Heather Heath (18 KP) rated Star Trek: Discovery in TV
Apr 19, 2019
Its an ok show. I grew up whatching the original series, TNG, Deep space 9, and the other Two series. Seen all the movies. (Step dad and husband big Star Trek fans) The show could be better if they allowed more characters development to the other characters. And it almost becoming predictable. Like what is Michelle Bernum going to on this episode? This is suppose to be Star Trek not the Michelle Bernnum show
Awix (3310 KP) rated Godzilla 2000 (1999) in Movies
Mar 17, 2018 (Updated May 30, 2019)
Not quite the two-thousandth Godzilla movie, though it might feel that way to non-fans of this kind of thing. Aliens who've spent sixty million years asleep at the bottom of the sea wake up and try to steal Godzilla's DNA; things do not go according to plan, with bad results for everyone (except perhaps Godzilla himself).
The first Japanese movie to follow the reviled American Godzilla reboots the series again; you would have thought this was a splendid opportunity for Toho to show just how this sort of thing should be done. Alas no: there are some good bits here, and baddie monster Orga is quite impressive (though not in the film for long enough), but the film has the usual problem of not seeming to be that interested in Godzilla himself - it's not clear whether Godzilla is meant to be anti-hero or antagonist, either. Some duff CGI on display, too. Rather than being a showcase for the series, this is a dull and derivative movie that's not especially interesting to look at.

Most of the book was predictable, but not in an annoyingly overbearing way. While I enjoyed it, there were moments that were so abrupt, I kind of felt like sentences had been removed. This was interesting enough that I read it in one sitting, but I'm still contemplating whether or not to continue the series.
Dean (6927 KP) rated Killing Eve - Season 4 in TV
May 1, 2022
Not at the same level as previous series (1 more)
Silly surreal episodes
Oh dear Eve
I didn't think there was going to be a 4th series after the ending of the 3rd. After watching this maybe they should have stuck at 3. It's not at the same level as the previous series, not as witty, funny and feeling a bit rushed towards the end.
The first few episodes are very odd and a bit surreal and don't fit in. After getting back on track of finding out more about the 12 it then all comes to a very quick conclusion in the last couple of episodes. Still has some funny scenes and a bit more back story to some characters. Overall though a 4th series we didn't need.

starwarsluvr (236 KP) rated When Aliens Weep: An Alien Apocalyptic Saga in Books
Jan 30, 2018
Omg... so much to say and yet no idea what to say. This series has been an amazing whirlwind from the beginning.. I am not even sure if this is the last book or not... it has an amazing ending that leaves it like it could be done..but also like another could come about. The characters I loved even when they were doing stupid things like betraying the others... I loved the plot and the ups and downs. So much I still wonder about but overall it answered so many questions and wonderings I had during the series. I loved this so much. Amazing
starwarsluvr (236 KP) rated The Trail of Terror: Horror at the Lake (A Vampire Tale #2) in Books
Jan 30, 2018
This one was just as good as the first even though it was a lot different from the first. Not as much humor in this one as the first but just as much amazing plots. The twists and problems that came for Susan were very interesting. I loved the fact that not everything was easy now that she was a vampire. I felt bad for her in many places because of the other vampire doing what they were doing to her, but loved that she fought back. Very good author and series. Big thank you to the author for picking me to read and review this series.

Ok, can I just gush about this cover? That was the first thing that caught my eye! I have a soft spot for combat and working dogs, so naturally after reading the summary I had to request this. Normally I do not go for suspense but this had great buildup and lots of twists and turns! This book slightly reminds me of D.D. Ayres's K-9 Rescue series as they are both suspense romance around a working dog. Really can not wait for book two.

TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Hope in the Mountain River (Call of the Rockies, #2) in Books
Feb 23, 2021
I have to say that the description of this book does not do it justice.
Hope in the Mountain River is book 2 in Misty M. Beller’s Call of the Rockies series. This book can be read as a standalone, although I recommend reading them in order as the first book sets the scene for this one. However, there are no loose threads and you can just read this one by itself if you choose too.
“This epic journey is not at all what she expected” is such an understatement

I loved this so much. I read this one not realizing it was a spin off from another series, but it wasn't necessary to read the other series first even though I do have a feeling I would understand some of the characters more if I had. However, it is NOT needed at all. Cain is so hott. He is a demon, he is sexy, and when he turns demon so much yummy. He has insecurities and jealousy. He loves his mate so much but is worried she won't want or need him so he takes his time. Olivia is amazing. She is so strong but thinks she isn't. She was sheltered because of her fear and needing her brother so much. She falls for Cain who is a demon and she is a werewolf so she isn't supposed to love a demon. They both have to work through so much just to be together including his issues and her brother. This is an amazing start to this series and thanks to reading this one I now need to read the other series before this one. I highly recommend this book if you love paranormal romance.
