Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2387 KP) rated A Penny for Your Thoughts (The Million Dollar Mysteries, #1) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Callie makes her living investigating non-profits for a living. Her latest case is supposed to just be a quick in and out before she gets a week's vacation until she finds the man she is giving the check to dead. Her boss asks her to investigate, and Callie finds herself in danger. The writing is a bit weak, but the plot more than makes up for it. I dare you to put it down anywhere in the last 100 pages.

Online Cards Against Humanity

Easy to get a game together. As you play you open up more and more cards and decks to play with. Nice way to pass an evening with friends both in the room and far from home.

A quick story: We had family in town. One of the nephews suggested we play Evil Apples. By the end of the night we had eight people playing in three different states. It was such a good family moment... based around horribly funny cards, thoughts and visual images that made some of us sleep badly - LOL.

Good job Evil Apples.

Merging sci-fi with religion might seem an odd combination, but this novel takes the approach what would happen if the Vatican had proof of extraterrestrial life, with that proof coming in the shape of two eloping aliens who have crash-landed in a small island of the coast of Ireland, just in time for the new Pope's Easter address when he is stumped for ideas.

While it raised a few smiles, it also unfortunately never really raised a chuckle or any deep profound thoughts: this, I found, to be the type of book to read, enjoy, and move on.

Being inside Joe's head, it's done so well you sort of end up rooting for him..... (0 more)

LOVED IT!!!!!

Found this on Netflix and gave it a try. I was hooked after the first episode and binge watched all the way through. I love the thoughts from Joe's head giving reasonings for killing and kidnapping.... the way it comes across I often found myself thinking "I can see his point" and found myself rooting for the bad guy.....not sure what this says about me🤣🤔. Definitely worth a watch and I will be re-watching.

Movie Rating

As a massive fan of war movies I was expecting a lot from this one.
Unfortunately throughout the varied and bloody action I felt a disconnect that somehow pulled me away from the story and made the whole story seem bland.
Mel Gibson was as usual good but not great here and as stated the action was ok, however the only connection I felt was with the helicopter medic and the trauma he suffers making the many heroic sorties to rescue the injured.
Overall not a bad film, I just cannot recommend it based upon my viewing thoughts.
