stacey (81 KP) rated Alien: Covenant (2017) in Movies
May 22, 2017
So first off i should say, i'm bloody terrified of aliens. Greens ones, grey ones, white ones. If they look semi humanish, nope nope nope. Than what happens. THEY HAVE ONE THAT LOOKS LIKE A REAL ALIEN AND NO NO NO! Also i went in watching this without seeing prometheus, I would highly recommend watching prometheus first before watching covenant.
So i went into the theater expecting so many people, turns out i had the theater to my sell, score one for going in super early ' not really it was 10:30' So here i am with my cheeta blankie, my hair in a messy bun, popcorn and drink in my hands with a ton of candy all around me waiting for the movie to start.
I really liked this movie, it was super good. But i really, REALLY should have watched prometheus before i watched covenant. I was super confused on many things. but in the end i realized what was going on.
So let me just say this, it was pretty well crafted, i loved how when they landed you couldn't hear any noises.. nothing. How they figured out what was going on was great as well, what creeped me out was when he was standing with the human like alien, the white one. It was like they were the same thing... I'm not up for that, the alien at the end was perfect!
The ending made me sad and a little upset, i would like to have seen some hope for the future not demise.

Kindred Spirits is about the children and grandchildren of The Mourning Dove and Running Wolf, with some hard-hitting history thrown in too. There is nothing 'soft' about this book, it paints a harsh reality. At times, you will be gasping for breath amidst the sorrow as the story unfolds. And yet..., there is still hope. There are characters that still have a part to play. There is love so deep, so pure, it transcends death. And yet, not everyone gets a guaranteed HEA. This may be a fictional story, but there are so many elements of truth in it, it may just break your heart before it slowly stitches it back together again.
There were no editing or grammatical errors that disrupted my reading flow. The pace is gentle and smooth where necessary, with a brilliant story that tells its own tale at its own speed. The only thing I would say, which isn't negative by any means, is that I wish I had re-read Spirits of Nature, just so I could immerse myself for longer. Absolutely recommended by me.

Jaime runs, after the facility he and his kind were housed in, was attacked and everyone else killed. He can talk to the computers that run everything. He thinks this is not a gift, but a curse. He finds himself taken prisoner by a starship crew, carrying a cargo that needs delivering. Rylan is his jailer. But Rylan is keeping secrets from his crew, just as much as they keep secrets from him.
Sci-fi is growing on me, it really is!
Sometimes, sci-fi can be a little overwhelming, with all the technology and what-not, but not so here. I loved how it was explained how Jaime talks to the computers, to the ship, and to Rylan's artificial arm. Love how they play with that one ?
Loved how we don't get what Rylan is up to,not all in one go, and loved how I did not see what was in the cargo coming at me, never in a million years! I had an idea, but that was way off base!
I wrote four stars at the top of the page, but honestly?? Can't find a single thing to fault it!
First in the series Mind + Machine, and I hope I get to read more. Also first I've read of Ms dare, so hope that it's not the last. I loved how she spins her tale, how you don't get it all in one go, just in dribs and drabs, a little at a time. Meant I can keep up!
so, because I can't fault it....
5 stars
