Short gameplay
I won this game in a Smashbomb giveaway and m my family has really enjoyed playing it. It's easily adaptable between 2 and 4 players. We laugh about the cards and have a great time.
Gameplay is short enough to hold the attention of my kids. They don't even get upset when they lose like they do with other games. It's a new favorite for sure. The only down side is that i wish the deck was just a little bigger... but I can always buy the expansion.

Interesting concept
Funny
Loved this book. So easy to get into and made me laugh out loud quite a few times! My only problem is how short it is! I know there are sequels which are just as good, but I still would love to read more of it. Would definitely recommend to anyone who doesn’t have much time to read or anyone who just wants a good laugh. It’s been years since I last read it, I think it might be time to read it again!
Irene M (130 KP) rated And I Thought Divorce Was Bad: With Other Life Lessons in Books

I received this book for free for an honest review.
A collection of poetry, words of wisdom and short stories, all surrounding the subject of a relationship gone wrong, and through the healing process. After a short prologue poem the first item of prose is called “A Shiner” … a hard hitter in more way that one.
There was one or two small grammatical things I saw, but that's just me being a bit picky as it was not enough to take away from the heart-string pulling writing.
Well worth a read

Quick to set up and play (1 more)
Games are usually very short.
Board game for beginners
Tsuro, a game I first found out about from Tabletop episodes. This game is very much as advertised there, easy to pick up and play, and can be a bit of a laugh when you outplay others.
I very much enjoy this game, and I think the casual nature can lead much to desire, however there are times when I would like a more longer and intense game then the 5 minute short bursts.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Scars and silks 1 (The calvetti family #6) in Books
Jan 6, 2019
fantastic short read
This is the first book in this set but the sixth book in this series. This is a mafia story. This is a quick, hot and steamy, easy to read book which you will read in one sitting. This book has a cliffhanger ending so be warned, you will need part two as soon as you've finished this book. Amazing well written characters. I can't wait to read part two in this set.
Highly recommended short read
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

David McK (3496 KP) rated Orcs (Orcs: First Blood, #1-3) in Books
Jan 30, 2019
Takes an interesting perspective on the good old fantasy troupe of the Orcs, telling the tale from their perspective rather than having them as the antagonists. All three novels (and the short story), however, are pretty linear in the telling: battle here, move on a bit, battle here, move on a bit, skirmish here, despite the somewhat tacked on religious sub-plot.
In short, a simple, undemanding read, but not as effective (or as funny) as Mary Gentle's "Grunts", which also tells the story from the point of view of the Orcs.

Silence is golden
I've heard great things about this after missing at the cinema as the premise didn't really grab me at first. It's a unique, original horror film with barely any dialogue! The creatures do look good but it's the human emotions that rise up in the film that leave a lasting impression. Only down side is it is a bit short with a very simple plot. The ending could have been a little better as well. Overall though a great original horror that scares with built up tension.
