Michelle (4 KP) rated American Gods: TV Tie-in in Books

Rich descriptive text
I chose to read this book as I saw the advert for the TV series just before it was due, and felt that it sounded really interesting. I like to read books before the film or TV series is released wherever possible to fully enjoy the story as intended as the series or movie can be very different. I read through the book very quickly and found it difficult to put down. Neil Gaiman is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors.

I switched from android to iPhone and the Galaxy Note 8 marks my switch back. The phone is quick to load, and it just works wonderfully all around. I like the way the phone looks and fits in my hand. It's easy to use and there are a ton of neat tricks and apps that can be used with the S Pen, which is easily my favorite thing about this phone.
I've recommended it to several of my friends already and I don't think I'll ever go back to iPhone.

Amberlee Brooks (0 KP) rated a video of Bears vs Babies in Tabletop Games

First of all...why would you want to eat babies? Thats strange. Secondly, this games seems to have a lot of rules or maybe Im just confused. What happens If you deal the cards out at first and forever reason there were a lot of baby cards? So now on your turn there are like say 10 baby cards in the pile. Do you flip over all of them and the babies are that strong? How are you supposed to beat them if there are so many?

Short gameplay
I won this game in a Smashbomb giveaway and m my family has really enjoyed playing it. It's easily adaptable between 2 and 4 players. We laugh about the cards and have a great time.
Gameplay is short enough to hold the attention of my kids. They don't even get upset when they lose like they do with other games. It's a new favorite for sure. The only down side is that i wish the deck was just a little bigger... but I can always buy the expansion.

Crime drama done right!
If you love the Michael Connelly Bosch crime novels; you will love be this Amazon TV series. Michael Connelly even has a hand in producing this series, so it makes it pure from book to screen. It isn't like other crime dramas that solve themselves in an hour it takes the whole season. Which, is very refreshing! Even if you aren't familiar with the book series, you will definitely enjoy this show. It keeps your attention and doesn't just give away clues and keeps you guessing.

Jul 26, 2018
Easy read - each chapter is relative to a trait or “issue” with concise thoughts and insights that can be really useful if living or working with autistic people. (2 more)
Thought provoking and moving in ways I hadn’t anticipated.
A book I can share with my eldest daughter and other family members in the hope they can make connections or learn how to better interact with my youngest autistic daughter.
Insightful!
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated The Best Damn Answers to Life's Hardest Questions: A Flowchart Book in Books

A little too judgy for me.
I really wanted to like this book. It look quirky, cute, and absolutely adorable. Unfortunately, this did not meet my expectations. I felt that this book was just too judgy for me. I get what Tess Koman was trying to do, but I was bored with it by the fifth page. The illustrations were okay, and at times I did crack a slight smile. All in all, I was not impressed.

Auburn (57 KP) rated Enchanted Chaos in Books
Jun 21, 2019
This was not what I thought it was going to be at all. I have read both the first and second book. The story and the magic is magnificent and different. The romance is fun and not at all what you are expecting. My only problem is that I am unclear if this is a reverse harem or just wierdly written? I may have to wait for the third book to find out.
Should you try it: If you like new magic, house full of hot guys, and surprising romance this may be for you.

Stay to the end credits
Just finished watching movie was it the wait of ten years Definitely worth the wait. Loved the sequel loved the first zombieland and the sequel delivers the same humor plus new zombie types. The gangs all back plus new characters like Madison who's my favourite of the characters made me know end. Plus stay to the end credits won't spoil it there's a extra scene that calls back to the first film

I had this on my list for quite a while it seems like and it was a surprise how much I liked and enjoyed it.
My negative take from it was during the ending with some of the relationship scenes etc between the MC, Brianna and one of the fallen Lords.
The romance/relationship was a little too blah for me - not sure how to describe it. It just rubbed me the wrong way, but other than that, I loved it especially all the plot twists and everything.
