Sarah (7800 KP) rated Game Of Thrones in TV

Possibly the best TV show ever created
It isn't a small claim to say something is the best show ever created, but I reckon Game of Thrones is the only show to really deserve that title.
It's epic in every respect. The effects, the characters, the plot in general real. It keeps you watching every episode and with the constant twists and shocks, you never can be sure what will happen, even to your favourite characters.
I've even managed to forgive the show for slightly deviating from the books, it's that good. The only negative is that one day the show will end, although we can guarantee there it will be a spectacular ending.
If you're into fantasy or anything similar, you have to watch this show.

Saffire is a really fun and mysterious book. There the main character is brought to Panama Canal to do something and to have chat with General. You get a good history about the time period. You also get a romance and action packed.
What will happen to Holt? There are some historical characters in the book. Sigmund does a wonderful job of tells the facts about 1909. The year may be a bit off but the facts stated are true. You will find that at the end of the book.
If you enjoy historical fiction, you will enjoy this book. It tells of the building of the Panama Canal. I like that fell. It also gives a little mystery along with the action in the book.

A quiet place part 2
Contains spoilers, click to show
So this film is exactly like A quiet place. So much so its bordering on plagiarism! It follows a family and the teenage daughter is deaf. Cue weird monsters that kill people and the only way to stay safe is to be quiet - sound familiar? The only difference is the inclusion of a weird religious cult. In general its really well put together and the acting is top notch especially Stanley Tucci & the very good Kiernan Shipka. The biggest problem with this is that it builds up ok towards a climax that is over before it starts. Seriously the most rushed ending ever. So an ok film with a crappy ending.

A Gem of a porno
I avoided this podcast for a while because I didn't understand that it was a comedy, but once I took the plunge (thinking it would be actual erotica), I have not stopped forcing this podcast down the throats of others, and I've converted every single one. If you, like me, get fatigued with the darkness and tragedy in the world, you need porno day (Mondays) in your life. It's a great way to start off your week with some genuine belly laughs.

Still kind of Beta
Fun 100 player survival game
This is a very fun title with a good selection of game types and random ones appearing every other week as special modes.
The game is still kind of in its beta phase as the single player side of the game may only just have been released or still be on the way.
There are other games like this but with the rapid defence building and crazy gameplay this does stand out on its own.
I have not played the single player side of the game but will buy it soon and possibly update this review at that time.

Humor
I watched this movie not too long ago at family movie night and everyone there enjoyed it. It is hard to find a movie that my family will all enjoy and agree on, but this one was awesome. The movie mainly follows two competitive, game-obsessed people and their friends as a traditional game night takes them on a wild and unexpected adventure. The movie kind of keeps you guessing and enthralled. There is lots of funny parts (some mildly inappropriate if I'm remembering correctly) and is over all very entertaining. It is your typical comedy, but manages to make all the usual cliches seem interesting and hilarious. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and would not mind watching it again. Would recommend.

Fun Writing Style
* I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.*
This book is beautifully written. It is written in a poetry style that matches well with the characters personalities. The story is that of a young man and woman who were each others first love running into each other 10 years later. I will say that it wasn't as light as I originally expected it to be, but I enjoyed the characters critic of young love and love in general. The ending also fits well with the mood of the book. Over all this wasn't my absolute favorite, but it definitely deserves a read, if not for the story than for the writing style.
