Alison Pink (7 KP) rated The House of Hades (The Heroes of Olympus #4) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
Okay this book was without a doubt the best in the series to date! I absolutely cannot wait for the final book in the series...but I'm not looking forward to the idea that the coming novel may mean the last the literary world gets to hear from Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, & the rest of their friends. This book bounces back & forth between Percy & Annabeth's harrowing journey through Tartarus & the rest of the 7 as they venture through the ancient lands to try to find the Doors of Death on Earth. The book was in fifth gear from page one & didn't let up, even at the end so be prepared. Just like in the third book, the fourth one is left VERY much hanging. Riordan has turned himself into a master of suspense with his cliffhanger endings in this series! Kudos
Dean (6927 KP) rated Fast Five (2011) in Movies

Fast Five star! The series has gone full circle and this one breathes new life into the series which got stronger with the 4th installment and is bettered by this one! We have even more of the cast from the earlier films including Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson from the second. Not to mention another surprise cameo after the credits to hint at a 6th film!
This one goes from street racing to heist film, but there are plenty of big stunts, fights, sexy girls, humour, a cool soundtrack and of course a range of awesome cars. I love that there are so many ties with the cast and events to the previous films. The Rock is a great addition to the series as the extreme FBI hunter sent to capture them. You couldn't ask for more from an action film!

Not having read the first in this series, I really wasn't sure what to expect and I was pleasantly surprised.
This book is full of strong characters that grow on you as the story develops. They are a disparate bunch of people from various walks of life but they work well together. It did take me a while to get to grips with the story; it was quite confusing to begin with but I think that's because I haven't read the first in the series however, I stuck with it and found it quite absorbing the more it developed.
Full of action and tension, this is a good read and I look forward to reading more in the series so thanks to BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Twilight (Twilight, #1) in Books

I discovered this book/series right when I needed a good distraction from a really bad breakup. Picking it up, I had no idea it was about vampires, I just liked the front cover. Sure, it's not very well written, it's predictable, and it's kind of lame. But, it'll always hold a special place in my heart.

It took me a while to get in to this book. I'm not sure why. It is well written and the characters have dimension. The idea of a story written entirely as a series of letters to Richard Gere was intriguing but in the end I think that's why I had a tough time getting in to the story.
Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Blue Lily, Lily Blue (The Raven Cycle, #3) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
Well first I have to say that there is obviously going to be another book in the series. And if there's not then there's a problem. I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first couple. The middle was slow. In fact I didn't think the story really got interesting until the last quarter of the book.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2664 KP) rated Evans Above (Constable Evans, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
This great series begins when Constable Evan Evans finds two bodies outside his small village. While it's not his job, he begins to investigate. The small village charm and great characters draw you into the story.

Fun Christian Romance
I’m usually not a romance person. Mainly because I don’t want to read about sex. I would rather the story continue. That being said, I love this Christian Romance series! The mystery of Regina’s grandmother kept me hooked, the romance between the characters developed slowly, and there were spiritual overtures scattered throughout the story.
