Auburn (57 KP) rated Alex, Approximately in Books
Jun 21, 2019
Nothing makes one swoon as much as a story of two people finding eachother. Meeting online, then in real life. Neither knows the other is actually their online bff. It makes the story and romance that much better. I adore the characters and the back stories so well woven in. I read this after reading her other book and I found that this one was much better. The way the characters interact and grow to be fond instead of an insta-love.
Should you try it: Perfect for fans of romance that will curl your toes with giddiness.

Gorgeous Fight Scenes
Overall Clever Script
Smart, Sexy, Action Packed
Although I am a huge fan of hot sexy badass chicks I found the flashback sequences top distracting to truly enjoy the film. I understand the purpose of it, demonstrating a truly brilliant effect of multiple scenes laying over each other meant to deceive, holding true the spy game, they were also distracting as one had to piece together what was happening quickly and by then the scene was over. However the acting was truly brilliant and the scenes were beautiful to behold.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
I liked this book need a teensy bit less than #9 but i can't really put my finger on why.
Sukey and Vicky see a suspicious man passing off an envelope and then he dies in a car crash that seems very suspicious.
A head found on the beach is connected and our friends s and V are on the case .
I don't know, this one just seemed a lot more slow going for me.
I like it a lot, though!

A Magical Nod to the Feminist
An overall wonderful tale that bridges the idea of standing on one's own two feet and overcoming any obstacles. The story's feministic themes partnered with these ideas create a stunningly magical tale that will make it hard to put the book down. I found myself falling in love with just about every character, wonderfully surprised by the in depth background each character has, enjoying the way they expressed these backgrounds and grew from them. I recommended read for anyone who enjoys a good fantasy novel.

So as there is no follow up to the handmaid's tale I decided to branch our and read a different Attwood book! And I must say that this one is also a very weird concept. I enjoyed it... not as much as the Handmaid but Attwood seems to have a talent for coming up with weird and wonderful ideas for her books.
I wouldn't read a sequel to this if there was one, and it doesn't fix a Handmaids craving if that is what you are looking for, but as an independent book I found this a good read.

Should Have Waited For DVD Release
My daughter and I love horror so we knew this was a must see for us. I can honestly say that I should have waited for it to be on DVD so I could have saved some money as this movie left me feeling unsatisfied. I got more of a kick in watching people jump out of their seats when they got startled. Maybe I just expected more of this movie than I got? Instead of being scared I found myself laughing.....yes.... I am quite disappointed by this one.

Expensive expansions
The first few times I played this game, I thought it was the best thing ever. However, after a few more times, I found myself laughing less and less because I've 'heard it all before'. I recently played with an expansion pack though which picked it up a notch again. If you are willing to keep your deck updated with the expansions then this is a good investment as it's a great game to play with large groups.

Remembers where you left off
Can listen offline
I love this app. It's great that you can download tracks to listen to offline. It pauses if you get an incoming call. It remembers where you paused so you can come back to it easily. I also like that you can change the reading speed as at first I found it too slow. I'm so chuffed that my library is a part of this. I do find it a bit faffy to find books. Especially foreign language books (of which I'm still to find)

I have a hard time playing FPS games, but I took a lot of breaks so I was able to play this game at my own pace. The story is good and I found it interesting. I feel like the game missed out however on not having a campaign. The zombie aspect was cool, but it wasn't anything groundbreaking. If you are big into COD games, you'll enjoy it. It's not a terrible game and I did enjoy playing it for what it was, but I feel there's other games out there that offer a little more.

I Just Don't Think I Get It
Don't know if it's just me, but I did not rate this program. Maybe the humour is too subtle/ dark/ deadpan, not sure, but try as I might, I just could not get into it. I did not laugh at the jokes, and found the dialogue very one dimensional (Not sure what I mean by that, just flat, I guess). I know a lot of people like it, so it must just be me, but was not into it. It's no Rick & Morty.
