Ross (3284 KP) rated Parks and Recreation - Season 2 in TV

Jul 26, 2018

A much longer series of half-hour episodes following the Parks dept's daily struggles with and against the public. The pit and park development that took centre stage in the first series is just a footnote here, as each episode is more of a self-contained story. While for me it isn't laugh-out-loud funny, the quirky comedy and occasional slapstick moments is first class. Moments that feel quite ad-libbed add to the comedy.

I remember not being a big fan of season 1 but felt that season 2 is where it really found its feet. Ended up being one of my favourite shows ever by the end of it's last season

Ross (3284 KP) rated The Affair - Season 4 in TV

Aug 24, 2018

Back to form here in the 4th series as the families attempt a fresh start, but the personalities involved, and their failings, move with them and similar things happen. Some real heart-wrenching moments as the cast deal with loss, tragedy and upset in more extreme ways than before.
A real sad final few episodes but excellently delivered. One major issue left open at the end, if there is no 5th series to address it I may well riot.

MoMoBookDiary (20 KP) rated Murder at Hawthorn Cottage (Melissa Craig #1) in Books

Oct 1, 2018

MoMoBookDiary enjoyed this murder mystery.

The first in the series on Melissa Craig. I am looking forward to reading book two next.

It is an ideal summer holiday (beach) read, with a writer-cum-sleuth trying to solve a murder which was committed in the vicinity of her new home - Hawthorn Cottage.

Set in a quaint little village - Ideal for fans of Agatha Raisin series

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this cozy mystery..

I adore this series of books, Rachel Caine is a very talented author. I love how different the vampires in her series act from the ones in other books I've read, they're not to be admired and loved, they're to be feared. The main character Claire is definitely how you'd imagine a begrudged hero if the day and the relationships built between all the characters makes you feel like you're part of it as you read.

Penultimate book to an amazing series.

Well I am an avid Harry potter fan. I have read all the books too many times to count and have them on audiobook too. This is the second to last book in the series and is when this start getting more and more action filled as Voldemort is growing in power and Harry is starting to discover the horcruxes that he needs to distribute with the help do dumbledore and his friends.

Finally, a return to the way vampires should be- monsters that go bump in the night rather than brooding romantic interests. If you like your vampires scary rather than sexy, this show is for you.

I adored the book series this show is based on, and it took me a couple of episodes to accept the changes that had been made. I hope this gets a second series and they delve deeper into the issues raised in the novels.
