Loved the plot and overall idea of the movie (1 more)
Creepy without being tacky
Return to the psychological horror
Loved this movie, a return to the psychological horror rather than the cheap gruesome horror so often portrayed in recent horror-thriller movies. Fantastic cast and premise with enough humor to alleviate some of the stress. Personally the ending wasn't too bad but could have been explored a bit more in the film.

So, so funny (1 more)
Set very convincingly in NOLA
It's own special flavor of humor, takes a couple pages to really "get it"
Sometimes if I get offended unnecessarily, I picture the main character in this book, reacting with histrionics an I chuckle to myself and move on with my life.

This is my new favorite show
Yeah, I am a little behind the times. Im only on season 5 but this show cracks me up. It’s rare to find a show with intelligent humor. I am constantly having to look things up so that I understand what they are talking about. I love a show that makes me learn. And Mayim Bialik is hilarious!
graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated Stolen (Women of the Otherworld, #2) in Books
Feb 15, 2019
<i>Stolen</i> was violent, bloody, twisted, and I loved it! Elena is a great character and the book is written with an easy style and some dry humor thrown in for good measure. Sure, it was slow-starting and there were some parts that were drawn out too long, but I enjoyed the ride when it picked up. I can't wait to get to Kelley Armstrong's other books.

This delightful picture book finds shows the dangers of walking into a strange house. What if Goldilocks wandered into a trap instead of the house of the three bears? It's filled with humor that those familiar with the original story will find delightful. I couldn't stop grinning as I read it.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2434 KP) rated Motherhood is Murder (A Maternal Instincts Mystery, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A night out with Kate's new mommy group turns deadly when one of the members is found dead at the bottom of some stairs. Tragic accident or murder? Lots of humor, and I identified with Kate a little too much. The plot is a little uneven, but still an enjoyable book.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2434 KP) rated Crouching Buzzard, Leaping Loon (Meg Langslow, #4) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Meg is helping out her brother at his new computer company, Mutant Wizards. Unofficially, she's trying to figure out what is going wrong in the company. Unfortunately, before she can figure it out, the office practical joker is killed. The humor is a little light, but the mystery is strong.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2434 KP) rated As Dog is My Witness (Aaron Tucker Mystery #3) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
When Aaron is asked to clear a young man with Asperger Syndrome, he can't say no. The police do have a pretty compelling case, can Aaron prove he is innocent? The sub-plots threaten to take over at times, but the humor and characters kept me quickly turning pages.
