Kate (496 KP) rated Murder Around The Corner in Books
Jul 15, 2020
I prefer books to be a bit longer - it wasn't really long to even get into.
It's a crime genre which I love but it was too short to real be much of a crime book that I would normally read.
Giving a review on a short story is not easy as I didn't see the characters grow and story didn't really go anywhere.
I wouldn't read the second book in series.
I would recommend to someone who losses interest quickly or doesn't like reading a long book.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer (Mara Dyer, #1) in Books
Sep 5, 2019
This book has sent me cartwheeling through so many feelings: intrigue, horror, indifference, happiness but I can't say that, in the end, I understood the story. I didn't get it.
Why could Mara do these things? Was she the cause of the asylum collapse? What about Noah? What happened to the building they were after?
Admittedly from about the 25% mark to about 70% I was enjoying the story but then I just got really confused when Noah confessed his secret. I had no idea what that had to do with the rest of the plot.
Not really to my liking. I wont be continuing the series.

David McK (3832 KP) rated The Marvels (2022) in Movies
Feb 25, 2024
(Despite one or two good entries since).
If so, IMO they've just hit a new low.
It probably doesn't help that you're almost required to do a lot of 'homework' (movies and TV series that introduce the key characters) prior to watching this (I have), with that knowledge all but assumed by Marvel and with no real fill-in given for those who haven't.
It's not all bad, though, Iman Vellani is infectious as Kamala Khan fan-girling out over Captain Marvel, while the mid credit tease is probably one of the best since the original from 2008s Iron Man.
David McK (3832 KP) rated Agatha All Along in TV
Nov 8, 2024 (Updated Nov 8, 2024)
As the show starts, she is still in Westview and still under the Scarlet Witches spell, but it's not long - tail end of the first episode - before she is free of said spell, and travelling down the heretofore believed to be mythical Witches Road in search of her lost power in the company of several others, including Joe Locke's Teen and Aubrey Plaza's Rio Vidal, both of whom have connections to Agatha's past life in particular ...
