A little slow and boring at times, and the author's style didn't always agree with me: She would put you in the middle of a conversation and it just felt weird.
Otherwise it was great to learn more about Alzheimer's Disease and how to be more loving to those with this debilitating sickness.
Wish I could rate it 3.5 stars.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2099 KP) rated Hush Now, Don't You Cry (Molly Murphy, #11) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Molly and Daniel are off on their honeymoon, but their dream trip to Newport turns bad when Daniel gets sick and the family of the estate where they are staying shows up. And that's before the body appears. I always enjoy spending time with Molly, and sickness certainly softened Daniel. But I felt the climax to the mystery was weak.

A bachelor goose must form a bond with two lost ducklings as they journey south.
This may have dented my love of children's films just a little bit.
A cat with a split personality and some fairly difficult to love characters were only part of my problem with this film. It was a predictable and not nearly entertaining enough to make up for that fact.
However the worst bit was the opening sequence. Everything is done so fast that it's almost impossible to work out what is actually going on, and worse for me, it set off my motion sickness.

Bookapotamus (289 KP) rated Angela's Ashes (Frank McCourt, #1) in Books
May 25, 2018
Angela's Ashes was an extremely heavy, tragic but touching memoir peppered with humor and emotion and love. Frank McCourt is a master at telling stories, but this memoir of his Irish Catholic family, spans so many subjects, so creatively and so beautifully - from family, to love, religion, sickness, abandonment, poverty... The hardship that immigrants had to go through is heartbreaking - as is their strength, and will to survive and make better lives for themselves. So much emotion after reading this. I don't know if this story will leave me for awhile. Definitely something for the mature reader, and definitely something that stays within you.
