Brillance

I love this anime!
It is a brilliant, well thought out, comprehensive series with no end of twists and turns in the plot. In comparison to the original Fullmetal Alchemist, The Brotherhood series follows the Manga and flows a lot better than the original.
The series both follow the tale of Edward and Alphonse Elric as the journey to find a way to recover their bodies, Brotherhood however, in my opinion, covers a more fluid storyline with less plot holes.
I have to admit though that one of my favourite scenes is during the Fifth Laboratory when 66/Barry the Chopper reacts to Alhponse's lack of body despite his own lack of one.

RavenclawPrincess913 (253 KP) rated Finale (Hush, Hush, #4) in Books
Apr 30, 2019
Hush Hush Series by Becca Fitzpatrick
Finished: April 24th, 2019
This series was amazing and has a very emotional ending. I chose to read this series because it's about Fallen Angels. I love Patch's and Nora's relationship and all they went through I'm happy they got the happy ending they deserved. I cried when Patch was able to feel in the end but wish Scott's ending was better though and wished he had survived the war. I was not expecting Vee to be Nephil as well. Marcie's end was sad as well but I'm really glad it worked out for Patch, Nora and her mom in the end.
Do I recommend? Yes

This is the third book in the series about Freya and her sisters who have been turned into Frae by the cauldron as Freya and her mate and some friends continue their battle against the courts Lords to stop them destroying the human lands and being humans and Fae together. Freya discovers that destroying the cauldron doesn't stop the deaths and destruction happening and ends up forging the pieces back together. They lose their father in this part of the series though they find out that their father loves them even though they are now Fae. Not sure if there is going to be any more in the series. Very enjoyable YA book.

This is the third book in the series.
The book is very good, it answers some questions but definitely poses a lot more. It is possible to start to see some of the direction the series may take and who the key players are. Also to begin to make your own predictions and hopes.
It is good to see Talia and Erik continue to grow as people and their relationship evolving. They are both having to face the real world and the decisions they are making. They are also questioning what they are doing and why. The naivety of the previous books is gone.
I have really enjoyed this series and recommend it if you enjoy dystopia.

Very quickly becoming one of my favorite mystery/PI series.
I was a bit late coming to the Dan Reno series by Dave Stanton and I'll surely be catching up quickly! As a lover of both crime stories and TV shows, I'm left feeling like every book is like THE best episode of your favorite crime show. Never a dull moment, Dan's laid-back attitude has me laughing every time and I can't help but both laugh and shake my head at Cody constantly. Quick-paced, yet easy to follow, I couldn't put this one down and finished it in a day. Very quickly becoming one of my favorite mystery/PI series.

Have no clue how Ill make it waiting for the rest of this series..
My god, she did it again (although Im sure Ive said that before about Pepper's books!?)! AMAZING book! Dark, sick and twisted... just how I like 'em! ;-) I am a HUGE fan of Pepper's, love everything she writes and the Debt Inheritance series does NOT disappoint! I have been dying for months waiting for this book and devoured it in one day. All I can say is, "Thank god!?" Due to not wanting to share a spoiler- Ill just leave it at that.... Have no clue how Ill make it waiting for the rest of this series - I need it NOW!
Jessica Erdas (463 KP) rated The Killing Dance (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #6) in Books
Oct 4, 2018
I honestly think this book has been the best in the series. I'll repeat my normal complaint that the dialogue repeating from book to book and numerous grammatical errors are rather irritating but the story progresses very well. Pretty fast paced compared to some of the others so far. Not as predictable, although some aspects I called pretty early on. Not to mention, quite a bit more relationship progress. I'm a little torn with how it ended up but excited to read on. I had no idea when I started this series that there were already 27 in the series but I'm hooked enough to continue on.
BookwormMama14 (18 KP) rated Happily Ever After (The Selection, #0.4, 0.5, 2.5, 2.6) in Books

I read all of the novellas for The Selection Series in this book. There are some excellent illustrations and extras in this book. If you are as obsessed as I am about this series, I recommend this edition.
I recommend reading The Queen and The Prince BEFORE The Selection. The Guard AFTER The Elite. And the rest AFTER The One. There is also an excellent map of Illéa
I feel like all of these extra stories added to the depth of the series. They give us a glimpse into the hearts and minds of the other characters. This helped me appreciate those characters more as I look back and think of the story as a whole.

Dean (6926 KP) rated Scream - Season 1 in TV

A very good Slasher series
I finally got round to seeing this series. I'm a big fan of Scream so it's interesting to see how this compares. It's very good and feels like the film in many ways. Wes Craven was an executive producer, so that probably helped.
Self aware as always and even mentions the difficulty of doing a slasher series. It maintains momentum quite well. There are plenty of twists and red herrings as to who the killer is. Maybe could have been a couple of episodes shorter. Overall though if you are a fan of the film you should enjoy this.

This book and the previous in the series, The Mark Of The Raven are both amazing and I Love them!
The characters are great, their development and the romance - and I usually am not big on romance, slow burn. The inner turmoil and fight with good and bad choices was fantastic. Well developed, great story and plot and everything. I cant wait to read the next book or maybe reread the first two again.
This series is reminding me so much of Muirwood series by Jeff Wheeler that I LOVE so much!
If you havent checked this out, Get on it! You dont want to miss these fab books!
