Fantastic Sci-Fi Series
I've read all the books that are out in The Expanse series so I was excited for the TV series. They got it so right. There are subtle differences from the books here and there, but overall they did a great job of staying pretty close to them. It's a fantastic sci-fi series because it's got all the bells and whistles; solid acting, great story, awesome battle scenes, and everything flows together beautifully.

Spider-Man is successfully integrated into the Marvel cinematic universe, teasing great future films and establishing an awesome first villain for Peter and giving him the normal high school struggles of a real teenager (0 more)
There is some frustration to be said about Spider-Man suit being too high tech and not solely created by Peter, but his webslingers and superstrength alone when his suit was taken is still redeeming for the film. (0 more)

Loved this book! It was a quick entertaining read that didn't involve much thinking on my part...never a bad thing after work. My 4th graders are reading it in Book Club & have been devouring it too. The narrator is an awesome character that kids seem to relate well to. But he is also able to hold an adult's interest too. Not always an easy feat for a children's book. This is by far my favorite of Dahl's books!!

This book is over 300 pages but the writing is awesome so you won't mind! The book is well written and you will adore the characters. This book is unlike anything I have ever read. It is about teenagers playing MMORPG, lightening strikes and they wind up in the game. It is full of adventure, and twists and turns. I can't wait for book 2. I am giving a voluntary, honest review of an ARC from NetGalley.

Awesome
Never been a fan of Aquaman, he lives in the water... What can he do? Turns out, quite a lot. After seeing him in Justice League, I have been looking forward to seeing the Aquaman movie. I wasn't disappointed. It's Jason Mamoa and he owns the character. Nicole Kidman as his mum..... Plenty of action and a excellent storyline. The music and special effects are very reminiscent of TRON. I really enjoyed it.

So my first thought was... ugh not another zombie book.. lol i'm not a big zombie person if you can't tell.. But that was just off the title.. haha It was actually about bioterrism and had awesome characters and was fast paced and interesting. it kept me glued to see what was next and wondering what was happening. it was a dark read that was very well written. i am glad i got to review it

Original, gruesome and fun!
Director Sam Raimi returns to his horror roots with this awesome flick about a female bank loan officer who has to show some backbone to get promoted and pisses off the wrong old lady.

Without saying too much, you will never predict where the film goes and the unusual circumstances the protagonist heroine finds herself in.

I was skeptical, but this movie rocks.

Please check it out.!

Instead of doing a review for every season I'm just going to review this series as a whole. I loved it. It was funny. It had action. It was easy to to get sucked into the Hamptons life. I'm a big binge watcher of Netflix, so this is literally one of the last big series I haven't watched yet and it was awesome. If you love medicine, drama, mystery, or romance, I promise you will love this show!!!

Awesome
I absolutely loved this book. I found the characters fascinating, complex and believable. I genuinely couldn't predict which way the story was going to go and I love the fact that it was set in a kind of steampunk Victorian England setting. I especially enjoyed the beautiful descriptions of Mori's clockwork. I get that this probably isn't everyone's cup of tea, I think it's a 'love it or hate it' kind of novel but I definitely loved it.

Pacing is a little off
Toy story is almost the perfect animated movie
The movie is freaking amazing and should get the praise that it keeps getting.

Also the animation is great for it's time and the cast is phenomenal.

A true Pixar classic
