A not so chilling review
Contains spoilers, click to show
I resisted watching this show due to the whole hype about it, sometimes the hype is better than the actual TV show.
Giving myself a few months I began to watch it, and I was enchanted from the first episode.
The directors and actors/actresses do the TV Show justice, they are all fantastic and believable with wicked senses of humor.
I didn't expect this TV Series to have humor in from the responses I had received from people who had watched this before me, i was pleasantly surprised.
Jam packed full of adventure, horror and humor I really enjoyed watching this show. Watching the characters interact with one another and the relationships between them grow and change was very interesting to watch. SPOILERS - The one episode with the Sleep Demon was a very interesting episode to watch as it displayed each of the characters in a way that wouldn't have been possible any other way.
The only negative point that could be made is that it can be predictable and Sabrina just seems to look for trouble which on occasion can be a tiny bit annoying but the characters reactions usually make up for the annoyance.
I would say for anyone interested in the fantastical, mystical and an introduction to Witches to give this show a watch. It made me want to dye my hair back blonde, wear a head band and to paint my nails black! Definitely would recommend to anyone to watch.

Good enhancement of world
Good building on a world of magic
A good second book in the series that would become my favorite. Jim is still trying a bit in this to find his voice, and the writing will develop more fully in the next couple of books, but still a solid addition to the series. Dresden is a very human and relatable hero, but with a wonderfully crafty mind and hilarious self-depreciating sense of humor.

Let down
Suicide Squad was a film that had a lot of hype and fell curse to it as many films do, I think the storyline for this film was rubbish, the humor was always forced and didn't really flow in my opinion. The music I did enjoy it did fit really well. Will Smith as deadshot was a great choice as I think he acted the part the best.

Reclaim what is rightfully yours, Marvel!
He's a teen! He sucks at life! Being Spider-Man is burdensome!
I'll give it this: that's pretty damned close to perfect as far as the writing goes. That said, I'm sure Sony will screw it up, like that time they shoehorned in Venom into SM3 for toy purposes and ruined it. Sigh.

I didn't enjoy this quite as much as the first, The Color of Magic, due to a slow start. After I got into it though, it was quite fun and enjoyable. :) I love the world Mr. Pratchett has invented, and his humor, characters, and way he writes are all wonderful!

I totally enjoyed this more this time around. I was in a totally different headspace back in 2009, plus this just hit my mood perfectly at this time.

This is the first book in this series and the first one I've read. I really need to go and read the other books so I can follow the story better. This story has lots of heat, humor and heart. The characters are strong and hot and steamy. The characters also have fantastic chemistry and banter which helps the story flow. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future. Highly recommended

Dating expert Wollie Shelley takes a job for a private company attempting to teach their trainees how to interact well socially. But she's also trying to find out information on the company for the FBI. Is she in over her head? This book hooked me early on and didn't let me go. The pace was great and the humor added to the fun.
