Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated These Wicked Waters in Books

Dec 31, 2019

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
I thought this was a really cool take on the little mermaid story. I have no idea if that was intentional because this book is about sirens not mermaids but there are definitely parallels.

I really like Annie's family issues. They informed a lot of her character and explained a lot.

It was a bit slow at first but once it gets going it does not stop. This could easily be a stand alone but I'm really hoping for a sequel!

Bostonian916 (449 KP) rated Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019) in Movies

Jun 27, 2020 (Updated Aug 18, 2020)

I feel like this movie was unapologetically thrashed by critics for things that it wasn't responsible for. That's not to say that the movie didn't have it's own issues, as all films do. But the vile hatred that it received for stories told decades ago was unwarranted and frankly disappointing.

Truthfully, there is enough going on in this movie that can be faulted that it didn't need to have old news rehashed (I'm talking to you weird Palpatine). But again, as a stand alone film it was quite good. And as the finale to the Skywalker saga, it did it's job.

Feb 23, 2021

Such a cute series of books!!
I always love going back to cross roads (each series is a stand alone) but they all have interconnections if that makes sense :)
Each of these Authors brings a unique story to the table, they all have different ways of showing emotions, character mentalities, and creative stories. I truly enjoy reading their stories and connecting with their characters.
I recommend putting this series on your To Be Read list.
I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback, the thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

Once I put my other books aside and concentrated on this I found it a really easy read; the chapters are short and there is always something to keep you interested.

I really enjoyed it.

I think without that Epilogue, it could have been a stand alone story but because of it, I understand more about it being a trilogy. I believed that end bit! I was feeling quite happy and relieved for the Gladers. More fool me!

I have the second and third book but I'm not going to read them just yet, maybe when I get back off holiday
