Leah (: (569 KP) rated Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in Books

This book just never gets old. What is essentially supposed to be a children’s story can be loved and appreciated by anyone. JK Rowling masterfully tackles the issues of friendship and prejudice in this story as a young Harry Potter arrives at Hogwarts for the very first time and has to decide who he wants to be. All of the characters are very real with good and bad traits, making them even more likeable and relatable.

Aww, that last bit! Nero giving up training to just lounge on a settee with Leda eating caramel popcorn?! Who'd have thought? Haha.
I do enjoy this series very much and most of that is centered around Leda and Nero's relationship, and the friendship she has with many of the other members of the Legion. That's not to say that i dont enjoy reading about their adventures out in the wild.
Looking forward to reading more of this series!

Huh, what is it with the fact that just as something is about to happen between Kou and Futaba that they always get disturbed!
I have to admit I'm still loving this manga, the five of them as a group are quite cute with their friendship. I'm not too sure about the new guy and his interest in Futaba though. I'm still firmly Team Kou, even when he is being an arse.
Off to start #6

Ellie is a quiet introverted unpopular girl, she works hard to support her and her father, and even charges classmates to do their homework to earn extra cash. When one of the jocks, Paul, asks her to write a love letter to a girl, Aster, she at first refuses, why? She is also in love with her. But when her electric company threaten to cut her off due to being in arrears with them, she agrees to write Paul's letters and charges him $50 for the privilege. They become friends as Ellie continues to help Paul get closer to Aster through letters, texts and awkward dates.
It might sound like a romance movie, but it really isn't. It's more about the friendship between the two characters and its done really well, Aster is only a way of getting these characters closer and isn't a main part of the story. I liked how we see the friendship develop and was refreshing to see a movie where love is not the intention, proving that boys and girls can be just friends.

Jun 7, 2022
Mason has a big-time crush on Hunter who they work with. However, when they were drunk and made a pass at Hunter, he turned him down flat out, leaving Mason a little heartbroken but he kept the friendship going. Hunter has an attraction toward Mason and wishes he could tell them what truly beautiful and wholesome human being they are and how they make him feel.
Oh my gosh, this story is beautiful! It's the third instalment of the dungeons and dating series and every story is written with so much feeling and passion that you get an understanding of each character.
Both Mason and Hunter have their different heartaches regarding drugs and addiction, you get a feel of the turmoil both characters have going on inside them and in some instances have my heart breaking for them.
It is a beautiful story that focuses on drug misuse, the loss of loved ones through drug use and the love and friendship people can find in the darkest of times

ClareR (5608 KP) rated Best of Friends in Books

I enjoyed this novel about two friends from Karachi, both from wealthy families. It’s 1988, and a time of great change in Pakistan. The dictatorship is over, and Benazir Bhutto is set to become Prime Minister.
Maryam and Zahra make a poor decision after a party that has consequences for many years.
Thirty years later both women live in London. They both have the best educations that money can buy, and a Oxbridge degree each. They’re both hugely successful in their chosen professions, and regularly see the seedier side of their professions (mainly corrupt politicians).
But when someone from their past reappears, questionable decisions are made once again. I was mentally shouting at the character involved for her utter stupidity, and I was really surprised that Maryam and Zehra’s friendship survived this at all - I don’t know as I would be as forgiving. There was a point where I wasn’t so sure that the friendship would survive though.
I liked this, and I’m aware from reading other reviews that it’s very much a marmite book. Love it or hate it: I loved it.

Fun!
What a fun, extremely entertaining movie. The slapstick humor had me rolling. The cinematography and acting were great and the premise was refreshingly unique. This movie about friendship was so fun and endearing. When I first saw the preview, I thought "How can they make a movie about this?'. To find out some friends actually did this in their lives was surprisingly heartwarming. This is a movie for the whole family. Really worth a watch!
