jmercado (1 KP) rated Flight (The Crescent Chronicles, #1) in Books

Jan 15, 2018

So as basic as the writing was this book was pretty good. Not the best but not horrible.

The only thing that threw me off was the main character.

I'm not a big fan of characters who constantly contradict themselves. Like one minute the main character was like "I'm swearing off men and im staying away from the guys who i find attractive." and the next shes like "oh i hope hes still interested in me."

Another flaw in the books was the lack of relationship depth.

Sure you can see the connection but it really didn't play out well enough to have me root for them.

All in all this book gets 3 stars.

Winning glory by ann gimpel
reviewed by kaila for cbr

Wow, so this one I was kind of iffy about when I asked to read it, but wanted to give it a good try and it sounded interesting. I really enjoyed it.. the first like 10% went a little bit slow for me but then it picked up amazingly and everything got super interesting. The action, the love, the sadness and everything inbetween that happened had me up until 2am finishing reading it. Very good and I cannot wait to read the next ones. I am hoping there will be books for each of the ladies and the guys :) Very happy the author let me read it for review

Miracle on 34th street has been one of my favourite classic christmas movie. That I would love to watch with my mom every christmas. It's a John Huges production which makes it even better. This one of course is the remaken of the older version. I would have to say I love this one way more than the first verison.
I still will always watch this movie every year because it's a pretty awesome watch and I reccomend it to you guys.
My favourite part in the movie would have to be when the santa a.k.a Richard Attenborough meets the little girl who is played by Mara Wilson for the first time.
Such a great moment.

A good backstory

Although not officially Moore-approved, this six-issue collection gives a glimpse of the glitz and glamour of the original group of superheroes, before Watchmen. We get a short introduction to the members of the crew (most of which have their own volumes in the "Before Watchmen" series), and how they came about and interacted. Some amusing fails from their early attempts to foil justice (remember these aren't superheroes, these are guys who donned a costume and went looking for trouble), leading up to a case involving the kidnapping and murder of children.
I'm not a huge fan of the artwork here, being quite cartoony, but it seems to fit the era OK.

Love detective books with some humor in them? Then sneak a peek at the historical mystery novel BAYOU CITY BURNING by D. B. Borton on my blog! https://alltheupsandowns.blogspot.com/2020/03/book-blitz-bayou-city-burning-harry.html

**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
Houston, 1961: comedy meets mystery and history. It's hard to be hard-boiled when your biggest fan and worst critic is your twelve-year-old daughter, especially when she's cracking your case for you and defending you from the bad guys, along with sidekicks human and feline.

Houston is still a cowboy backwater, but Texas politicians dream big. P.I. Harry Lark is out to save the city for President Kennedy's moon mission. Dizzy Lark is out to save Harry.

407. Cam. Alice is a hot cam girl, not really though, we get to see part of her show, there's no realistic way her shows are pulling down that kind of attention, it's the one-eyed handmaiden afterall, c'mon! One day before Alice gets to log on, her password isn't working, annoying. She then has to get the password changed and all that jazz only to find out, she's online right now!! Huh? How? And worse, her replacement is getting better numbers during her cam show, oops. And now Alice has to play detective, meeting up with guys that visit her online room, that's safe, and it all leads to a rather dull, unsatisfying ending... Filmbufftim on FB
