Lindsay (1796 KP) rated Colton's Pocket Dragons: Dragonland (Book #1) in Books
Sep 7, 2021
I enjoyed the story of Colton and his first pocket dragon. Is your child or children into dragons or enjoy reading about dragons? This book starts with a little boy and how he feels his life is boring and nothing is exciting.
We get introduced to Colton. He finds an egg and wants to take care of it. How do you take care of an egg, but it is not a bird egg? What kind of egg is it? We meet a little dragon and his name is "Kolta." The adventures start once this little egg hatches.
Dragonland is where most of the adventure takes place once Kolta and Colton go to visit. Will we find Kolta's parents? Colton does not want to see Kolta leave and stay in Dragonland. But will Colton understand and know his friend will be back?
Children will learn about taking care of an egg and raising a dragon. Children will also learn about letting go and know that they need to live with their parents just as dragons need to live with their parents once Colton helps raise his new friend Kolta.
The pictures remain done well. They are bright. What will happen when Colton finds a new egg that is white with red spots? It seems Colton is starting to collect some pocket dragons. Colton and Kolta are in Dragonland, exploring and trying to find Kolta's parents. They run into different situations. Will Kolta help Colton out of some of the problems. What adventures will they get themselves into, and will Kolta's dad save Colton from the most dangerous dragon monster?

Erika (17789 KP) rated Captain Blood (1935) in Movies
May 20, 2018
Captain Blood is absolutely, one of my favorite films. I actually own it in HD and it's always on my tablet to watch while I'm traveling.
Captain Blood is based upon the book by Rafael Sabatini. Sabatini has written some great books that have also been made into movies, such as Scaramouche and The Sea Hawk. Errol Flynn plays the main character, Peter Blood, who was a doctor during the English Revolution. Blood is arrested and sent to the colony of Jamaica because he was perceived as a traitor. Blood escapes with other slaves (not a spoiler, seriously, this film was made in 1935), and becomes a pirate. Pirate adventures occur, and once Blood's name is finally cleared, it is a happily ever after. The last scene is probably my favorite in the entire movie.

Macra
Watched last night it's not bad not one of the best doctor who's from the sixties due to the budget but we will get to that but first the story. For years this and many other who's had been missing from the BBC archive due to alot of episodes being junked destroyed especially the macra terror where it's been totally destroyed till now. Now a new audience can watch it for the first as an animated feature and it looks good the acting from Patrick troughton is getting into his stride finally after five adventures with support from his companions. Now to the macra they look so much more now scary than they did originally due to budget hope some day they will animate more lost who's we can dream

Heather Cranmer (2721 KP) rated Farmer Fisher in Books
Jun 7, 2018
(This review will be on my blog <a href="http://themisadventuresofatwentysomething.blogspot.com/">The (Mis)Adventures of a Twenty-Year Old Girl</a> at the beginning of July).
I thought this was such a cute book! I enjoyed the rhyming, and even the story is interesting. We're left wondering if Farmer Fisher is ever going to make it to market! The story gets longer with almost every page. The illustrations are absolutely fantastic! You can tell the illustrator really took his time when it came to them.
This is a short story that will keep the little ones' attention. It is a cute story, well written, and the illustrations are beautiful! I'd say this is a book for all ages.
(I received this book for free from the publisher in exchange for a fair and honest review).

Bethany Fletcher (17 KP) rated A Court of Wings and Ruin in Books
Jun 24, 2018
ACOWAR is a fantastic conclusion to Rhys and Feyre’s adventures. This book is more plot driven than ACOMAF and the characters really start to get stuff done.
The plot never lulls and there is always something happening to keep you wanting more. We meet more characters that we had only previously heard about and none of them are dull. Every character has a purpose for being there and all add something to the story. Previous characters story arcs wrap up nicely with some characters get nice, well rounded redemption plots.
Overall this is a brilliant fantasy novel and i personally have read it multiple times since release. Like with most Sarah J Maas bookend this is not for younger readers.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Choose Your Own Misery: Dating in Books
Jul 12, 2018
When you first start this book, listen to the warning. This book is sure to leave you entertained, depressed, scared, scarred and slightly relieved that you have gone so far in your life without knowing that "wound sex" is a thing. Choose Your Own Misery: Dating was hilarious! I couldn't put it down and all of the adventures were funny, scary, or downright disturbing. I loved that you could play as a man or a woman. It really did put it in perspective that everyone has it bad.
If you need a laugh and/or a cry, this is the book for you. It has anywhere from "wound sex" to "let's contact the ex" relationship horrors. It's sure to delight and/or frighten everyone.

Leah (: (569 KP) rated Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets in Books
Jul 8, 2018
Another great book in the series. As Harry, Ron and Hermione embark on their second year at Hogwarts there are more adventures to be had and mysteries to uncover. The character development continues, particularly for Ron who shows that he is definitely brave enough to be in Gryffindor by facing his biggest fear to help his friends. We are introduced to new characters, like Ginny the youngest Weasley, whilst still getting to know the other background characters who help make the story so special. JK Rowling artfully continues to tackle prejudice as witches and wizards with muggle parents are targeted by the mysterious Chamber of Secrets whilst also enduring name calling and bullying. Despite this the book is still lighthearted and utterly hilarious in places. 100% recommend it!!

Cast always gel
Idyllic Setting
The (miss)adventures of the retired generation... Over the years a who's who of British stars have turned up in this long running show which started by following 3 completely different retired friends but over time developed into following the supporting cast of the village too... Clegg was a mainstay of the trio, Compo was there for many years until the death of the actor playing him and then various different 3rd character - probably the most well known being Foggy... It would be impossible to sum up the escapades they had over 30+ series in a short review but if you want an easy, silly and quintessentially British comedy - this would be the one to go for...

Not Okay
I'm normally a fan of road trip novels, and the crazy adventures they feature. I picked up this book expected to really enjoy a cynical take on life as a teenager. Instead this book pissed me off. I would never ever want any teenager who suffers from depression or bullying to read this book. The attitude in this book is that bullying happens, and no one cares so don't bother asking for help. By the end of the book the attitude is a little better, but never enough to make up for the awful things that adults allow to happen in the beginning. I will say there was a few shining moments mostly involving a dog, but even that only pulls my overall rating to a 3.
