Zombies Vs. Unicorns

Book Rating

This is the first book to actually crack me up in years. Even if you don't like all the stories, everyone is bound to find at least a few they enjoy (even if you just read the zombie stories). The zombie stories range from creepy to romantic to just plain hilarious, and because they're short they're a great pick-me-up at the end of the day. Due to the mature nature of some of the stories I wouldn't recommend this book for anyone who has not yet entered high school.

LilyLovesIndie (123 KP) rated In the Hands of the Great Spirit: The 20,000-Year History of American Indians in Books

Nov 5, 2018

An amazing insight into the long history of the 'first Americans'. A great balance between detailed recounts of events, yet a broad enough stroke through the history to explain the major parts of the history for the last 20,000 years.

A wonderful book, concise yet still detailed, full of emotion and accuracy in the telling of the the tragic events, but not being too romantic over the good times either.

A must read for anyone interested in developing their knowledge of this remarkable group of people, true survivors and determined to control their own destiny.

"It is impossible to be unhappy while reading the adventures of Jeeves and Wooster. And I've tried." - Christopher Buckley

The above quotation sums it up pretty well, actually!

With a plot involving the usual romantic shenanigans that sees Bertie Wooster getting (unwillingly) engaged and then trying to get out of it, with it being up to Jeeves - as always - to sort matters out and bring the various of Bertie's friends back together again. This is the one with Edwin the boy scout, and with Wooster getting engaged to Florence Craye.

David McK (3702 KP) rated Right Ho, Jeeves (Jeeves, #6) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

Typically convoluted Jeeves and Wooster story, set in Brinkley Court and featuring Bertie's Aunt Dahlia (Travers), the newt-loving Gussie Fink-Nottle, Madeline Bassett, Tuppy Glossop and Angela Travers.

This is the also the one that has Wooster unintentionally getting Gussie Fink-Nottle roaringly drunk before the latter has to distribute prizes at a school assembly, alongside Wooster managing to get himself engaged (again) while trying to sort out romantic difficulties between some of his childhood friends.

Leave it to Jeeves to sort everything out by the end!

Hang in there!

Amazing program plenty to watch, you will have to hang in there though as it seems repetitive and slightly dull around season 6 same old story same old problems but it gets good again!!!

Sad story of a girl and her brother both lost as they have just lost both there parents, to add to there pile of problems Elena fall in love with a vampire, it gets worse it gets good in this romantic drama.

If your patient enough you might enjoy all 8 seasons!
