Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated All The Time - Single by Zara Larsson in Music
Jun 25, 2019
Mia Ferrari is a London-based singer-songwriter and Instagram star from Portugal. Not too long ago, she released a lovely electro-pop tune, entitled, “Where U From”.
“Baby tell me where ya from. Can’t tell from ya accent. Bite my lips, tasting ya tongue. Still, don’t know what ya meant. Tryna translate when you text. Hope I don’t regret it. Got so much I wanna say. Not sure if you’ll get it.” – lyrics
Every time Mia meets someone, it doesn’t take too long for that someone to ask her, “Where you from? Because I can’t tell from your accent.”
Her “Where U From” single tells an interesting tale of a young woman who shares a special relationship with a foreign guy whose whispers melts her heart.
Apparently, even though his spelling is okay, he communicates better with his tongue, and his hands talk dirty.
In need of a trip, she finds out where he’s from on the map because she plans on vacationing there soon. Later that night, the guy takes her one thousand miles away, around the world, and now she sees where he comes from.
‘Where U From’ contains a dreamy storyline, ear-welcoming vocals, and dance-friendly instrumentation flavored with an electro-pop aroma.
“Regardless of language, feelings emerge and we can only try our best to show them. ‘Where U From’ reflects thoughts and feelings during that time. Also, the choice of transitioning from talking within a language to talking with the body, hoping not to get lost in translation.” – Mia Ferrari

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Everything, Everything (2017) in Movies
May 12, 2017
Though it briefly expresses creative moments that attempts to give itself uniqueness and prospers from cute leads, Everything, Everything is ultimately more of the same ol’ terribly flawed YA novel adaptation. But at least it's not dreadfully dull.

This book is different stylistically than most I’ve read as a large part the story takes place through Twitter conversations and police transcripts. It was very well executed, with simple and sharp dialogue.

Katie Guinn (34 KP) rated Steelheart in Books
Dec 7, 2018
This was an interesting take on dystopian YA. People called Epics with superhuman powers who are almost without exception villainous thugs. That's enough to get me interested. I did figure out the "surprises" at the end, but it was an enjoyable read and I'll probably pick up the rest of the series at some point.

Second Installment of Solid YA Series
I just recently re-read the entire Mortal Instruments series and thoroughly enjoyed it (maybe even more so than the first time around). This book is a solid sequel to the first one, and continues to develop Claire's creative world and characters.
The action is fun, the romance is hot (although sometimes a little too distracting from the plot), and the writing is good. Claire does a great job mixing in humor and emotion with her story, so the characters are engaging - even when they are unreasonable, selfish, and childish.
Give the series a chance if you like YA. It's a fantastic source of entertainment.

I hesitate to write a review now, rather than waiting until after I finish The Pirate's Wish. There are major plot issues still unresolved at the end of this book, which I dislike. The author did get her main characters to spot where I suppose it is reasonable to pause, though. The book is intended for the YA market, and perhaps (Harry Potter aside) enormous volumes don't go over well there.
In any case, the two main characters are interesting and likable without being unbelievably perfect. Neither are they unbearably annoying - something I have found all too common in the YA genre lately. The plot has drawn me in and I find the world fascinating.
On to the next volume!

A must read YA series!
A great introduction to a universe you wish was real. The book draws you in from the beginning, making you root for Clary as she discovers she belongs to a regal group of demon hunting warriors called Shadowhunters. I would recommend this book, and series, to anyone.

Leah (: (569 KP) rated Kiss Me (Keatyn Chronicles book 2) in Books
Jul 26, 2018
The second book in the Keatyn Chronicles is just as good as the first. Keatyn tries to continue with her life and adjust now she is at boarding school.
The continuation of the writing style as a diary really helps you to become invested in Keatyn’s daily life and struggles.
Definitely recommend this series if you enjoy YA romances.

Jan 6, 2021
I gave this up at 47% because I'd been struggling with it from the start and it wasn't improving for me. I'm not sure what it was that wasn't working; maybe the characters behaviour, maybe just the storyline but it didn't pull me in like most other NA books. This seemed more YA if I'm honest :/
