Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Passion Ignites (Dark Kings, #7) in Books
Feb 13, 2018
Lexi won't stop until she finds the Red Eye that killed her friend but in her search she comes to the attention of not only the Red Eyed, evil Dark Fae but also bad boy Dragon King, Thorn.
When the Dark Fea realise she is immune to their powers they know she is a Dragon King mate and to catch a dragon they must trap Lexi.
I don't read much fantasy but I do love this series. The Dragon Kings are brave and sexy and will do anything to protect their mate while also protecting their secret from the Humans.
I do love Donna Grants writing, she makes her books easy to read and difficult to put down.

Heather Cranmer (2721 KP) rated Scary Mary in Books

I felt this book was a bit of a let down. I couldn't get into it for the longest time at all until a little over half way through it. Even then, I wasn't *that* into it.
I also couldn't relate to any of the characters. Mary was too much of a stereotypical goth which really annoyed me. Stereotypes in books drive me crazy especially goth ones. I didn't care what happened to Mary or anyone really.
The plot was a bit boring...trying to get rid of an evil ghost. Even the ending was a bit sudden and disappointing.
This book was just okay. Nothing special. I won't be reading the next book in the series.

Incredibles 2: Groundhog day
Contains spoilers, click to show
Starting right from where the 1st movie left off, the incredibles quickly defeat the underminer and superheroes are cool again, or at least, welcome again)
With mrs incredible missing the superhero excitement, she its contacted by a mysterious person offering new adventures.
Bob is now a stay at home dad, whilst dash and violet continue to attend school....
Things quickly change when the mysterious client who hired mrs incredible is revealed as the evil genius....
To save a little time, this is the exact same plot at the first one, with mrs incredible in the driver's seat this Time around.
Same graphics, darker tone but with the fun bonus of the father/super baby shenanigans.

I received a copy of The Evil Queen from Harlequin TEEN (US Canada) through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I wanted to like this one more than I actually did.
The righting is great and a lot of it is really evocative but the character of Every came off as about 12 or so. Her reactions didn't strike me as realistic for a high schooler at all.
The dialogue is a bit cheesy at points but I'm not gonna complain to much because what's a fairy tale without some cheese?
I did enjoy the story but the sensual parts did come off a bit awkward to me on account of the MC seeming so young.

Hawai'i! Enviromentalism! Pseudo-adultery! And somehow this is one of the most boring entries in the FD series. Basically, Lauren's parent shove a bunch of money at her (as they do), and she decides that with the stress of her friends
1. losing a parent
2. overcoming drug addiction
3. dealing with an obnoxious room mate
4. getting married
I think I might have gone with therapy. Anyway, it's a nice gesture on Lauren's part and the girls join up with an enviromental group for students and shenanigans occur.
This includes Winnie and Faith almost getting blown up by dynamite, and still! The book was boring!
I think it need an evil doppelganger. Yeah, that's it!

Superman gone bad
I found this dark reimagining of Superman quite hit and miss.The kid is creepy enough and fully utilises his powers once he knows what he is capable of BUT the writers could have given us a little more of what motivated him to use said powers for evil instead of good.
The film wasnt to heavily reliant on the gore,though when it did it was pretty cool (the glass in the eye scene stands out) and the occasional jump out your seat scare scene did just exactly that.
Not sure if this has the potential to open up a cinematic universe with nothing but supervillains in (as eluded to in a credits scene)

Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Oculus (2014) in Movies

Mirror of misfortune
Oculus- a underrated horror jem that more people should watch.
It is spooky, thrilling, chilling, horrorfying, terrorfying, twisting, suspenseful, and overall a great horror film.
The plot: Haunted by the violent demise of their parents 10 years earlier, adult siblings Kaylie (Karen Gillan) and Tim (Brenton Thwaites) are now struggling to rebuild their relationship. Kaylie suspects that their antique mirror, known as the Lasser Glass, is behind the tragedy. The seemingly harmless reflections contain a malevolent, supernatural force that infects the mind of anyone who gazes into it. As Kaylie gets closer to the truth, the siblings become caught in the mirror's evil spell.
A highly reecordmend horror film.
