Sensitivemuse (246 KP) rated Silent City in Books
Jun 27, 2018
Great mood and setting
What I liked about this one is the setting and the overall mood of the book. It’s gritty, very noir, and it suits the plot. It shows the other side of Miami besides the beaches and the bustling city we are all familiar with. It’s great writing and really sets the tone throughout the story.
The plot was interesting if a little far fetched. So someone comes up to you and asks you to help find their daughter. Okay. Any other person would go straight to the police right? Although I suppose this is to show Pete’s ‘investigative’ reporter spidey senses and it piques his interest as he delves further into a downward spiral. So maybe that’s what got him going further. Now I understand (without providing any spoilers here) it gets a little more personal later but I expected maybe a little more from it. Perhaps because I’m used to other books where there’s more twists and turns, some more shocking moments, etc. This one just gets down to business and it’s pretty much cut and dry - which is fine for those that enjoy this type of story. However, there is plenty of action which does make the plot move forward.
Pete does take quite a beating in the book but I just could not really like him. He’s gone through a lot, true, but he’s just been on the pity party train and it got old and aggravating. However when he reached the point of no return and when there’s nothing to lose, something sparked in him and he managed to climb out of it (for a bit) but then you have to wonder if he’s going to go back into that void again. Meh.
The supporting characters weren’t that great or likable either. I’d suppose the only one that had something was Mike. Emily wasn’t that great and I found her an annoying pest. And Kathy. She was a piece of work and not that likable either.
I might keep going further into this series. Not sure yet. I did like reading this but at the same time I wanted more out of it. It was enough to get my attention but I really did like the mood and theme of the book. Perhaps I’ll give the second one a try and see how it goes.

too stinking cute and warm and fuzzies!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This book has been edited and tightened up, following being released from the previous publisher.
I enjoyed this, I really did!
I will admit, I had an old copy that I started to read ages ago, but never finished it. Something IS different about this copy to that, but I have no idea what!
It’s a warm and fuzzies, too stinking cute kinda book that just wiles away a couple hours, and you can forget about the laundry and the cleaning, and just fall into the Joy Universe!
I must admit, at first, for some reason, I thought that the Joy Universe was an ADULT place to be, you know? And I couldn’t place dancers in that world, not for the life of me! But all becomes clear when Derek starts to do his thing, dealing with a murder on site and an attack of food poisoning that decimates his dance troop!
Derek is a big ole teddy bear, that has a work smile I would be so proud of, but I loved that Trav can see right through that false smile, that work face Derek puts on. Loved that Trav could bring a real smile out of him, just by looking his way.
I understood Trav’s. . .not hatred, more a strong dislike of the image Derek puts across. When explained why he has that reaction, it makes a lot more sense.
The murder thing takes a twist, and I didn’t see it going that way. So I liked that.
Some sexy on screen time, some not. Some deep emotional bits, some a much lighter feeling comes at you. Just enough of everything, to make it interesting.
I liked this book, a LOT. But for one thing.
First person, present tense AND both Derek and Trav have a say. Maybe that’s why I didn’t finish it before, but I’ve made a decision to give a book a couple of chapters, even if it IS written in my least favourite way, and I’m glad I did.
Not a difficult or hard read, just what I needed at this point in time 😊

Debbiereadsbook (1818 KP) rated Constitution Check (Dungeons and Dating #4) by Katherine McIntyre in Books
Sep 24, 2022
i love this series!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This is book 4 in the Dungeons & Dating book, and while not strictly necessary to have read the other three before this, I STRONGLY recommend you do. Not least because they are ALL five star reads, from me. But I would probably say read book 3, at least. Something happens in that book that leads into this one, and you get an inkling as to what Kelly is living through.
Ms McIntyre never ceases to amaze me, she can flip on a penny and it takes you a while to catch up with that little nugget of info, or this little comment that someone says. I have to slow my reading down to pay great attention, and I love that I have to.
Both Tabby and Kelly appear in previous books, although I couldn't place Tabby til there was something said here. (see above!)
Both girls are suffering in one way or another, but it takes a long time for them to open up to each other, to us. The clues are all there, they really are, but I didn't put the pieces together for Tabby, not straight away. I did for Kelly, because the signs were there in book 3.
Its not an easy read, given what Kelly went through, but it is extremely well written. Emotional reading, I had a tear or too. When Kelly finally lets Tabby in and vice versa, I cried, I really did.
Its steamy too! And while it IS steamy, it takes a back step, I think, to the emotions involved for these girls.
All the other pairings take part here, given as they all work together at the cafe, and we meet Eli, Tabby's cousin. He is one of the leads in the next book along with Arjun.
I read this in one sitting, stayed up way past my bedtime and was entirely unrepentant of that fact! I bloody loved it!
I love that McIntyre can flip from MM to MF and then to FF. Quite a skill to deliver each, but to be able to deliver them ALL?? Amazing. Please keep them coming!!

