ever I am at a loss for something to read.

"Boys are good for nothing but eating and sleeping"-- The Hidden Coronet.
Great books! couldn't put them down started on page one and when I surfaced found myself on page 100. I enjoyed finding more about what happened with the makers and it kept me on my toes about well, I don't want spoliers. Let's just hope Raffi, Carys, The Sekoi, and Galen can save the world and not be destroyed in the process.

So many unanswered questions (0 more)
I loved this film. Hooked from the beginning. It’s intense. However much like when I watched the quiet place I found at the end I had so many unanswered questions. Why was this happening? What could they see? Would it ever end?
As much as I enjoyed this movie and I recommend it to anyone who hasn’t yet seen it, I do wish there was more explanation.

If you like a little camp, a little porn, and a lot of horror you have to see this movie grindhouse cult film. Dyanne Thorne is incredible but the premise of the movie is a laugh. I am glad i found this on a free movie streaming site. I would have not paid to see this.
 If you choose to watch this I recommendation is to have a few drinks and then watch. I would skip this movie.
