Mothergamer (1568 KP) rated Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch in Video Games
Sep 26, 2017
Fantastic fantasy role playing game
I love this game so much and I've played it twice. The story is quite good and the game play is a lot of fun. The artwork of the game is beautiful and the music for it is great. There are tons of side quests to do along with the main story and just exploring is a lot of fun. It's a wonderful game that is enjoyable to play.

Book Divas (227 KP) rated Return Me to Myself in Books
Dec 12, 2017
I received an ebook copy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This book had so much possibility however; I found myself getting confused during many parts of the story because the author themselves seemed confused when writing. I was completely thrown off by the fact that though her father sexually abused her she was more angry at her mother. This book was in need of proofreading before it went to print. A few typographical errors is one thing but this book seemed to be plagued by many. The book cover is absolutely beautiful. I don't recommend this book to any one.

Incredible cinematography (2 more)
Norman Bates is the ultimate villain
One of the first earl films to discuss mental illness
My favourite Hitchcock film
This Hitchcock film is astonishing for breaking boundaries. From being one of the first original horror movies, showing 'obscene' shower scenes, to discussing multiple personality disorder. From the first minute, the film is tense and the fact of what happens to the leading lady after 30 minutes is jaw-dropping. When Norman Bates is discovered, his final scene of becoming his mother is horrifying. One of the best Hitchcock films ever to have been made.

Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated My Secret Dog in Books
Apr 10, 2018
Didn't get the pet you wanted for Christmas and thinking of getting one and hiding it in the cupboard? In this story, a little girl "adopts" a dog, and doesn't tell her mother. Keeping it in the cupboard teaches her that not everything should be kept in there. When she finally admits to her mum about her pet a good chat teaches her about responsibility.
An enjoyable read, with illustrations that are simple and easily taken in, but may not be to everyone's appeal this book is a good way to bring up the subject of responsible pet ownership with younger children.

Dean (6927 KP) rated Incendiary (2009) in Movies
Apr 30, 2019
A touching drama as a young mother tries to cope with the loss of her husband and son in a terrorist attack. Ewan McGregor and Michelle Williams team up again shortly after Deception made around the same time. Williams gives probably her best performance to date. Although the film starts well, it seems to lose some direction in the second half. The ending was ok but from the first 30 minutes this could have been a much stronger film. As it is most people have probably not even heard of it? If you don't mind a drama you should enjoy this.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2346 KP) rated Cockatiels at Seven (Meg Langslow, #9) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When Meg agrees to babysit a toddler, she just thinks it will be for a few hours. So when the mother hasn't returned by that night, she begins to try to track her down. Naturally, the trail leads to scandal, and dead body, and laughs. I thought this book was stronger than the last couple in the series. The humor was sharper since it focused on the antics of the toddler, and the mystery was better.

Lindsay (1760 KP) rated The Bobbsey Twins on Blueberry Island (Original Bobbsey Twins #10) in Books
Feb 15, 2018
This a fun filled Classic. The kids in this book go to Blueberry Island and find a Mystery. Though before they do they are in a mystery before leaving.
The two sets of twins are independent and though they also follow though with listening to their father and mother. To start this book they see the caravans that they think that are a part of the curious well the little twins do. There father comes home to find out what the problem is in the street near this house.
This book is great for children and quite enjoyable. I would recommend it.
