Another masterpiece by Studio Ghibli. This is a fantastic movie with great attention to detail and some fantastic interpretation of classic Japanese mythology. This is a beautiful tale of respect and the hunt for peace between humans and spirits. It gives the message that we need to respect nature and all that it provides for us. We may have strayed from nature in some areas of the world but we can still respect it and all that comes from nature.

Hey you guys, if you're looking for a fun flick to watch with the ohana then this should fit the bill. It's very Goonies-ish, and even stars Ke Huy Quan who played Data in The Goonies. If you've been to Oahu then it's fun seeing all the recognizable places. And if you're lucky enough to curl up with your ohana to watch this movie, then you no need to go on a treasure hunt for the treasure is right there beside you.

4.5 stars.
What an ending!
I liked this more than the first, more action packed and character development. It was nice to learn more about Sophie's dad and Cal.
I am so intrigued about what's going to happen next with everything; the Council, the Brannicks, The Eye.
I'm hoping that Archer and Sophie get some sort of happy ending and that maybe Sophie's mum and dad might get together again.
Right now I'm off to hunt for Book 3 online!

David McK (3633 KP) rated The Silence (2019) in Movies

Netflix horror drama, that more than owes a debt to the strikingly-familiar 'A Quiet Place': again, we have creatures that hunt by sound (here, of the winged variety that swarm their victim), a strong focus on a family group, and a deaf girl at the centre of it all.
While critics seem to prefer 'A Quiet Place', I actually found this to be the slightly better of the two: only slightly, mind, as neither were great (in my book).

First, I just have to say how gorgeous this cover is! If I hadn't been intrigued by the synopsis, I would have grabbed it up for the cover alone. Second, if you are not already a fan of Angela Hunt, then you will be after reading this amazingly chiseled novel. She is absolutely talented and truly captured my soul with this new novel. This is Biblical fiction at it's finest!
I am a lover of Historical fiction and this book fits the bill for best of 2017 so far! Reading about Cleopatra and Chava really moved me. I've heard of Cleopatra, of course, but never really read a book that centered around her time. So, getting to know Chava, the young woman waiting to take her place at the Queen's side and Cleopatra, and all that was Alexandra, was truly an event I don't want to forget. The detail that Ms. Hunt adds to this novel is breath taking and I won't soon forget the feel of being in the heart of the story.
If you want a novel that will whisk you away to a time in history that isn't often written about, then I suggest this book with high flying colors! If you want to be captivated and become the characters, then this 5 star novel is highly worth getting! This book kept me turning the pages long into the night and I am already anxiously awaiting another book by this author who knows just what her fans love! <a href="http://cafinatedreads.com/review-eygpts-sister-by-angela-hunt/"; target="_blank">This review was originally posted on Cafinated Reads</a>

Oh my goodness. This book, y'all. THIS. BOOK. Angela Hunt is an amazing author. Her style is so incredibly unique. I was blessed to have EGYPT'S SISTER and now I've been doubly blessed to get to read another incredibly moving, mind altering novel by the uberly talented Ms. Hunt.
In this incredible novel, we get to see Judah and Leah. I had a deep sadness for all Leah went through. As someone who has dealt with an abusive man before, I felt all her trust issues, I felt all her pain and suffering. I can't imagine what it was like during that time period to be abused by your father and not be able to trust.
And Judah....oh, how I loved his flaw filled self. He was not someone I would have normally enjoyed seeing in a book, but as I read the story, I fell in love with him hard. He was such a wonderful person for the story. Seeing him with Leah, well I cheered them on throughout the book.
Ms. Hunt has, once again, hit the Biblical fiction nail on the head. This book will shake you to the core, and leave you with all the feels that a book can leave you with. The inspirational messages from the Lord are perfectly pieced together within the pages of this book. If I could give this book 5 million stars I would. Go grab it now! You won't be sorry!
