starwarsluvr (236 KP) rated Moon Dust (Two Moons of Sera) in Books
Jan 30, 2018
Fantasy isn't one of my favorite genre's but this was a short, sweet and fun story to read. The descriptive writing was amazing. I felt like I was seeing everything as it was happening. I felt like I could feel what was going on, the sea, the water, the sand, the people everything. It was a fun, easy read. I enjoyed how not everything was easy for her.. how things were bad.. and things were good.. Overall this was a very enjoyable story and I am excited to see what happenes next.

The soundtrack!
The message that being different is good and should be celebrated as much as normality is.

I'm only adding to my negative thing, but it contains spoilers so I'm writing it here - Jenny was a complete b*tch. She knew she was just an act to Barnum. He did let her know at the beginning. What was the point in moving in on him? He introduced her to his wife and daughters!
Suswatibasu (1702 KP) rated The Sense of an Ending in Books

A chain reaction of events
Without revealing too much about the ending, the story follows retired Tony, who re-evaluates his life after receiving a letter from a solicitor. It's a fairly simple drama about how someone's inconsequential actions can have a big impact on another.
Tony is led to remember a time in which his school friend killed himself while dating his ex-girlfriend at university. And his own actions which ultimately causes him remorse. It is a poignant and tragic tale of thinking before speaking. Wonderful, humanistic writing by Julian Barnes.

Mar 9, 2018
Josh Handleman has returned home to bury his father. But he's barely arrived when he starts hearing rumors that his father was murdered and that he owned a bunch of diamonds. The diamonds are now missing. Were they why he died? This is a very atmospheric story with wonderful writing. The story was a bit slow to get going, but once it did, I was completely hooked.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2230 KP) rated Naked Heat (Nikki Heat, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Gossip columnist Cassidy Towne has been murdered, and Nikki Heat must solve this high profile case quickly. To make this worse, writer Jameson Rook was profiling Cassidy, so Nikki must reunite with Rook to try to find the killer. Lots of great action and plenty of fun for fans of the TV show Castle. The writing was definitely better this time around, too, although it still could have smoothed out in a few spots.

bre (180 KP) rated Powdered Murder in Books
Jun 25, 2018 (Updated Jun 25, 2018)
A. Gardner's first published book was also my first cozy mystery to read. The writing kept me hooked from start to finish, and I never would have guessed who the killer was from the start! The 'clues' presented kept the plot intriguing and the subtle touch of romance added a little touch that made it even more enjoyable to read. No violence or gore, with just a touch of suspense to keep you reading on. All in all, a great read for an introduction to a new genre.

I had heard about this book time and time again over the past couple of years on reddit so when I finally got my hands onto a copy I had to dive in. I love all things horror, and this was the perfect amount of genuine creepiness and true psychological suspense. I've seen a few rough reviews based on the author's writing but I disagree. It was easy to read for me and had just the right amount of emotion in it for me. I would love to see more from this author!
Jeannine (8 KP) rated The Outsider in Books

Oh yeah! Serial killers and the paranormal OH MY!!
No spoilers. Book is one of his best. A 2 day read. Had to put it down only because I was completely unaware of my family's needs. Someone has to cook. Anyways... What I loved the most is finding small pieces of myself in each character. Whether good, bad, or ugly. We all can relate. The story itself is a page turner. Descriptive, twisty, haunting, and thought provoking. We are all The Outsider in our own way. READ IT.
Leah (: (569 KP) rated Love Me (Keatyn Chronicles book 4) in Books
Jul 26, 2018
Each book starts exactly where the last one finished, which is great as there is no need for a re cap and fits perfectly with the diary style of writing.
Keatyn is really staring to grow as a person and you can begin to see her as an adult not just a spoilt child like she appeared at first.
You will continue to be annoyed by the boys in Keatyn’s like as at times they all seem like idiots and that she shouldn’t chose them. Although I am 100% for Aiden.

Belle is beauty and brains!
Be my guest, put my writing to the test! As usual the originals are so much better, this story is the perfect representation of beauty is found within. This movie put me in all my feels, from crying to joy and even admiration! There will never be a day where I would pass on watching this movie this has been one of my most favorites since I was little! Still it ever fails to entertain!
