Awesome book. Well written with a great plot and characters. The world building is phenomenal! Lorna Reid is also creative making up a new sport called Aquattrox. We follow 4 teenagers who learn that their parents are warriors that can wield magic. Which in turn thrusts these 4 teens into coping with this info plus starting to dabble in magic themselves. I like what the book is hinting at where it may go, and I can't wait to read the next book! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

2016 | Card Game, Fantasy
A good game made better with expansions (which I'll review later). The base game is a solid deckbuilder with an awesome twist of a set number of cards in your deck, but you can improve them. There is a interesting press your luck mechanic that lets you know your deck inside and out to help. At two players the game feels a little short. The game ends as the engines really start going. It also does need an expansion to keep it fresh as the base game almost feels a bit limited. With expansions though the game really comes into its own.

Omg amazing. I am in love with this series already.. the characters and plot.. I love what appears to be the start of romance between a trio..I honestly have fallen in love with 2 of the guys so I'm not sure which way this will go. I find myself feeling horrible for Shade at some places and in other places I wanted to go through the computer and hurt her. lol And a couple of times I wanted to throw my kindle against the wall. Lol, that is when you know the book is awesome. Starting the 2nd one now woohoo.

Very creepy Pennywise (0 more)
Awesome remake of a horror classic
There isn't really anything bad to say about this film despite a lot of critisism of the CGI effects of Pennywise the dancing clown. I, however disagree and believe that this version was far more chilling than the first version. Pennywise was back on form with his creepy and outright terrifying behaviour. The plotline rarely strayed from the original script and the cast did well to keep you engrossed in the movie. I thoroughly enjoyed this film and was quite excited when I picked up the dvd yesterday.

I was so lucky to have received an advanced copy through a Goodreads giveaway-thank you!!

I've read all of Lisa Scottoline's books and I can say she did NOT disappoint in this one!! I loved it!

Had I not had a needy 1 year old I would have finished it in a couple of days but alas I had to read at night...Moms yall can relate! :-)

The best thing is that she allows your imagination to run wild with "who did its" and so forth and when you think you have figured it out she still shocks you. Awesome book!!

You don't know what you got til it's gone
At the time the city finally turned off the lights it was starting to feel a bit dated. But there was supposedly plans for a coh2... Unfortunatley ncsoft in the head chose not to continue down this path and pulled the plug. Seriously one of the best character creation tools I've seen in a game. Many of the missions played like a comic. And it didnt matter what server you played on. The community was awesome. Cheers to cryptic

The only complaint I really have is some things posted don’t lead you where they are supposed to. Either the links are broken or it’s not what it says. (0 more)

Enjoyed it a lot
Contains spoilers, click to show
Back when this trilogy first came out, I read it all in a few days because I loved it. It got kind of ruined by all the hype and movies in my opinion though just like Twilight got ruined with the movies and all too.

This trilogy is awesome although I don’t agree with who Katniss ends up with - I was for Gale and still am. It also crushed me when things happened with her sister and other characters in the story line, but that’s also why it was such a great trilogy.

4.5/5* This book was such a pleasant surprise - randomly picking it up at the library (and reading 30 pages while standing there) I decided to take it home - I finished it within a day I was so addicted. The ragtag group of teens battling bullying and drugs - trying to find themselves through the summer. I think the hometown hero aspect was so fun, each person doing something great and trying to make a difference, learning not all choices are going to be cut and dry, and even the romance was great. Such an awesome book.
