I'm not good at mentally reading in Wil Wheaton's voice so I prefer the audio book. (0 more)
A little bit action and a whole lot of nostalgia
Very possible future society. Full story that ends with twists and turns, with a completely relatable protagonist. Wade's behavior and perspectives are realistic and attainable - he reminds me of my 18 year old in many ways. Also, if you do the audiobook, Wil Wheaton narrates, and he's a wonderful narrator.

Netlix and enjoy
Yes, I love Netflix. It has something for all my family. From their originals that I adore like "Orange is the new Black". Drama, movies and Anime for my future "Hokage." I truly can not think of anything bad for Netflix. It has user friendly controls, it is accessible from every device in my home. And it cheaper than cable and I was able to get rid of cable without upsetting the screen addicted people in my family.

I found the premise of this novel - a collection of novellas tenuously linked together quite a tedious read. however, it is so well written that I was compelled to read it to the end, yet I still struggled to see what linked them all together. Each story is composed in a different genre or style, from the 17th century to the post apocalyptic future, which shows Mitchell's ability to write multi genre. That is about all this novel had going for it though.

* Contains Spoilers for Season One of the Flash.*
It has bugged me to no end that Reverse Flash asked Cisco for help... What was Cisco supposed to do? He has no to little knowledge of his powers or how they potentially work. My theory is that his call for help was for a future Cisco. One that knew how his powers could effect the timeline and that he still saw Reverse Flash as a quisi father figure.
Time travel makes my head hurt.

Very good film, I have watched it a couple of times. I think it is supposed to be slightly in the future but it could actually be present day because it is based about living your life on social media and posting everything and I mean everything and the company that runs the software like Facebook. It is alarming real life as it shows how quick someone can be found via social media and it is a scary thought. Certainly thought provoking.

Really enjoyed this. World-wise it's a bit like a cross between the Matrix and Blade Runner. A person's consciousness can be transferred from body to body (called a sleeve).

The main character has been brought out of suspension into a new body and tasked to solve a murder, but of course nothing is ever add simple as it seems.

Engaging and leaves you wanting more, I look forward to seeing future series and in the meantime I shall be reading the books.
