I buddy read this book with a friend, blindly picking it up on a shopping trip with no prior knowledge of the author, or wattpad honestly. The story was fun, and a great fast paced thriller for spooky season. The writing style was easy to follow, and everything moved pretty quickly, sometimes too quickly, but I'd rather have that than constant slow pauses. I will say the most heart pounding action for me was in the last chapter or two. Things got really good, really fast, just to end as quickly as it started. The ending feels open to a potential sequel, so maybe we'll see more in the future. Overall, great pace, fun story, and an ending that left me shocked and confused. 🤣

Variety of worlds
Yoshi !
Love It!!
I initially tried the demo for this game and loved it instantly so bought it that day. Never played a Yoshi game before.
Theres a large range of levels which are variable in styles of worlds, but tend to be of a crafted paper nature. Each level has a usual level and then a flip side playing the level end.
Controls are the usual Mario style of jumping and bouncing off heads of enemies. You collect coins, red and gold, and also flowers.
You can chose a coloured Yoshi and you can use your collected gold coins to buy outfits for Yoshi.
This is a fab game for the traditional platform gamers.

Atlantic Records recording artist Wilder Woods is back with a new single and music video to promote his upcoming debut LP. Electric Woman features a retro-soul melody combined with a slinky electronic groove, yielding a raw and understated homage to the female form delivered with a signature throwback-flair.
The music video stars Bear Rinehart’s wife, Mary Reames Rinehart, and gives listeners a peek at what real chemistry looks like between the young and beautiful. The canyons at sunset create a wistful backdrop for this exploration of honeymoon love, while Wilder Woods again joins his love of classic style with modern sounds, extending a perfect moment into the ether of collective experience. We are there also, dancing under the stars with our beloved.

An insight into another culture
A strong writing style and gripping story
Even though the story itself may seem far fetched, Kirino writes in a way that captures the bleakness and monotony of the women's lives and makes everything they feel, say and do seem so relatable and real that you don't question their motives or seemingly unrealistic decisions.
One of my favourite things about this book was portrayal of uncomfortable family dynamics and the odd state of limbo these women lived in, professionally and personally - something like looking into a window on another culture and generation.
It's a story that manages to be shocking, gruesome, almost inhuman but still somehow so comparable to our own world.

Lenard (726 KP) rated Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019) in Movies

Yesterday, I saw the movie based on the series of short story collections that inspired future makers of horror. It affected me so deeply that I decided to skip a Rifftrax screening. The actual film collects multiple horror tropes: haunted house, creepy hallways, reanimated corpses, spiders, supernatural serial killer, books. Most of the stories startle, but never terrify. The creature designs are phenomenal. The ending is kind of a letdown after all the thrills. However, one story completely disturbed me. Not the story or the creature, but the style. It used a lot of anticipation and narrative, but never showed much of the horror. It just built up tension and had one huge scare leading to a horrifying "ending" for one of the characters.
