Alison Pink (7 KP) rated One For The Money (Stephanie Plum, #1) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
The first thought I have about this book is that it is a mystery that doesn't try too hard. The second thought would be that I can't believe I waited so long to discover Janet Evanovich & this series!!!
The characters are well developed & I found myself rooting for Stephanie Plum throughout the entire novel. She seems like someone you would want to know. She's funny & tough, but still manages to seem vulnerable without being all "girlie- girl." I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series!

Here the series starts to fragment into a number of threads, all of which are key to the plot of the whole series.
Tisamon takes his half-blood daughter to be trained as a weaponsmaster, these scenes being quite emotional yet thrilling.
The Wasp Empire continue to be as annoying as their insect namesakes.
Overall, this book is like a big game of capture-the-flag, with everyone trying to get their hands on the shadow box, a mystical implement of unknown powers (but if the Wasps want it it must be bad!).

For me this marked the end of the first part of the series, as a lot of loose ends are tied up and this could have ended the series as a whole.
There are a number of conclusive battles/conflicts and the interaction between Tisamaon and Felise leads to some excellent scenes.
The thrilling conclusion puts an end to the Wasps' onslaught across the lowlands and sets up the next set of books to follow.
There is a definite downturn in quality from this point onwards, but it does improve again later.

The Runelords Spoiler Free Review
If you liked The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan you will like this series. This is the first book in The Runelords Saga. It's a very good sword and sorcery high fantasy series with multiple perspectives and a unique magic system. This first book introduces and starts building the characters and world well and the action is just beginning. I have a feeling things are going to get rough through the rest of these books. Deffinately a highly recommended book in my opinion.

The plots in the Rachel Morgan series just keep getting even more intriguing. I am (just about) fully enjoying everything in these books; the only thing I'm iffy about is the Rachel/Ivy thing. I don't know what direction Ms. Harrison is taking it, but I sincerely hope she doesn't make Rachel her scion...or more. I think it would change the whole feel of the series for me. Otherwise, her books are fun, fast paced, and fascinating. I can't wait to read the next one! :)

Very good animated film
Contains spoilers, click to show
Usually in my opinion the first film in a series is the best. I feel that's true for the cars series. However this is still a great feel good film. Great for kids and adults. I love the addition of more characters and more environments beautifuly tweaked from reality to fit in to the alternate world of cars. It fits well with real life, with the retirement of all the race cars and the new intake of youth. Very entertaining with an underlayer of life lessons.

fab read
This is the seventh book in this series by this author. This book starts right after 'Until Harmony" finishes. This is a low angst, extremely hot and entertaining love story. Amazing well written characters with very intense chemistry between them. This is a fantastic addiction to this series. You will be hooked from the first page and left wanting more from this author. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Dean (6921 KP) rated The Walking Dead - Season 9 in TV
Apr 1, 2019
A very different season
After the tension of the previous couple of seasons, this one is very up and down. The biggest surprise was a huge jump in the time line early on in the series. As always there are big twists and a new group of baddies encountered. The series didn't really end on a big cliff hanger as usual. A mixed season with some good story lines but also a major shift in the overall feel of the show.

Weil does it again with another start to what looks to be a great series. We got the heroine who may be a tad think for some of the book. We have hot guys, a protector, and of course good friends to help along the way.
I will say the first half of the book was slow but if you push through it you get to the good stuff! You just have to hang in there! If you enjoyed any of Weil's other series make sure to check this one out as well!
