Erika (17788 KP) rated True Blood - Season 3 in TV
Sep 5, 2020 (Updated Sep 5, 2020)
Not my favorite season; this season introduces trashy werewolves into the True Blood universe.
The first few scenes take care of the last season's cliffhanger, showing who kidnapped Bill. It's not really clear as to why he was kidnapped at first, but we get an introduction into the world of Vampire Kings and Queens of the states.
I really don't care about Tara, I find her completely annoying. Eggs bites, accidentally shot by Jason, and the subsequent coverup as Andy takes responsibility. Hey, it's just a cop killing a dude. Tara, of course, goes off the deep end, she is the most annoying, unstable character in the entire series.
The most interesting part of this season was learning more about Eric.
We also FINALLY know what Suki is, to which her response is: How f-cking lame. I agree Sookie.
Again, another cliffhanger, but that's the MO. I think the only reason I moved onto the 4th season was to figure out where Sookie actually went. Luckily, the 4th season is much better.

My new favourite superhero!!
Wonder Woman continues to try and protect Zola and her baby, but Zola is kidnapped by Hades (Cake-Head?). The price of Zola's Liberty is marriage between Hades and Diana. Of course. There are lots of twists and turns, Hera gets involved again (of course), various things backfire and we're left on another cliffhanger at the end - all ready for volume 3!!
I'm enjoying these, and will probably have at least the next 2 volumes on my Christmas list!

Beans and Chianti
Hopkins and Foster deliver a suspenseful thriller about a serial killer who is helping the FBI in tracking down the daughter of a US senator who has been kidnapped by and unteachable serial killer. The solo interactions between FOster and Hopkins get under your skin cause they are so dark at times. Hopkins character leaves such and impression it makes us want more and the movie does spawn 3 more movies about Hannibal Lechters life
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2200 KP) rated Percy Jackson and the Titan's Curse: Bk. 3 in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When Percy Jackson's friend Annabeth is kidnapped, he heads to San Francisco to try to free her. But with the Titan's involved, will he make it out alive? This is the third in the Percy Jackson series, and the adventures are still mostly self-contained while building toward something big. I'm enjoying the ride and anxious to see where it all leads.

Mar 9, 2018
Ricky and his friends are excited to be extras in the new Jericho Stone movie, that is until they arrive in LA and are immediately kidnapped. So why does Jericho say it was a mistake? And why are the kidnappers hanging around the set? Another wild ride with great characters that will keep readers of all ages turning pages.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2200 KP) rated Madness at Moonshiner's Bay (Accidental Detectives, #8) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The Accidental Detectives are off to Disney World, only their trip is interrupted when Ricky, Joel, and Lisa are kidnapped and trapped on an island guarded by an alligator. Can they figure out what their captor's want? Definitely one of the more suspenseful books in the series, but still so very good. My feet get clammy just thinking about some of the scenes.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2200 KP) rated Dog on It (A Chet and Bernie Mystery #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Chet and Bernie attempt to track down a girl that has been kidnapped. Unless she ran away. What makes this series unique is that it is told from the point of view of Chet, a dog. That was mostly cute, although occasionally it fell flat. The plot could have used some rearranging as well, but overall I enjoyed it.
