Convenience Store Woman
By Sayaka Murata
⭐️⭐️
Meet Keiko.
Keiko is 36 years old. She's never had a boyfriend, and she's been working in the same supermarket for eighteen years.
Keiko's family wishes she'd get a proper job. Her friends wonder why she won't get married.
But Keiko knows what makes her happy, and she's not going to let anyone come between her and her convenience store...
This was a strange strange little book. I guess it shows one thing that no matter how different we are someone always has a place and who cares if it doesn’t fit into “normal “ society. I don’t even know if i liked it or not!

David McK (3562 KP) rated Back in Action (2025) in Movies
Jun 1, 2025 (Updated Jun 1, 2025)
Netflix film starring Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx as two now-married ex-CIA operatives who are now being pursued by mysterious forces roughly 14 years after they went to ground, faking their own death, when Diaz's character became pregnant.
But when a fight they are involved in goes viral it has unintended consequences, shining a light back on them and drawing them back into the murky world of international espionage, but now with kids in tow.
And, yes, the title is a meta-pun: not only are the two characters 'Back in Action', but so too are Diaz - this is her first movie in something like 10 years - and Foxx.

Hilarious, Quirky, Wild Wide
I remember watching the movie when I was younger and fell in love. When I finally read the book, years later, I was blown away by the hilarity, quirkiness and overall endearing quality of Adams' words. I flew through the book and enjoyed every moment of the wild ride.

An exhibit on funeral art over the centuries leads Sweeney to a mystery from 25 years ago. Meanwhile, the museum's housekeeper is killed. A strong final (unfortunately) entry in the series.

A fun book filled with B's. The story grows so absurd you can't help but laugh. My family can still quote this book 20+ years later, and we still love it.

Horror Masterpiece
I love horror movies. This is one of my favorites for the sheer brutality, originality and excellent directing. Rob Zombie has always been a great artist in my mind whether it's his music, artwork or movies. This sequel was light-years better than the first movie, imo. Good job, Rob.

Bugs so bad you'll have to start over if you forgot to leave multiple save files.
The ultimate medieval fantasy
I've been playing this game nonstop since I bought it 2 years ago. Brought to us by the geniuses at Bethesda, I've never been disappointed by this company!
