Book Favorite

"Mary Miller is one of my favorite short story writers and in “Big World,” she writes about flawed, boozy women who make bad decisions and live to tell their tales. The writing in this little collection is atmospheric and claustrophobic and illuminating and lovely. In each story, Miller shows us how the world is as big as it is small."

3.5 stars.

It took me a while to get into this but when i did i got through it fairly quickly. I have to say that this feels a little unfinished. We never got the true bad guy so I'm assuming the story will be continuing in later books.

I'm going to leave it a while between this book and the next.

Amazing must watch
Contains spoilers, click to show
Excellent way to start with the lady and continuing this through the program. It gives you an insight on a family and the rights and wrongs in it however could have looked into parts of this more. Well worth a watch

It had some imaginative ideas, and a nice plot at the end. Good if you like ghosts, houses with history and multiple storylines (can get confusing) (0 more)
Not the easiest book to finish, i just didnt have that page turning feeling like with other books. Also, the plot didn't blow me away but it tied up the story nicely. (0 more)

Weak
To call this a B movie would be an insult to "B" movies. The acting was weak and the story was dull. The creatures/effects and film work weren't too bad but it wasn't enough to make this sci-fi horror movie a good one. The typical leave-it-open-for-a- sequel ending was pretty anticlimactic. Overall, NOT worth a watch.

Not bad
This show has promise. The pilot episode had decent acting and cinematography. The fight scenes need a little tweaking, but overall not too shabby. Ruby Rose seems to play the character well(although she's a little on the skinny side for Batwoman, in my opinion). Overall though, if you're a fan, I think you'll enjoy this show. Worth a watch.

Love all the films and series available. Also love that my kids can have their own screens and I've been able to set parental controls so they can only see suitable things for their ages. 😁👏 (0 more)
Wish they'd put more of the latest movies on, and change the options more often, but really not bad at all, just being picky. (0 more)

Movie Rating
This movie is such a waste of time. I don't think I'll ever be able to like Russell Brand after the whole Katy Perry mess and it just makes me dislike him even more. I also feel like this was a really low role for Jonah Hill. And Diddy's character was just annoying to watch. Overall, this film is bad.

I thought this film would never end. It felt like it was going on for hours and I was just counting down the time that it would be over. I don't even think I paid attention to most of it. It just felt like background noise. Not one of Seth Rogan's best - actually. Probably his worst. Another bad movie bites the dust.
