Great first series, extremely dark
If you watch the first series DO NOT watch the second series which is a total let down in comparison. The partnership between Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson is absolutely stellar, acting at its highest level. The story is hideously dark, and the two actors, who are fatally flawed, are completely perfect for the role. It surrounds a serial killer who murders young girls in a cult-like fashion, and the coming together of these two detectives after many years to try and finally solve it. A really well done first series.

Slick cinematography, dark tales
This film's graphic novel style cinematography is original, effective and beautiful to behold. The black and white effect with certain colours highlighted reminded me of looking at old style comics. The multiple stories that mesh together are all extremely dark, from serial murders to molestation and exploitation, it's Rated R for a very good reason. And while the Tarantino style gore can be surprisingly easy on the eye especially in black and white, it seemed extreme at times, filmed for the sake of being violent.

This was so good, I really enjoyed it!! I liked how each chapter was told from the other person's perspective, either Edward or Zoey, and we got to see how each may have experienced the same thing on the same day but differently. This is a story of how two people losing their child have to grieve separately and kind of find out who they are again as individuals before they can come back together as a couple. It took them literally losing in each other in another country before they could truly appreciate what they had. Great read!

This was so good! I loved all the characters and how everyone tied to everyone else. I did not see who the killer was until the very end and that's one thing I love about stories about this, when they surprise me. I loved that Jules finally learned the truth about Nell and that she would have protected her if she knew and maybe things could have been different between them. I hope that her and Lena being together will help each other grow and heal. I can't wait for the next book by Paula Hawkins!!

World Building
WOW! Simply wow
Wow. That's the first thing that comes to mind when I think of this book. From the earliest pages the reader becomes drawn into the smallest pieces of the characters lives. When the world falls into absolute chaos upon the release of a deadly virus that wipes out the majority of the world, it becomes vital to bring together the survivors. With some of the typical "King" flair and some help from the super natural folks are drawn to good or evil. This is easily one of the best books ever written.

Unexpectedly good
Ok I wasn't sure I was going to like it. The beginning didn't endear me to the characters, and seemed a bit too far fetched even for a fantasy novel. However I kept reading and found myself not wanting to put it down. The author writes in a rich descriptive poetic style, very beautiful at times and when it's not, it's mildly funny and a little crude.
It certainly does not lack depth in any of the characters, which was what concerned me at the beginning. The plot is skilfully woven together and left me wanting more.

Great two player game
My wife and I love this game. The rulebook is simple, the options on you turn arent overwhelming, and the theme seems appropriate to the mechanics.
Play time per session is about 30 minutes including setup and tear down. We also upgraded this game with real buttons from the boardgamegeek.com marketplace, which adds better aesthetics over cardboard.
My wife has no complaints about the game, but I dont like that some pieces dont perfectly interlock with eachother.

I have been binge watching this with my mom and we both love the show. I'd heard from a few friends that the pacing is too slow and while I can see what they're talking about, I don't agree. I find the flashbacks and the ghost easter eggs as well as the ways the storylines are being brought together to be very satisfying. I really like that while it has them, it doesn't rely on jumpscares. The acting is hit or miss, but the main cast are all very talented. I would definitely recommend watching it, especially if you prefer old school horror.
