Star Trek, Volume 13

Book Rating
Two arcs finish the line, the first reveals what happens to Spock prime in the Kelvin time line as he struggles against a threat to the remaining Vulcan population. Exceedingly well done, Mike Johnson captures the voice of Leonard Nimoys Spock perfectly.

The last two stories are a crossover of sorts between the time line crews, and while its mostly fan service, its good fun fan service. Great stuff, I hope the next version of Trek is as consistent and solid.

I can't put into words how inspiring this movie felt to me. I feel like I have heard one of two reactions to the movie: "It's just another Star Wars movie at this point" and "OMG, didn't you love it? Didn't you feel like it was a reminder of hope? Didn't you feel like it was a reminder to resist?", and the reactions come from two very specific types of people.

Also, who can resist the little penguin-type animals? Really? Adorable.

Tried to mark it as 10 out of 10, but program wouldn't let me. At 50 years old, I still enjoy watching this movie almost as much as I did when I was a kid. I really hope no producer or movie studio tries to remake this movie with CG as they will ruin it!

I have never seen a more impactful show. The actors involved have brought it from something that could've been just mediocre to something that is beyond words. It is spoken to so many people, saved so many lives, and brought so many people from all over the world together. If a show can do that it deserves way more than 10 out of 10. I always will love that show as well as the actors involved Jared, Jensen, Misha, etc.

Although this one wasn't my favorite of the murder club books, I still enjoyed reading it, more so for the characters than the plot. I love reading about these characters, not only reading about the going ons of their everyday lives but also their relationships with each other. I love reading about these women: their ups and downs, trials and tribulations and what makes them as awesome as they are. I hope there's going to be another in the series!

Well, this was such an easy read, I read it in a day.
I just love the easy flow that James Patterson writes with. I also love the view of the world through a teenagers view, in the throes of young teenage love and angst.
However the writing is slighty young for my tastes now...obviously as this is for teenagers, but I still enjoyed the read and I cant wait to read Angel....I hope Max does save the world.

I don't know about this one. I'm not sure if it has an anime series, or if it's just a manga, but this first volume leaves a lot to be desired. (I just looked, and I guess there is an anime series. I hope it's better!) It's fine in some parts, and in others, the story seems to just appear out of nowhere. It may have potential, but volume 2 won't be moved to the top of my reading pile.

I thought this book would ruin the Throne of Glass series as Chaol was one of my least favourite characters up to that point but it astounded me in being really gripping, following both chaols problems as well as Nesryn and new character Yrene Towers who are both far more interesting characters than Chaol in my opinion. As always Sarah J Maas writes beautifully with plots you could never hope to see coming. Can't wait for the next installment in the series.

You can almost taste the Texas/Mexican dust in your mouth and the heat of the sun on your back. A good read, the action starts just about at the beginning and continues throughout. If anything I would have wanted a bit more description between Santo and Rose as i still can't picture what the look like in my head. All in all a great start to what i hope will be and amazing series that I will continue reading.

My five-year-old daughter will not sit still for a single thing and yet she plants herself on the ground when this movie is on and watches with rapt attention and tears glistening in her eyes; that is a better positive review than anything I can write. There is not a bad song in this movie and it will inspire you to hope for more, take risks, and reach for the stars.
