kind of boring
Not as good as the critics said
"Eighth Grade" was hailed as a funny, uncomfortable look at what it is "really like" to be in eighth grade. Instead, I found it to just be an uncomfortable look at what a particular person might go through, but it didn't feel related - at all - to what I experienced in eighth grade.

It is basically a series of scenes, with no real engaging storyline or character growth, and I was kind of bored during most of it.

Everything. There is not one bad song on the album. This is a no skip album. (1 more)
Higlights include Women, Hysteria, and Love Bites.
Possibly one of the greatest albums ever created, Hysteria starts strong and finishes strong. When the first song hits, you know immediately you are about to go on a special trip. My favorite track is indeed the first track, "Women", but "Love Bites" and "Hysteria" come really close. There is not a single bad track to be found and the album is awarded the legendary No Skip status. Absolute perfection.

A couple of these I have read for the authors before but a lot of these were new reads for me. I loved all these authors. They are amazing writers, the stories were so much fun to read. I loved the problems that they had.. the love that was found.. and of course all the paranormal beings in the stories. Totally amazing box set and I am so glad I got this from the authors for a read/review. I will recommend this set to all my friends

This was a different type of read for me but I found myself enjoying it so very much. I really liked watching Amity learn who she is and what she is meant to do and who she is meant to be. The storyline flowed well.. the characters were very enjoyable and I loved how it all came together. The only thing I wasn't fond on was the ending.. I can't say more because of spoilers but dang.. lol.. But it was still a very fun story to read

Wow, just wow. It starts off pretty interesting with the two characters. With one on the edge skirting death. I found the idea with slipping in time pretty interesting. The idea connecting to the title of this book is interesting. Just when I thought everything was pretty much settled a twist happens. That piece made my head hurt, not dead but not alive indeed. Schrodinger's cat at it's finest!

Hmmm, not sure how to explain this one. Feels a bit hit or miss in the storytelling as parts of the story bored me. The story just dragged on and on. With the whole door of one night conquests and then all of a sudden with the mom getting sick. This title became one of my few did not finish at some points, really hard to read as I found the main mc really winy. The only good part was what happened at the end.

The story of Emily Middleton who has just lost her boyfriend who she happens to have a vacation to south america with planned convinces her mother to go with her of the vacation cause it is non refundable. Of course these two get taken and escape only to be found but escape again. There only hope a mama's boy of a son at home who tries to convince the US state department even blackmailing them. All in all its a bad movie into really worth my time

Rich descriptive text
I chose to read this book as I saw the advert for the TV series just before it was due, and felt that it sounded really interesting. I like to read books before the film or TV series is released wherever possible to fully enjoy the story as intended as the series or movie can be very different. I read through the book very quickly and found it difficult to put down. Neil Gaiman is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors.

classic Stories are timeless
As good as an audio book delivered to your phone
This is a great podcast, classic literature has stood the test of time for a reason. I found Captain Blood because of him, and it's now one of my favorite books of all time. He tends to select toward the horror side of things, but you can always find something you are interested in listening to. From Sherlock Holmes to Peter Pan. Herland to Pride and Prejudice. and lots of small stories in between.
