Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Quilts in the Attic: Uncovering the Hidden Stories of the Quilts We Love in Books
Apr 27, 2018
This book is so inspiring! I loved flipping through the book and looking at the pictures of the quilts and reading about them. It was fun to read, too. These stories felt more like fictional short-stories than they did a historical report! The only thing I would change is I would have liked the book itself to be a little larger, because the pictures were so small. I also would have liked to see more pictures of the quilt. There was only one picture of each quilt.
This would be an excellent gift to a quilter or a quilt collector.

I was blown away by this show. I don't usually "binge" series, but I had this one done in two days and couldn't stop.
The humor permeates the whole show, sometimes up front, sometimes subtle.
The diverse cast did a fantastic job. The ending of the last episode was mind boggling.
It has an excellent main plot as well as a very engaging B and C plot.
It really maintains a real feeling of love and positive feeling for a place even if there are lots of dark things going on.
You have to watch it.

ALilLacey (2 KP) rated Dragon Slippers (Dragon Slippers, #1) in Books
Mar 4, 2019
An imaginative story of dragons and a poor, plain girl named Creel. This is an excellent read for not only school age children but also adults. I loved the new take on dragons and what they all hoard instead of gold and jewels. The descriptions of dragons as well as Creel's dress work was vivid and believable. I could really place myself there with Creel and go through what she was going through, even down to her itchy feet while wearing her blue dragon slippers. Recommended! I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series.

Characters you quickly learn to love (2 more)
Interesting storyline every episode
Excellent acting
From someone who doesn’t usually like medical dramas, I absolutely adore this show! It has more of a focus on the people side of things than the medical side of things (which is possibly why I like it so much!). A lot happens in each episode and to put that in perspective, everything in the trailer I watched for the show was in the first episode. I would definitely recommend this show to anyone who likes exploring relationships between characters, not just people who like medical shows!
Dankwa Brooks (5 KP) rated Bonnie and Clyde (1967) in Movies
Mar 9, 2018
I watched this film In honor of ROGER EBERT (who died a few days ago) that I got out of his 'The Great Movies' [1] book. I of course heard of the film, but had no real interest in watching it until I read Roger's essay in his book. Below is what I found on IMDb.
"Roger Ebert had only been a film critic for six months when he saw this film and hailed it as the first masterpiece he had seen on the job."
I'm not ready to call it a masterpiece, but it sure is excellent. A GREAT gangster pic.

Dana (24 KP) rated Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories in Books
Mar 23, 2018
While I very much enjoyed the first story, Sleepy Hollow, I was not as big a fan of the other five stories. I was expecting major creep factor, especially since Sleepy Hollow is so often turned into Halloween films, but it just wasn't there.
I think I am just not a big fan of Irving's writing style.
Rock Paper Books did an excellent job putting the stories together, though. The cover art was stunning and I am so glad I got this as part of my August 2017 Owlcrate.
All in all, it wasn't horrible, just not my cup of tea.

What a page turner! Yes the plot is a bit ridiculous and yes the characters lives are a bit bizarre, but you can't deny that this book is gripping the whole way through!
The twists and turns in this book are never ending and they're all completely shocking, though one in particular strikes you more than others. I'm definitely going to look into more Peter Swanson books after reading this one, I think he's an excellent writer and if he continues to write books as good as this I can easily see him becoming one of my favourite authors.

Book Divas (227 KP) rated BONES in Books
Mar 17, 2018
OMG!! This was such a deviantly twisted and disturbing book.... I LOVED it and every single stomach-turning moment. The story was written in such a way that I could practically hear the victims last breathes right in my ear and could smell all of the spilled blood. Guy is truly a pathological deviant and in tune with himself. Bones would make an excellent movie. Kudos to Yolanda for allowing us the opportunity to delve into her dark and twisted mind. This is a must read but not for those who are squeamish as great detail has been put into these horrific acts!
