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 (3562 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.

"Monster" was a very quick read and was interestingly set up. I enjoyed how it was written like a movie, it made it feel more real. The story line was a court case, so a lot of repetition. I wanted to know if he really did it or not. That was my biggest issue with the book.

Very good feel good film
An enjoyable feel good film as a coach with tough methods aims to to turn around the fortunes of the boys on his team, on and off the court. Samuel L Jackson is great in his role and although predictable it's a fun feel good film based on a true story.

Fantastic beginning to the memorable New 52 run of Batman. The introduction of the Court of Owls into the Batman mythos has not only provided the world's greatest detective with a new mystery to solve, but further expands the ever darkening legacy of Gotham City. One of my favorite Batman stories.

Lindsay (1760 KP) rated Courting Cate (The Courtships of Lancaster County, #1) in Books
Feb 8, 2018
Cate is quite different. She love to read and is reading something. Her father make a edit that the oldest must do everything before the youngest can even court. Both girls do not like this rule at all. Cate want nothing to do with this rule though their no way out of it.
Betsy has suitors though out and quite attractive. Pete Treager comes to Lancaster County for a job. While he there, Marvin and Martin in all trying to get Pete to court Cate. Cate though has her suspicious and it get in her way a bit. She jump to collusion and when she finds out about her little sister Betsy problem. I am not going to tell you for I do not want to spoil the ending the surprises that come though out.
