Ross (3284 KP) rated Broadchurch - Season 2 in TV
Sep 21, 2017
Quite a drop in quality from the first series, but still a gripping drama. Still well written and well acted, but dealing with the court case and how the town comes to terms with the aftermath of the events of the first series are not carried out with the same intensity as the first series.
TheDefunctDiva (304 KP) rated Brand New Day by Sting in Music
Sep 27, 2017
One of the best albums I have ever had the pleasure to hear. Sting has once again proven himself an epic narrator and artist. This album calms my soul and invigorates me at the same time, somehow.

David McK (3425 KP) rated Death Masks (The Dresden Files, #5) in Books
Jan 28, 2019
So far, all the Harry Dresden books have been very enjoyable, but this has to be one of the best.
Harry is hired by a representative of the Vatican to retrieve the stolen shroud of Turin, while he's also been challenged to a duel by a vampire ofthe Red Court: a duel, they say, that will end the war between the White Council of Wizards and the Vampire Red Court (a war precipitated in an earlier novel). This also sees the return of Michael Carpenter, as well as Harry's ex Susan Rodriguez (still struggling with her semi-vampiric state), and (due to the subject matter) also builds up more about The Knights of the Cross (first introduced, along with Michael, in Grave Peril).

Series 1 was definitely better than series 2. I loved Hannah telling her stories through the tapes. I was good how everyone found out about each other's stories and how they impacted each other. It was very specific in the order that the tapes were played. I really felt for Hannah and understood the decisions he makes. The ending was so sad but it was understanding why she killed herself.
In the 2nd series I wanted certain people to get what they deserved and they didn't. It was hard to keep track of what was happening. When people were lying in court I wanted to walk into the court room and tell people the truth.
