Jessica Cashen (1 KP) rated Embellished (Chronicles of Orian) in Books
May 16, 2018
This book is over 300 pages but the writing is awesome so you won't mind! The book is well written and you will adore the characters. This book is unlike anything I have ever read. It is about teenagers playing MMORPG, lightening strikes and they wind up in the game. It is full of adventure, and twists and turns. I can't wait for book 2. I am giving a voluntary, honest review of an ARC from NetGalley.

Can't wait for the next season
This show had well developed characters who each had there own back story which really impressed me as it's something I feel only the best shows manage to do. This is one for people who prefer gore and/or superheroes.
I can't say much more without giving a way the plot but it's a series constantly full of surprises and trust me you will be surprised!!

Imogen SB (4507 KP) rated Seal Team Flix in Tabletop Games

'This is a design of silent moments and held breath giving way to furious high fives and sore bronchial passages. It’s novel and quite addictive. It’s even extremely difficult propelling repeated play and focused intensity. Take all that and cram it inside that massive box of cardboard goodness and you have one of 2018’s most definitive releases.'

Dean (6925 KP) rated Immortals (2011) in Movies
Feb 11, 2018
A decent sword & sandals film. Generally more like 300 than Clash of the Titans thankfully. From the same producers I believe as 300 and it has a very similar CGI visual style to it. A nice twist to some of the Greek mythology in the story. The fight scenes are well choreographed and the SFX are very good. Add to that Mickey Rourke giving a good performance as the chief villain and you have a very good film.
Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated Cross Bones (Temperance Brennan, #8) in Books
Mar 1, 2018
I was really disappointed when I realized where the plot was going - Christ's bones? Come on, Reichs. But she did a very good job with the plot, giving the reader plenty of intrigue without ever getting into any mystical nonsense. I found the references to The Da Vinci Code highly amusing (there may have been some that I missed, but I haven't read the book, and I was only half-way paying attention when I saw the movie).
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
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.

365Flicks (235 KP) rated Redwood (2017) in Movies

Paton Smashes it again... Must Watch
A fantastic Low Budget Psychological horror that shows us that the monsters lurking in the woods are not necessarily the scariest thing imaginable. Director Tom Paton turns vampire movies on there head a little while showing complete respect to the genre and giving us something new. Fantastic performances from the leads that really pull you in and have you on the edge of your seat right till the conclusion. Great Flick... 5*s
Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Shifter's Shadow (Legion of Angels #5) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
Aww, that last bit! Nero giving up training to just lounge on a settee with Leda eating caramel popcorn?! Who'd have thought? Haha.
I do enjoy this series very much and most of that is centered around Leda and Nero's relationship, and the friendship she has with many of the other members of the Legion. That's not to say that i dont enjoy reading about their adventures out in the wild.
Looking forward to reading more of this series!
