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.
  
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.
Nothing this book can solve - I’d just like a female perspective too as female autism has other traits and separate difficulties. (0 more)
Insightful!

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.

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.

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.

Great for CBR/CBZ files
Downloadable comics
A great app for digital comic books!
Comixology is a great app for comic book readers. I know most comic book fans like myself enjoy hard copies, but digital comics are excellent for saving space, and comixology is most likely the most popular digital comic app.

As I said, it's easy to use, can import CBR/CBZ files, and you can download comics straight from them. The digital comics seem a bit costly for digital copies, but I think I'm just old fashioned in that respect!

Will read again
Contains spoilers, click to show
When reading this story, you feel like you need a intro book to fully understand the back story. While the main characters do build, and you end up liking them. There is a lot left to unfold. Since this is just book one, I have hopes with book two coming out in a couple months. That things will really spice up. Due to the ending with a good amount of drama. One things for sure, I will be rereading it before starting book two.

Hmmm....
This was not the book for me unfortunately. I found the main character Flavia very unbelievable. She was wise beyond her years and seemed to flirt with older men at the age of 12. I felt like this tried to mirror some of Arthur Conan Doyle's writing but just really missed the mark (for me). The plot was quite obvious aswell. Surprised that it has some considerable accolades.

(Sorry, I hate leaving bad reviews)

Just Because
I can not decide what I liked best about this book or what I liked least. However, it was a good young adult book for those who like science fiction with a little bit of romance mixed in.

MILA's world is turned upside down when an accident involving her falling out of the back of a truck end with her mother giving her some information that she would have never guessed. This information starts MILA on a journey to find herself and her place in this world.
