Cumberland (1142 KP) rated The Tea Dragon Society in Books
Feb 17, 2019
Extremely Cute
This is the story of a young girl who is learning the dieing art of taking care of tea dragons. This book is adorable. I for one would definitely keep a tea dragon for a pet. I also enjoyed the art style. It has a really clean look to it, and it matches the story.

Feb 17, 2018 (Updated Jun 30, 2019)
A fairly average, slow to get going horror. It's basically an Exorcism version of Blair Witch. I didn't know in advance it was done in the style of a documentary. Does get a bit creepy later on, odd ending to which didn't seem to explain it all. Some will like that, others will be annoyed by it!

I adored this short story and the cover is incredible! I love fairy tales and legends so this was well and truly perfect for my style.
Such stunning, vivid imagery. It reminded me of Gaiman's writing throughout, beautiful and terrifying all at the same time.

Head to head battle system
Super Innovative 2 person handheld game, it's head to head dogfighting that easy to travel with.
This is such a novel idea, and I love the leather covers, the old style drawings and illustrations. It's not too difficult, and not that deep, but it's fun thing to pick up and play.

I hadn't heard of this movie until I took a Decolonization of Africa history class at university. I have to admit, I kind of disliked that class, until we watched this movie.
The documentary style is fantastic, it's gritty and feels raw. The Battle of Algiers is a good example of now a familiar, modern warfare.

One of the classics in board games, a great gateway into the euro style games. This app is a good one.
This is a great simple game, Millions of board game lovers became board gamers from this game (along with Settlers of Catan, and Ticket to Ride) Give it a try.

Wonderful Story!
This book is hilarious from the first page to the last! The story of Arthur Dent and unfortunate events that lead up to him traversing the galaxy grab the reader! If you enjoy Science Fiction, humor, and a writing style akin to Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, definitely give this a read.
I really LOVED this book. I've been on a poetry/verse style kick lately so this caught my eye immediately. The flow of the story worked really well and the illustrations added a lot to it. I learned a lot, and I found it hard to put down. I would love to see more like this.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated The Ocean at the End of the Lane in Books
Jul 10, 2018
This was an enjoyable read. It was pure, simple, and wonderful.
The characters did lack some depth, yet I felt that it was more of a writing style and not lack of writing skills. The story took place when the main character was young and therefore it felt simple.
I liked how different this novel was.
