Dark Faerie Paranormal Romance
Merissa (11958 KP) rated Faith and Moonlight (Faith and Moonlight #1) in Books
May 20, 2023
This is a young adult fantasy novella that starts with Roan and Kay on their way from an orphanage fire. They have little left in the world apart from each other but are determined to make their path at the College. Kay and Roan are both interesting characters, with strengths and weaknesses of their own. They balance each other out nicely, but it may be that their lives will take different paths.
This was a quick read that was thoroughly enjoyable, a fantasy-filled ride full of characters and hardships. Well written and with no editing or grammatical errors that I found, the story flowed well and was evenly paced throughout.
This is the first novella by these authors that I have read, and although this can be read as a standalone, I understand that it is best if you have some prior knowledge of the "Echo of the Ascended" series. I don't have such knowledge, but I don't feel that this negatively impacted my enjoyment of this novella either. Definitely recommended.
* I received this book from the authors in return for a fair and honest review. *

tapestry100 (306 KP) rated Star Wars: Before the Awakening in Books
Aug 3, 2017
Star Wars: Before the Awakening by Greg Rucka is a collection of 3 shorter stories, one each about Finn, Rey, and Poe that more or less leads up to The Force Awakens movie. While neither is reliant on needing knowledge of the other (if you've seen the movie, for instance, you don't need to read the book), the book does flesh out a little background on the characters before we're introduced to them in the movie, so if you like the movie, I'd say this would be a great companion piece to read.

I fell in love with Will and Awa throughout the book and really felt a bond with the characters. I found it fascinating to read about the different historical events and I really think this is an interesting way to spread knowledge of history! I’d rather learn about history when it is mixed in with fiction than sit down with a textbook!
The novel is constantly exciting, and it kept me gripped right up until the end.
I really can’t wait to see how the story progresses in the second book!

Not for me, I love colour, it's what sells the book to me first and foremost. Its what draws me in and makes me have a closer look. This is bland and boring. Black and white photos, black and white diagrams, black and white text...boring. It would be quite at home in the 60's
Now don't get me wrong if your a beginner or and expert crocheter like myself you will find this book a fountain of knowledge you just won't find it on my shelf in the craft room

An amazing insight into the long history of the 'first Americans'. A great balance between detailed recounts of events, yet a broad enough stroke through the history to explain the major parts of the history for the last 20,000 years.
A wonderful book, concise yet still detailed, full of emotion and accuracy in the telling of the the tragic events, but not being too romantic over the good times either.
A must read for anyone interested in developing their knowledge of this remarkable group of people, true survivors and determined to control their own destiny.

One of the most easy to watch and all out entertaining of Marvel movies. Plenty of action and humour it’s also very accessible as a solo adventure and you don’t need to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Avengers back stories in order to enjoy it. I think Paul Rudd was also a fantastic bit of casting and he’s as well suited to the role as Robert Downey JR was to Tony Stark/Iron Man. Scott Lang is likeable, funny and charismatic company and fast becoming one of my favourite Avengers.
Jewels (684 KP) rated The Logo Board Game in Tabletop Games
Apr 13, 2020
If you are wanting a game to test your knowledge of different logos, this is not the game for you. This a trivia game that goes well into slogans, numbers, history, and so much more. We had a lot of fun playing it, however the kids found it much harder to play as they don't recognize a lot of the older brands. While this is labeled for ages 12 and up, adults will find it easier to answer several of the trivia questions, while the younger crowd struggles to make it thru a card.
