Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Lockout (The Alpha Group, #2) in Books
Jan 11, 2021
Well I have to be in the mood to read erotica and it seems I wasn't when I read this.
That's not to say it was bad because it isn't, I just sort of skipped through some bits and read others so that I got the gist but I cant say I got really into it.
Will still buy the third to find out what happens in the end of the trilogy.

I'm at a loss. Once again, I've ridden this roller coaster we call Never Never and, once again, I feel hazy. Silas' and Charlie's story is so riveting and confusing and beautiful. Now that I've finished the second part to this trilogy, I'm struggling not to be completely impatient while waiting for the final piece to this odd story. Colleen and Tarryn make one freaking amazing team and they've blown me away, again!

3.5 stars
Hmm...I expected this to end differently but considering it's a trilogy, I guess there wasn't any other way of writing it. Maybe it means that Tyler can clean up his act and make himself a better person for Eden to be with.
I thnk I'm interested enough in Tyler and Eden's romance to read the rest of the series.
P.S. I think Tiffani and Jake are perfect for each other.

David McK (3496 KP) rated Tales of the Jedi in TV
Nov 20, 2022 (Updated Nov 20, 2022)
Disney's latest (at the time of writing) entry in the Star Wars canon, this is a series of shorts - all about 15, 20 minutes long or so - that primarily follows two Jedi in particular (Dooku and Ahsoka), and so are all set prior to the events of the original trilogy.
Some of the animation is stunning, yes, but it's also the case that some of the shorts are better than others.

Wilder (Birds of a Feather #1) by Lena North
Wilder is the first book in the Birds of a Feather series, and it starts many, MANY years after The Dreughan Trilogy. Wilder has just lost her beloved grandfather and also learns more about her family. Some surprises were in store for her, and she struggles to deal with them all. Funnily enough, the biggest surprise was easy for her. The hardest was dealing with people she thought she knew, and finding out they had a whole other life that didn't involve her. With a whole new family to contend with, plus a love interest, there is a lot going on for Wilder.
First of all, the thing that I ADORED in this book was the appearance of Vilda, Sannah, and Troy! I loved how they made their appearance, and their appearances after. For me, it helped to wrap up their trilogy, and I loved every single time they were mentioned.
There is plenty of action in this story, and it is different from The Dreughan Trilogy. For a start, it is set in a contemporary time, not medieval. A whole new bunch of characters and abilities light the way, giving this series a great introduction in a well written story. There are some editing and grammatical errors, but nothing that spoilt my enjoyment of the story.
A great beginning to the series, and I can't wait to continue. Definitely recommended by me.

The Bandersnatch (199 KP) rated The Hobbit Trilogy (2015) in Movies
Nov 7, 2019
In Decembers of 2012, 2013 and 2014 the three movies of The Hobbit came out, The Hobbit: an unexpected journey, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and The Hobbit: Battle of the Five armies forming The Hobbit Trilogy. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayor and Newline Cinema each released part of the trilogy with Director Peter Jackson at the helm (he directed The Lord of the Rings trilogy too). The movies follow the book but have been expanded to include extra material from the Lord of the Rings appendices as well as having recurring characters from the Lord of the Rings Movies such as Gandalf (Sir Ian McKellen), Frodo Baggins (Elijah wood), Legolas (Orlando Bloom), Lord Elrond (Hugo Weaving), lady Galadriel (Cate Blanchett), Gollom/Smegol (Andy Sirkis) and Saruman (Sir Christopher Lee 1922-2015).
In my opinion whilst the movies were very good having pretty much been handled by the team who shot and produced The Lord of the Rings. It felt sort of stretched, I'm pretty sure they could have gotten away with having two movies maybe even just the one if they cut some of the extra material away. The Hobbit in my eyes was essentially its own story and having the extra material padding it up to three movies-whilst useful and giving us a glimpse of the world at large just clumped it a bit. Other than that it was a good set of movies and I'm grateful that the team behind the Lord of the Rings was behind these ones, kept a good thread of continuity going.

Awesome Sfx
Ties in well with the other films
A new lease of life for the Star Wars saga
Another great Star Wars film that links nicely with A new hope. Probably the best film I saw last year and I watched a lot of films. To me it even betters Force Awakens and feels like a new film. Whereas Force Awakens felt more like a retread of ideas from the original trilogy.
