Power Rangers (2017)
Power Rangers (2017)
2017 | Action, Sci-Fi
This movie did not live up to the hype. I was so excited when I saw the trailer and had such high hopes, but it just wasn’t the best. However, I had to give it at least a 6 because of pure nostalgia. I do like that it was a bit more mature because it was geared towards those of us who watched it as kids and are now adults, but still had that original cheesiness that you get when watching the show. I loved power rangers while growing up, and while I appreciate being able to revisit that part of my childhood, I wish it would have been better.
  
I was given this book by a high school friend who is related to the author. I love history and disasters so this book was right up my alley. It was well researched and written, as well as filled with information. As a non mariner some of the language was a bit over my head but I could follow it in context. I could almost put myself on the storm swept beaches with the rescuers, perhaps growing up on the Jersey Shore had something to do with that. Anyone who likes maritime history or history of the Jersey Shore should put this one on their list.

Tara Westover gives an interesting insight into what it isike growing up in a rural part of America with survivalist parents (0 more)
I found her life to be interesting but the writing itself to be quite clinical at points. (0 more)
An interesting view on what makes an education
Tara Westover's story needs to be read to be believed. She grew up in a mountain in rural America in the 90's and had to overcome a lot of struggles brought on by her parents increasingly extreme Mormon beliefs. The story itself is extremely interesting, however I struggled eith the writing style, finding it often quite detached.

DNF @ 65%

I expected this to be a traditional romance--girl who doesn't know her past/has bad upbringing finds love with someone who makes her realise her true potential--and it might have turned out like that in the end...but it was taking so long to get there.

It seemed more about a girl growing up and wanting to find her past than a romance and i got bored. I read for the romance in books and this was very sorely lacking up to the 65% mark.

The pregnancy so early on threw a spanner in the works for me and i struggled from there.

Album Favorite

"I loved listening to comedy albums when I was growing up. This one was produced by George Martin. Sellers used to put on all these accents and do them perfectly. On 'Suddenly It's Folk Song' it's him playing a German anthropologist. [Proceeds to recount entire section of the album verbatim, accents and all] It's just a great record. I loved all those black and white caper movies. The talent on Sellers was just amazing. He was so influential on the Bonzos and the Python people. I picked up on this as a teenager and I know every word of it now. It's perfect. It's extraordinary how funny he is."
