the game that never lets you down
I couldn't wait for this to be released, as i have played them all, and fall out 4 never let me down once, from the changing your features until the end, the story captivated and drew me in. and just because i clocked the game, it didn't stop there, i found my self making new towns and doing a lot of side quests, definitely value for money as always.

unique storyline (1 more)
the inclusion of the pictures make the story feel authentic
I read a lot of books and this was one of the most unique plot lines I have ever come across.
The only reason I didn't give it a 10/10 is because the story did tend to get a bit confusing. I found myself being confused by the sheer amount of characters and having to slip back to remind myself who was who.

Charlotte Cartlidge (22 KP) rated Elizabeth is Missing in Books
Aug 18, 2018
Elizabeth is missing is an easy read tackling a tough subject matter (dementia). I was gripped from the get go reading about Maud and attempting to unmuddle her mind. I found myself very attached to her story both past and present. Without giving away to much, a slightly disappointing ending, leaving me with more questions than I had to begin with. Overall I loved Emma Healeys storytelling and would read a few more of her books in the future
Never be bored again
The lectures are delivered in a variety of formats and the transcript option is great if you want to take notes. I delved into TED looking for a specific subject, which I found easily, and then stayed to investigate some other topics I didn't even know I was interested in. I used to spend hours lost in encyclopedia as a child and this is a digital equvalent.
Jemma Walsh (81 KP) rated Silent Scream (D.I. Kim Stone, #1) in Books
Sep 1, 2018
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.

Leah (: (569 KP) rated The Tiny Curse (Werewolf High book 2) in Books
Sep 3, 2018
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.

Dean (6927 KP) rated Auto Focus (2002) in Movies
Sep 10, 2018 (Updated Sep 10, 2018)
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.
B (62 KP) rated Goodreads: Book Reviews in Apps
Sep 29, 2018
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
B (62 KP) rated Uglies (Uglies, #1) in Books
Sep 30, 2018
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.
