Great place to read free manga!
Manga Hub is a great app that allows you to read free Manga. There are a ton of titles to choose from that get updated regularly, if they're not a complete series. You can check your history for a list of titles that you have been reading, and there will be a tag that denotes a new update if there is one. The pages are usually scanned clearly, and while the translations sometimes aren't 100% perfect, they are very close. You won't lose the meaning at all. You'll love this app if you want to read manga! It's so easy to use!

It is like you are actually in the book
I bought this book in Asda as part of a 2 for 7 deal when it first came out. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. I felt like I was transported into the book and was travelling with Jess during his adventures

Two of my favourite characters are Morgan and Wolfe because they each bring their own elements into the story.

I am currently reading the fourth book in the quadrology and would say it is on par with the Harry Potter series as my favourite books ever!

I am always excited for a new Rockton novel. This one did not disappoint. The action picks up immediately after the end of the last novel making the series run seamlessly. We get to find out a bit more about Casey, Rockton and its residents, which is a rich source material that author Kelley Armstrong knows how to utilize. Learning about Casey’s family was interesting although, in one of the very few issues with these books, it seems unbelievable that her parents would have behaved a certain way being “scientists” and considering themselves “overachieving medical geniuses”. Either way, Kelley Armstrong can do no wrong in my opinion. A must read!!

Discovered this on Amazon Prime and hadn't heard of it before now. There is only one season consisting of six episodes and yes I did binge watch them in one day. Martin Shaw is the main character playing a priest who carries out exorcisms. The story does run through all six episodes and it does finish at the end of episode six. Not sure how season two would be played out as the story did finish. You don't get all the special effects in today's films and TV series but it is still compelling and makes you think. Also what lady can resist Martin Shaw.
  
If, by and large, books can be compared to food - the classics being haute cuisine; the terrible books being dog-food - then the X-Wing series of Star Wars books (all written pre-Episode One, and based on the popular LucasArts games) could probably be best described as fast food: enjoyable enough in small doses but you wouldn't want to live on them and not always that memorable.

With regard to this book, which picks up from the end of Timothy Zahn's "The Last Command" (with the ending of that novel shown from a different perspective), it's also more than half way through before the jacket blurb begins to make sense.

Unexpected ending
This show had me hooked and I binged watched it in 2 days (there are only 7 episodes). Someone said it was similar to lost when they first started watching it. It had twist and turns in it that I did not see coming. The story line was great and when watching it it made sense more and more why things were happening and what people were doing.
The ending was so unexpected to me and I was disappointed it was finished as I wanted to see what else happened with the remaining cast.
I would definitely watch the second season should there be one.
Netflix series.
