Gets me where I need to go
This is the primary app I use to get me places. I sometimes travel for work so having this app has been a lifesaver. If there's a wreck or traffic issue coming up on my route, it automatically recalculates and gives me directions to go around it. All I need is the address of my destination and it will take me right to where I need to go. Let's not forget to mention the voice is very soothing when she's giving directions out loud. This is very handy when I'm in Georgia which is a hands off device hands free state. The only issue I have with it sometimes is when the road in trying to go on is closed or it tells me to do a u turn where there are signs visible that says to not do a u turn. But if I just keep driving or go a different way, it will automatically recalculate the route for me and gets me back the way I need to go. It does creep me out when I have GPS location services on and my phone asks me to rate and review what ever place I was at or drove by. But that can be stopped by turning off the location services GPS feature. This replaced the MapQuest website and it is also a good companion to fill the quiet when you are on road trips by yourself.
Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Dead Until Dark (Sookie Stackhouse, #1) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
DNF @ page 80/326.
I've been reading this 10 days and only gotten 80 pages in, which just shows how much i wasn't enjoying this considering i finish most paperbacks in about 5 days. I only wanted to read this because of True Blood--I've only seen the first series of the show, and wasn't too impressed with that either--and sometimes i think the books are better than the shows/films but this book was so slow moving and the way it was written--so southern--was starting to grate on me. Sookie was annoying me and Bill seemed like the kind of vampire to run off from, not rescue and take on a date.
Not for me at all.

Jennifer Daniell (108 KP) rated Ibotta: Cash Back Rewards App in Apps
Apr 17, 2018
Ibotta is an app that gives you cash back on grocery items through scanning a receipt after purchase. They have certain items each week that you can earn from. You can't cash out until you reach a certain $ amount and if you let your account go inactive for a while (ie don't redeem any receipts) they take the money you've earned back, which really ticks me off.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2171 KP) rated The 5th Horseman (Women's Murder Club, #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The women's murder club take on two cases. The first involves either murder or medical malpractice at a hospital. The second involves murdered women being left in expensive cars. Both were good stories, although the climax was so bad it killed much of the enjoyment for me.

New take on old theme (1 more)
Dreamy, 80s quality
Hope it's not following me
I really enjoyed this movie. Nowadays, it takes more than a jump scare and some blood to get me to hop out of my seat and pay attention. I need atmosphere and creep factor and this movie delivered.
The old "killer goes after those that have sex in a horror movie" rule gets turned on its head with a new and, dare I say it, modern perspective.
I loved the eclectic, old Polaroid quality of each shot, giving the movie a retro vibe while being futuristic at the same time -- setting the movie in no exact time frame.

Mar 9, 2018
Trixie and her friends take a trip to Missouri, where Trixie finds some stranger papers in her hotel room's garbage can. Soon, someone is following them. What do the symbols on the paper mean?
I'm torn on this one. It was my introduction to the series, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. The fast moving and suspenseful plot captivated the 7th grade me and introduced me to life long friends. However, reading it as an adult, boy to all the characters do some pretty stupid things.
