TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated The Alamo Bride (Daughters of the Mayflower, #7) in Books

A Great book !
I got totally engrossed in this story and truly learned some new things ! It made me want to read the other books in this series that Barbour Publishing is putting out. This was such rich historical story it was like being there! Kathleen Y'Barbo really made history come alive in this book and it is filled with adventure.
While it was not my favorite book by Kathleen Y'Barbo it really was a great read and kept me interested throughout the whole book.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars, for good history, lovely characters, and family focus.
I volunteered to read this book from Barbour Publishing in return for my honest opinion. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Grace & Lavender in Books

Feb 24, 2021

Good book. It was a little hard to follow at first, but once I got into it I did enjoy it. The main character (Colleen) is very much like a lot of people. We all want to be different, always looking for the next adventure, never quite satisfied with life the way it is and God uses that quality in us to put us in the path of being able to minister to other people. Just like Colleen is able to do to Grace ( the secondary character). I liked this story and would reccomennded reading it. It will most definitely not be my last by this author.

I was given this book for free. The opinions expressed within the review are my own.

The comics can be a little hard to get out of the skipcase

Excessive use can damage the slipcase if not careful

A gripping and scary series!

The slipcase edition contains all 6 paperback volumes in the main Locke and Key series.

It follows the tale of the Locke family who have moved to Keyhouse.

This series sees horror, grief, magic and good vs evil in a gipping storyline that keeps you on the edge of you seat all the way through.

I would 100% recommend this to both new and old graphic novel lovers looking for their next adventure to read.

Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) in Movies

Oct 3, 2019

Oringal Sci-Fi classic

Close Encounters of the Third Kind- takes elements from the thing from anethor world, the war of the worlds and many other sci-fi movies and mix them all togther and the outcome is a excellent movie, directed by one of the great directors of all time- Steven Spilberg.

The Plot: Science fiction adventure about a group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a "sunburn" from its bright lights to prove it. Roy refuses to accept an explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his life to pursue the truth about UFOs.

This is a must watch and must see film.