Debbiereadsbook (1818 KP) rated His Lordship's Master (His Lordship’s Mysteries #2) in Books
Mar 31, 2022
I could see that things were really not as they were portrayed to be.
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This is book 2 in the His Lordship's Mysteries series, and while this can be read as a stand alone, I really think you SHOULD read book one, His Lordship's Secret before this one. Lots happened in that book that is referenced here, but not fully explained. You could probably piece things together, but I think to get the full effect of Alfie and Dominick, you need to read that book first.
Still recovering from what happened in London, Alfie and Dominick retreat to his family house in Scotland. And find themselves in the middle of an age-old mystery. What with ghosts and missing people and now a dead butler, Alfie and Dominick jump headlong into another caper!
I really was enjoying this a bit more than book one, but something triggered with me, and I found myself thinking about another book. With another ago-old mystery, with another painting, in another castle. And I'm stumped as to which book it was, but after that point, I found I didn't enjoy it quite so much.
Oh don't get me wrong, please. It's really well written, from both Alfie and Dominick's point of view. There are more things revealed about both Alfie and Dom's lives in the time they were apart. There is much love here, even if they sometimes forget that.
I again quote my review for Secret:
I loved that the whodunnit was so NOT who I was expecting, nor was it WHY! I love being kept on my toes!
Because I really did not see that one coming at me. But the whole Wicked Master thing? I could see that coming at me, even before the point I mentioned before. I could see that things were really not as they were portrayed to be.
There are almost two stories going on here. The missing woman and the dead butler, then the Wicked Master thing. I liked that, along with the growing deepening connection between Alfie and Dom, which evokes some mighty powerful feelings here!
So, even though things were a little blurry, I did enjoy it and I'll still give it. . .

Debbiereadsbook (1818 KP) rated Make Them Pay (Pretty Deadly Things #6) in Books
Sep 3, 2026
saved the best for last!
Independent reviewer for BookSirens, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This is book 6, the LAST book in the Pretty Deadly Things series, and it cannot be read without reading the others first. Do not attempt to read this is you haven't read the other books, much will make no sense!
I have really enjoyed these books, and I have been waiting for that one book to tip itself over to 5 stars, and Mr Chance saved the best for last!
Enley is Poe's sister. He was kidnapped at the end of the last book, along with other members of the team. Render goes to rescue Enley, who was being held by Seraphina, arch enemy to Dead Maddox who supports this crew. Both Enley and Render have slightly obsessed with the other for a long time. Being on the run together tips those feelings over the edge. But can they save the crew?
Like I said, I enjoyed the other books, but right from the start, this one felt different. Not least because it's the last book, but mostly about the way Enley and Render finally give in. The way they feel about each other and how that comes across.
ALSO! We get Seraphina and just way she is doing what she is doing! I needed that, I really did. I had been asking myself since early, the WHY she is so against Dean and his security company and this crew. It all makes a lot of sense now! And given as she gets a say here, it comes across so well!
Because the other guys are kidnapped for much of the book, Render and Enley are on their own, with just Dean's team: the other guys don't take much part.
Everyone gets a HEA, thank you very much! And those that deserve it, get their comeuppence.
Just one thing: These books are billed as a dark romcom. I get the dark, I really do, but at no point would I say these were romcom!
I'm all about my book feelings, you know I am and this book feels very different from the other and other than what I've said, I can't put my finger on it. Whatever Chance did, he pulled a blinder with this book and because of that, it can only get . . . . .

