"This book has helped me through a lot of life’s lessons. Focusing on Frankl’s experiences in a concentration camp, it is about survival, beautifully written, and makes so much sense."

I don't know how I felt about this one. I think I enjoyed it, but there were a lot of characters to keep track of. And really... stop changing Spiderman!

Loved it. I have made my friends read it as a introduction to comics because they can recognize a lot of the characters but get drawn in by the story.

I'm about to expose a lot of y'all, but it must be said.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, in regards to film appreciation and response, is just alt Pulp Fiction.

Okay but cheesey
I loved this movie as a kid and they could have done better making it Emma Watson did an amazing job playing Belle but the rest of it was severely cheesy and they changed a lot of things still had all the singing but something just seemed really different about it and not the fact that it was live action instead of animation

Some times you just want to play a pointless game to waste time and this game is honestly perfect for that. I actually have a lot of FB friends who play this so it does make this game a lot more fun because it keeps you going without getting bored with the game. Plus They give you a few ways to earn extra coins and spins for free which I'm always a fan of.
  
Daughter of the Siren Queen: Daughter of the Pirate King Book 2

Definitely 100% leaps and bounds better than Pirate King - however, there were a bunch of spelling/grammar errors that just drove me insane. The story overall was amazing - it was a unique take on a siren - I have never read something like that before. There was a lot of mayhem and it was very exciting, though a lot of it was predictable it was still entertaining. Definitely a nice way to finish the series.

When I first watched this a lot of peoole were talking about it. There seemed to be a lot of hype. I really like Sandra Bullock and did enjoy her acting in this. The story was quite simple really and I loved the suspense throughout. I found that the ending was quite rushed and they could have done more with many of the characters/story line.

Be warned: ""Blade Runner, the movie"" this is not!

The novel is a lot deeper and, although there are familiar characters and situations, there's also a lot more going on in the background. What I found as being perhaps the most striking difference in the future (as in the movie) is depicted as being overcrowded and industrialised; here the earth is instead run down and decayed. Both novel and film are enjoyable; each is different.
