Erika (17789 KP) rated Codename: Sailor V, Volume 1 in Books
Sep 26, 2019 (Updated Sep 26, 2019)
Preface: I love all of the Sailor Moon mangas, so I will always rate them high.
The Sailor V series is supplemental to Sailor Moon, featuring Sailor V, who later becomes Sailor Venus. The first volume is the origin of the character, who's real name is Minako. Minako also meets a cat with a mark on the forehead, and becomes Sailor V.
If you love Sailor Moon, the Sailor V series is a must read.

This has been a truly amazing series. Violet has grown immensely over the five books and I have to say that it's been one of the better endings to a series I've read. I cried a lot over some bits, shed a lone tear or two over others and smiled a little at the end when everyone's ending became clear.
I would love to read more books by the author in the future.

Special series
When I started to watch this one, I was a bit sceptical I must say. But the second episode started to get me and after that, I was fully into it, trying to watch as many episodes in a row as possible. Very well worked story about an uneasy part of the history that actually helped saving many lives. It's gripping, it's entertaining and it's real;+)

One of my favourite Alice in Wonderland telling.

I love the concept of this series. When I first read it, I had just watched Tim Burtons adaptation and in the same way, I was enthralled! Jace creates such a fantastical world where, despite the horrific murders, I want to be there along with the characters! Just take my word for it, the rest of the series just gets better and better too!

Dana (24 KP) rated The Assassin's Blade: The Throne of Glass Novellas in Books
Mar 23, 2018
Oh my god. I really liked being able to see where Celaena came from in these five short stories.
I loved how all of the stories were connected. This was basically another novel in the series, so that got me all excited.
I had to read this before I got Queen of Shadows because I felt like I needed to be able to better understand Celaena's character even more than I did with reading the other three books.
Like always, Sarah J Maas's plot and character development were on point. There weren't very many slow parts in the plot line. The characters were very well fleshed out. I absolutely adored getting to learn about how Celaena and Arobbyn interacted. I think that was one of my favorite parts of the novellas.
The story does end about a year before the actual series begins, so it was really fun to be able to go back and see everything that had happened before knowing exactly what was going to happen later in the series.
I recommend this to anyone who has been enjoying the Throne of Glass series. Those of you who haven't started the series, do it. I don't think you will regret it. :)

A Step Down
I have seen a bunch of articles online talking about how bad Westworld Season 2 is and how this show has went off of a cliff amongst many other over-exaggerations.
Westworld Season 2 is in absolutely no way a bad series of television. Sure, it isn't as good as the first season, but what you need to remember is that Season 1 of Westworld is one of the best series of TV ever broadcast.
In my opinion, Season 2 was never going to be as good as it's predecessor and that's okay. It's still intriguing, exciting and well made and without spoiling too much, I thought that the way this series ended was pretty bold and rather refreshing.
The first half of the season has it's ups and down and (SPOILERS from the end of Season 1,) the presence of Sir Anthony Hopkins is sorely missed. However, there are moments of brilliance in every episode of this series, it's just unfortunate that they are sometimes surrounded by convoluted padding.
Overall, yeah it's not as good as series 1, but you know what? I still felt like it was a pretty great season of television and I am looking forward to what this show has to offer in the future.

Top-notch story telling (2 more)
Moves along at a great pace
Great voice & motion-capture acting
Uncharted: God of War
As I was playing this game, all I could think of was the Uncharted Series. Great stories, great cinematics, great game play. Now, I'm going to be honest, I am not a fan of the series. Not really into hack-n-slash. They bore me after a while & I wind up not finishing the game, as it gets too monotonous. But changing the game play to match the Uncharted series is brilliant! And it works so well. The learning curve is a little steep, with the ability to unlock new moves as you also upgrade your weapons.
At first I didn't like Kratos' son. I felt he was a little annoying & never used him in combat. But as the game progressed, I not only cared for him as a character, but as an intricate tool in my combat arsenal.
Each character is like a living being. You really feel for them. I attribute this to the acting & the writing. Like I say above, the story is top-notch. In fact, everything is top notch. If you're a fan of the Uncharted series and/pr the God of War series, then run out & get this.
