Dean (6926 KP) rated The X Files: I Want to Believe (2008) in Movies
Jan 6, 2018
Not got the X factor
I was a big fan of the TV series but missed some of the last two series. This is definitely set after the end of the last series, both agents are now doing other work and are no longer in the FBI, until they called upon to help with an X file type case. This could be viewed as a stand alone film on it's own if you never saw any of the TV series (Really?!) However it just plays more like an extended episode and not really the type of story line the fans want to see in a X files film. It's ok but wont satisfy fans that loved the show so much.
Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated Blue Labyrinth (Pendergast, #14) in Books
Feb 21, 2018
NOTE: If you haven't read anything in this series yet, Blue Labyrinth might not be the best place to start. There are returning characters from previous novels, and reading some of the earlier books (especially Relic, #1 in the series) will make this one even more enjoyable.
I love revisiting old friends and old places in this series, and the New York Museum of Natural History is by far my favorite place in Pendergasts New York. Blue Labyrinth opens with a dead body in the museum, and Margo Green called in to assist with the police investigation. Full of danger and Pendergast family drama, this installment moves along at an incredible pace, and is a great addition to the series.

Third one in the series was a Home-Run!
I completely love The Prisoner of Azkaban from the beginning to the end. There is something about the structure of the plot and the storyline that just works. This is the movie int he series that really starts to flesh out the over-arching story of the series. You get a glimpse of the point of the whole thing in the first two movies but this one brings in the characters and the decisions that drive the rest of the story for the next 4 installments. Besides all that, the young stars of the series have grown into actual young adults in this one and they are showing off how good their acting is going to become.
OneStarReads (141 KP) rated The Miserable Mill (A Series of Unfortunate Events #4) in Books

I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:
Ah this book... I'd say it's one of the worst in the series. Book 3 made me realize that this series was only following a template, but this book... It was the one that made me aware of the little sprout of annoyance I had towards this series, growing inside me. The template was bad enough, but now we could top it off with sudden character changes, inconsistent storytelling, and just a boring book all around. I complain a lot about this book in my spoiler video, and for good reason...

MelanieTheresa (997 KP) rated Leverage In Death (In Death, #47) in Books

Always a pleasure, the In Death series is hands down my favorite series of books in any genre. It's like going back to old friends with each new installment. By the 47th book, you know the quirks and eccentricities of each character, from over-the-top Mavis to Galahad the cat, and you can't wait to "see" them again.
Leverage in Death, while a great addition to the series, featured a central plot which felt a bit clunky to me. It was appropriately horrifying, but a bit convoluted - not nearly as streamlined as past installments in the series. The characters, as I said, are always interesting, and it's their interactions with each other that make this story work.
All of that said, I'll be eagerly awaiting #48!
