Bee (0 KP) rated Daughter of Smoke and Bone in Books
Jan 29, 2018
I really enjoyed this! Big thanks to my Team Leader at work for buying this for me. What can I say about Daughter of Smoke and Bone? It's original and so thought out. Karou's story and back story are so intricate and well written that I absolutely had to keep reading to find out the ending. Of course I'm going to have to buy the next book now to find out, but it's worth it!

This is an absolutely amazing book. Melissa has a way with pulling in the reader and making them care about her characters. In this book, you following Junie as she tries to first understand why her 4 year old daughter is regressing back to toddler-hood and then she takes you on her journey of discovering hidden things from the past which impacts everyone's future. Several different story lines come together with a surprising ending.
Sue (5 KP) rated Turn A Blind Eye (A Florida Murder Mystery) in Books
Aug 13, 2018
This book has it all, a little romance, some suspense, and quite a bit "I never saw that coming". It is a combination cozy mystery and suspense/romance, which makes it a great book for all three genres of readers. This story entwines the lives of Libby, her sister Mia, the couple that helped Libby through a horrible time in her life, and Rebecca a mother trying to understand what happened to her daughter.

Nice twist on the usual action films
A film about a smart mouthed defence lawyer whose wife and daughter are murdered. Its a revenge thriller with a difference. Instead of shouting his mouth off Antonia Banderas vows to remain silent until the killer or killers are brought to justice. No army training or previous fighting experience, just a lawyer wanting revenge. A good supporting cast makes this well worth a watch.
CKD (37 KP) rated Never Let You Go in Books

I won this book through a Goodreads giveaway. The book itself does not come out until March 2017. Other than a few typographical errors, this is such a great book! I've read her other books and I really like her writing. This was no disappointment. Lindsey is a single mom and Sophie is her daughter. Lindsey was in an abusive relationship and she got out of that relationship....or did she? Must read the book.

Great story
It's already a second book by this author, that I read and I really enjoyed it.
Tim Blake's teenage daughter goes missing and when he enquires about her at her summer job, he's told by staff, that no one with this name ever worked there. Brilliantly written story, that keeps you guessing. I recommend it to anyone, who likes a bit of a mystery ?

Teaches kids good behaviour more than anything though there is other things too. (1 more)
It's short and sweet.
Fun, educational, not annoying
Bing is a cute little bunny with his guardian Flop. A show that doesn't just focus letters and numbers, more learning about everyday life and the right behaviours. Not many shows like that and honestly, if my daughter takes away some of the lessons taught in Bing, I'll be a happy mummy.

What the hell
I was expecting such a crazy ride with good ol Nick Cage.. nope thoroughly disappointed. Unoriginal concept that was poorly executed. Hated/ was completely uninterested by all the characters and the movie couldn't hold my attention for more than 5 minutes. Also the guy talking about his daughter being raped completely nonchalantly was a weird uncomfortable scene. Do not recommend, waste of time but thankfully a relatively short movie
Space travel is of no interest to me. I started watching this not knowing exactly what it was about and the first scenes drew me in. I liked the futuristic technology and the stories between the characters, particularly Tom Haggerty and his daughter. The amount of episodes should have been cut in half though, a lot of it was very long and drawn out where nothing much seems to happen, this spoilt it for me.
