Summer is winding down, and Danny is contemplating his future on the force. Meanwhile, a sniper is targeting he and his friends. The characters are great and the plot moves very quickly. Not my normal cozy, but a wonderful read.

This book is eat up with Teh Stupid. To be honest, I read maybe two chapters and was very proud that I did not throw the book or harm it in any way. It was, instead, gently transported to the "back to the library" stack. I even refrained from putting in a warning note to future would-be-readers, but it was hard.

I sat through it.
It's hard to nail down what was wrong. I actually liked the casting. And dystopian future movies are right up my alley. But i just didn't enjoy this one. I want to watch it again to try to figure out where it lost me. But i am not looking forward to that... So stay tuned?

Surprisingly Good
I enjoyed more than I thought I would that's for sure. Had me laugh out loud quite a bit. With ideas along the lines of Back to the future, 13 going on 30 although in reverse it creates some scenes that are funny. It has a decent storyline keeping it altogether as well. Give it a try, you might be surprised!

Found another gem on Netflix(original). It's titled "How It Ends". Stars Forest Whitaker and Theo James(among others). Very good acting, con m film work and storyline. An end-of-the-world style movie about a father and future son in law crossing the country to find his daughter after power goes out and things start going crazy. Really worth a watch!
