I just love all the attention devoted to the characters in this book I just go away feeling conectded to them.
All the books in this series have captured my mind and my emotions.
The main character Eve is a hard cop from New York and likes being who she is now, her reluctant love for and loalty to the people in her life tuch you as you read her adventures.this book is very good at griping you and expanding your own loyalty to this series.
Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated King Kwong: Larry Kwong, the China Clipper Who Broke the NHL Colour Barrier in Books
Jan 12, 2018
[King Kwong: Larry Kwong, the China Clipper Who Broke the NHL Colour Barrier] by [Paula Johanson] is a short well written account of the struggle to make it into the NHL if you weren't of European decent. Larry Kwong was a very skilled player but only got to play one shift in the NHL. This did not dampen his love for hockey as he traveled the world spreading this awesome sport wherever he went. I wish I had this in a paper copy so I could give it to my students to read.
Glen Banyard (13 KP) rated John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019) in Movies
Jun 9, 2019
While the two previous chapters have solely been in New York, Chapter 3 adds Casablanca, and introduces more back story to John Wick.
If you are going for John Wick, it;s not about the depth of the story, one of franchises biggest positives is the stylish and skillful action sequences, John Wick 3 delivers in droves.
The film sets up for a Chapter 4, leaving us wondering what the baba yaga is bringing to us next.

humorous designs with a London theme ... and yes I have made a few of them.
The Pigeon Knitting Kit is perfect. Short needles and all you need to make your 1st London companion ... patterns written with fun, and suggestions to adapt them.
Before this I admit that even tho I have been knitting for over 30 years I had never really caught the in-the-round bug, but this book changed that, and I also got the authors followup book Stitch New York
For a learner this book would be a great addition after learning the basic skills. As with most knitting books there are instructions on how to knit. A fun addition to any crafters bookshelves.
James Koppert (2698 KP) rated Afro-Polo by A-F-R-O / Marco Polo in Music
Nov 7, 2019
Marco Polo brings that traditional boom bap New York sound, you know what you getting, business as usual and all good here. There is a song featuring Gift of Gab and RA the Rugged Man and that's a perfect reference point for A-F-R-O's flow, it's that scattered pin point accurate raps and if he keeps up this consistency on a few more releases he could be widely recognised in grandeur.
