Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated King Richard (2021) in Movies
Nov 9, 2021
I was pleasantly surprised by the film and with Will Smith's performance, King Richard is not just a film for tennis fans, it's a film that brings home the love of family and a father's passion for his daughters future.
A film that is well worth checking out.

Hazel (2934 KP) rated Devil's Chimney (Detective Rutherford Barnes #1) in Books
Dec 18, 2022
With a gritty plot and excellent and well developed characters, this is a great addition to the police procedural genre. The pace is a little steady to begin with and it took me a while to get into it, but it certainly ramps up to what is a tense and very satisfying finish.
Thanks go to Joffe Books and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of Devil's Chimney.
It's primarily post apocalyptic set, a kind of retro future in that it starts in an alternate 1960s and then jumps on 200 odd years, with Ella Purnell the main lead of the story as she ventures aboveground from Vault 33 for the first time in her life in search of her kidnapped father.
Of course, things are not always as they seem ...

postapocalypticplayground (27 KP) rated Cinder in Books
Jan 9, 2018
The Lunar Chronicles is a series that I have had my eye on for ages, so on a whim I picked it up from the bookshop and I am so glad I did. Far from a traditional reimagining of the Cinderella tale, this does have a few nods to the source material, some glaring and others more subtle, but is very much it's own unique story. I could not put it down, it was an light and easy read for me, a ton of content but non of it weighty or overly complicated, which many parts of the story could have been. It's a world full of strong characters and in this instance I felt a pang of sympathy for the "wicked" stepmother, although it's clear that the big bad in this incarnation is the Lunar Queen Levana rather than Cinders adopted family.
I was hoping that Cinders story would be wrapped up in this episode but it becomes clear that hers will be an overarching story in how these books play out, so I'm off to get Scarlett (book 2) as soon as i'm able. This is a perfectly paced story with lots of twists and foundations being laid for future books in the series, characters that you will love and hate and heart stopping moments that will keep you turning page after page.
