Wanted to cut cable ties and this offers us a lot of the some channels with Sling, and having Netflix rounds out the movies and some other shows we want. There are some networks that you lose when you cut the cable cord. I wish they would flow over to streaming devices like this.

I really liked this documentary. The director has spent most of her career documenting wealth and her outlook was fascinating. The documentary was very impactful, and I loved that she got a chance to go back to some of her subjects. A lot of her subjects had changed their minds from their previous interviews.

The storyline is gripping but I am not a fan of Cole's writing style. She seems to favour repeating the same cliched metaphors and phrases and uses a lot of dialectal lingo which often is without definition. Her paragraph spacing is also quite awry. Apart from this it was a good storyline and believable characters.

This book was recommended to me by a friend. I felt that the writing was sloppy at times (or maybe just a bit too casual for my tastes, as the previous book I finished was by CS Lewis), but still a fun read that doesn't drag the way a lot of fantasy novels do.
  
It seemed like a rehash of a lot of different things that have been around for a long time. I didn't feel encouraged or supported while reading this book. I felt more like I was being lectured and told I was bad because I wasn't doing what he thought was the right thing to do.

Loved it
I loved this book!
Definetly my must read book of the year! I would recommend this to everyone, especially those who have suffered from any form of depression, loneliness or anxiety.
I found myself laughing, crying, laughing and crying again. I could relate to a lot of what I was reading.

It's not as good as the first. Not quite so many laughs, the storyline just wasn't as good. More of a gross out and slapstick comedy than the first. It's just silly a lot of the time, you'll like it depending on your sense of humour. Pity Kelly Brook wasn't in it a bit more!

Stick it to them
A bunch of strippers decide to scam the wall street lot who scammed the world into global recession. I can't figure out why its just a six. The acting was very good, the production spot on. It just lacked something, maybe for me, it was the connection to the people involved