Phillip McSween (751 KP) rated Dodgeball - A True Underdog Story (2004) in Movies
Jul 19, 2020
Just Too Much Damn Fun
“If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.” In Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story a gym on the verge of bankrupt decides to enter a dodgeball competition to gain the money.
Acting: 10
Beginning: 10
The first few minutes introduces us to the main antagonist Dwight and his cronies over at Globo Gym. It’s hilarious how absolutely ridiculous they are. The set up for the rest of the movie is quick and entertaining.
Characters: 10
Cinematography/Visuals: 7
No, the movie isn’t winning any awards for amazing cinematic work, but it does have its moments. I particularly love how they depicted the local competitions, including one between Average Joe’s gym and a girl scout troupe. The national tournament feels like a real sporting event albeit extremely comical. I also appreciate the different personalities of each team which kept things fresh. You have a team of sumo wrestlers, a hip-hop team, lumberjacks, you name it. I appreciate director Rawson Marshall Thurber’s efforts to keep things interesting and light-hearted.
Conflict: 10
I don’t know how they did it, but they managed to keep the stakes interestingly high with this dodgeball tournament. Average Joe’s is at risk of losing everything and there are a number of times where you think they just might. It’s not a straightforward narrative as there are a number of bumps and bruises along the way that keep things entertaining and give you something to root for.
Entertainment Value: 8
You can’t help but not have fun watching this movie. We all remember what is was like to peg people with one of those magenta balls or catch a ball to save one of your friends and bring them back in the game. The feeling of nostalgia you get from watching this movie is unmistakable.
Memorability: 10
Pace: 10
Plot: 3
Resolution: 5
Overall: 83
There are a plenty of movies that come along where you say, “There is no way in hell this is going to be good.” Most times, you’re right, but in the case of Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story it ends up being surprisingly good. With a number of memorable lines and getting to watch people repeatedly get pegged in the face, this movie has a delightful replay value.

Dana (24 KP) rated The Assassin's Blade: The Throne of Glass Novellas in Books
Mar 23, 2018
Oh my god. I really liked being able to see where Celaena came from in these five short stories.
I loved how all of the stories were connected. This was basically another novel in the series, so that got me all excited.
I had to read this before I got Queen of Shadows because I felt like I needed to be able to better understand Celaena's character even more than I did with reading the other three books.
Like always, Sarah J Maas's plot and character development were on point. There weren't very many slow parts in the plot line. The characters were very well fleshed out. I absolutely adored getting to learn about how Celaena and Arobbyn interacted. I think that was one of my favorite parts of the novellas.
The story does end about a year before the actual series begins, so it was really fun to be able to go back and see everything that had happened before knowing exactly what was going to happen later in the series.
I recommend this to anyone who has been enjoying the Throne of Glass series. Those of you who haven't started the series, do it. I don't think you will regret it. :)

Considering that this book has been out for quite a while, and the movie has already hit theaters, I am going to assume that anyone who is interested is already aware of the plot. And I am going to guess there isn't really much left to say about this rather popular book that hasn't already been said, so just let me say that if you haven't read it yet, you really should. While primarily being about Louis Zamperini, it does touch on the lives of other soldiers on both sides of the war to varying levels of detail, which really helps one to understand the mindsets of those involved, a necessary achievement when dealing with some of the atrocities committed in these pages. And those atrocities are quite shocking. A lot of attention has been given to what the Germans did during World War II (and rightly so), but very few of us really know about some of the shocking violence carried out by the Japanese. This is an important chapter of world history that we all should remember, and it is told here in a very compelling style that should make it easy to get into for anyone. One of the best non-fiction stories of recent years.

So many references to games and movies (2 more)
Great story
Visually beautiful
Perfect movie for gamers and movie buffs!
I want to start off by saying I've never read the book so I can't make comparisons like so many have. For the movie it's self it's incredible.
Visually it's beautiful. So much action and set pieces. It felt like a video game most times but as it kept going back to the real world, the CGI ended up being a little distracting at times but it never put me off. They did an amazing job with it. It was probably even intended to keep reminding you it wasn't real. To differentiate between was was real and what was not.
So much references and it's fun to spot them. I saw the back to the future delorian, iron giant, tracer from overwatch, master chief.....I can keep going. I was quite surprised at a lot of them though, especially of the shining.
The cast is great, the plot was great, the environments were great. It makes you want this world to be real.
I really hope a sequel is considered. I'd be happy with the same cast as long as the story is right. I had a lot of fun with this movie.

Incredible story (3 more)
Fun combat
Amazing audio
Great environment design
Puzzles repetitive and sometimes too confusing (2 more)
Short game
I needed to constantly have breaks
Incredible game worth a play
This is an incredible game. It is graphically beautiful and the story is fantastic. The acting is by far some of the best you will find and you can see the developers took their time to make sure that mental illness was portrayed correctly. Because of this and the audio I felt I had to take breaks from time to time as I felt emotionally drained and exhausted after a while. Because of this even for a short game it took me a few days.
The collectibles were interesting and the lore was interesting to me. The combat was fun but I found the puzzles to be very hit and miss. They felt like a chore sometimes and too challenging at times.
The audio is where this game excels greatly and it is strongly recommended to play the game with headphones to get the full effect. The environments were gorgeous to look at.
Overall I'd recommend this to anyone and this did make me think a lot about it and what it symbolises days after finishing.
