Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Walking Disaster (Beautiful, #2) in Books
Jul 12, 2018
Okay, I'm going to be honest. This book is not a complete novel. If you're going to read this book, you need to know the story and plot of the first book ("Beautiful Disaster"). I did enjoy this novel but I had to reread the first novel while reading this book.
The characters are lovable and I found myself laughing and smiling while reading this book. I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed "Beautiful Disaster." I do recommend that you reread the first book before you take on this novel.

Slow burning but kept me hooked
Found this on Netflix today (UK). And put it on purely cause it was the first thing that popped up and looked half decent.
I'm a fan of the cast, although a small lead cast to me they were strong. While the movie started off slow, even while something big happened, it kept me interested and wanting to know what happens. I really enjoyed Theo James in this.
It leaves you with questions but at the same time realising there is no answers. It was a good watch.

This book is an enjoyable, 'heart'- warming story about dealing with learning to live a 'normal' life after not knowing whether you were going to have a life at all. It also touches on the very important subject of organ donation being opt-out instead of opt-in, which is a very important cause. All in all, an easy read that covers all bases - family, love, friendships, health, grief. I found the back and forth between past, future, blog, news reports a bit confusong at times, but not enough to detract from the book.

Never read a memoir type book before, but now I think I will get more. This book was both sad and hilarious at the same time. There was a few lines in there and moments where I laughed out loud and had to re-read because I thought it was hilarious. Now, that being said, most of the book was quite sad (to the person reading it) I mean I don't think she found her life to be upsetting until she got old enough to know better, but man, that was an awesome read.

Interesting way of introducing DC heroes & villains that wouldn’t fit the Arrow-verse
Finding its pace
Contains spoilers, click to show
Season 1 kinda felt like a slow build to cross-over episodes, season 2 firmly found its footing, replacing Rip with Sarah as captain. Rory becoming a little more likeable after Snart’s sacrifice. Reverse Flash as the baddie & continuing the characters story from The Flash was an interesting take. The team also become key characters in the cross-over rather than supporting The Arrow-verse
Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated The House On Pine Street (2016) in Movies
Jul 27, 2018
I found this one on Amazon. It's a haunted house style "horror" movie. The acting is pretty weak and the story is not scary or anything even remotely close to it. The cinematography is mediocre. It's about a pregnant woman who keeps having strange things happen in her new house and no one else does or believes her and they tell her she's crazy. They have one character try to explain things toward the end of the movie but it's an extremely weak explanation. Overall this movie just isn't very good. NOT worth a watch.

The Dino De Laurentiis version of The Godfather
Not really, but it was released the same year so it felt very similar in parts to the Coppola epic, just with a robustly smaller budget.
Bronson does a great job in his portrayal of Joseph Valachi, a mafia driver turned stool pigeon. He is intense and vulnerable at the same time.
Unfortunately, having been released in 1972, it would have no chance of finding an audience, but watching it now I found it to be very entertaining.

Beautiful love story! (1 more)
Belle is beauty and brains!
Be my guest, put my writing to the test! As usual the originals are so much better, this story is the perfect representation of beauty is found within. This movie put me in all my feels, from crying to joy and even admiration! There will never be a day where I would pass on watching this movie this has been one of my most favorites since I was little! Still it ever fails to entertain!
Joni Thomas (33 KP) rated Swish and Flick: A Harry Potter Podcast in Podcasts
Aug 18, 2018
I found this podcast a few weeks ago and started listening right away. They are reviewing Prisoner of Azkaban right now and I really enjoy hearing their insight into parts of the novel that I didn't really think about before. It's fun to listen to them discuss a story that I honestly expected to know cover to cover. They pick up on things that may have been missed, things that make sense with the context of the later books to reflect on. I like getting all the different opinions offered about characters, scenes, etc.

I finally found some time to read this book. I wasn't able to stop. I connected to the main character, and there were times when I knew exactly how she felt, because I had the same experience in my life. I really though she would go for Cain at the beginning, because all the story was connecting her with him. But the moment Dennis came, I knew something's going to happen and it's going to last forever.. Such a good book. Thanks Riley ! <3
