Auburn (57 KP) rated Olympian Challenger in Books
Apr 10, 2019
I was skeptical at first but in the end this book blew all of my expectations away. The world building, character, and story are so well written you can see yourself there. You develop connections to characters and root for them. Hope is flawed and relatable but grows so much. Her story and those of the others are relatable and heartbreaking.
The cover is gorgeous but what's inside really is the art. I cannot praise this enough.

Original music score (2 more)
Fantastic all star cast
Terrific choreography
I can't believe how much I loved this movie. Hugh Jackman just keeps getting better and better in movies. The original score and beautiful choreography, mixed with a very talented cast make this movie an all star hit. It is now in my top 10 movies of all time, truly great for any age from 9 to 90. I hope you love it as much as I do.

I've been so looking forward to seeing this, and it did NOT dissapoint.
Sheen and Tennant were a genius bit of casting, there wasnt a single flat moment in the series it all flowed really nicely. Even the things that were different from the book just seemed to make it even better.
In fact I loved this so much I really hope they keep the purity of it and dont get talked into creating a second series.

With Sherry out of town on her honeymoon, Cora will have to be pretty creative to solve the latest crossword related murder spree and keep her secret intact. I was happy to see that the character interactions that had grown beyond stale were revitalized here. I hope that continues with the next book in the series.

Purrsistently (46 KP) rated The Robber Bride in Books
Jun 21, 2018
I’m totally unable to put my finger on it just yet but something about this really struck a chord with me.
And something else about Charis in particular. I’ll be thinking about her for a long while.
It is of course, well written.
CW for: abuse/child abuse/sexual abuse/sexul abuse of a child/suicide/abandonment
It is not a lighthearted story obviously, but neither is it without Light and hope and even humor- much like life.

The concept of having clones is interesting (1 more)
I wasn't totally expecting the ending
A possibility in the far future
Contains spoilers, click to show
I think that the author's concept of having clones to donate their organs and basically have no choice in the matter is a dark future that could happen to help cure the sick. I wasn't expecting the ending with a bit of a twist and for all hope for the characters to be able to live to run out.

Incredibles 2 is it as good as the original yes only complaint why it took so long for a sequel I watched the original like 13 years ago but that's my one complaint anyway. Still a good sequel the kids have more too do this time especially jack jack interesting villain too. Hope next time they don't take so long too make a third film

"Boys are good for nothing but eating and sleeping"-- The Hidden Coronet.
Great books! couldn't put them down started on page one and when I surfaced found myself on page 100. I enjoyed finding more about what happened with the makers and it kept me on my toes about well, I don't want spoliers. Let's just hope Raffi, Carys, The Sekoi, and Galen can save the world and not be destroyed in the process.

Finally, a return to the way vampires should be- monsters that go bump in the night rather than brooding romantic interests. If you like your vampires scary rather than sexy, this show is for you.
I adored the book series this show is based on, and it took me a couple of episodes to accept the changes that had been made. I hope this gets a second series and they delve deeper into the issues raised in the novels.
