Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Night Secrets (Avador, #1) in Books
Jan 12, 2021
A bit of a lie, me completing it that is, i got to 41% before i gave it up.
Don't get me wrong, i was enjoying it but it's not really my kind of book and since it's been on my "currently reading" list for a couple of weeks and im not in any rush to get back to it, i'm giving it up.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated L-DK, Vol. 09 in Books

3.5 stars.
I have a few issues with the whole lifestyle of manga stories. I don't get some of it. I don't agree with some bits and some bits are quite cute. Therefore I'm giving this one 3.5 stars. The end bit perked it up a bit for me but other than that I was a bit "meh".
I will be continuing the series though.

jmercado (1 KP) rated Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock in Books
Jan 15, 2018
So after giving this a day to sink in, Im still not really sure how i feel about this book.
Leonard Peacock has a mission.
On his 18th birthday he has decided to murder his former best friend and then himself.
Before that, he wants to give the only 4 friends he really has one last gift to remember him by.
The story follows him giving these gifts to his four friends and proceeds to talk about why these friends meant the most.
That writing was a little bland for me and i didn't feel as emotionally invested as i though i would until half way through the novel.
I did manage to finish in one day.
I did enjoy how people weren't completely oblivious to Leonard when he starts giving his presents.
Completely realistic in my eyes as how people can tell something isn't right but still let you stroll on as if things are.
And i really loved that they even made notice that he did have the characteristics of a suicidal person.
towards the end of the book when i finally was emotionally attached, i couldn't stop crying.
Not being emotionally invested in Leonard and how the story ended were a bigger reason as to why i gave this 3.5 stars, but overall i enjoyed this book.

Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated Skin Trade (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #17) in Books
Mar 1, 2018
I kept saying I was giving up on Hamilton's books, then giving her just one more chance as each novel came out, hoping that at some point she'd give up the porn and write real novels again. With this volume, the effort is finally vindicated.
Don't get me wrong--there's definitely sex in <i>Skin Trade</i>. Sex with yet more new men, even! But it doesn't start happening 'til well into the book, and when it does occur there's a lot more justification for it than at some times in the past. It's still explicit, and there are still likely to be more than two people in any given bed at a time, but if any of that squicked you, you wouldn't be reading any of her work.
The book nearly earned four stars, but there were a few plot holes that bothered me too much to forget them.

Dean (6926 KP) rated A Bad Moms Christmas (2017) in Movies
Nov 21, 2017
Not quite the gift that keeps on giving
The first Bad moms film was hilarious, mainly down to the chemistry of the three main characters. This has a great cast including the grand moms... But it lacks a bit of what made the first film so funny. It still has it's funny moments just not as many as the first film.

Character dynamics (1 more)
Strong female lead
Bone lady
In the battle between brains and brawn, it's nice to watch brains come out on top in the looks department! Although the social ineptness of highly intelligent people is portrayed, it's refreshing to see the journey each character makes throughout each season. The storylines aren't as far-fetched as some may perceive, with the fantastic Kathy Reichs giving her anthropological insight to the script.
