Jun 20, 2018
I took a very long time to finish this book. I really wanted to read it thoroughly and understand everything!
I can honestly say...I am in no danger of Becoming Jewish anytime soon! Judaism has a lot of wonderful qualities, but I still cannot reconcile the 1 god thing...
A wonderful resource for anyone wanting to convert or just learn more about Judaism!
3 stars

Purrsistently (46 KP) rated Throne of Glass in Books

I really enjoyed this a lot. I was not surprised to see the author loved and was influenced by many of the same books I loved growing up. I’m withholding judgement on the greater story because it seems like this is just an introduction, but the characters were the sort I’d love to get to know and exploring the world Maas built is great fun.

This was a good book. I was hesitant to read it because of some of the reviews that stated it was pointless etc. I think that it added a lot to the series. It is very interesting to learn about Butch and see the growth of some of the characters.
It was not one of my favorite books but it still kept me entertained and enthralled.

I would give this 5 stars for the pictures and 2 stars for the writing.
I was really looking forward to reading this book. It looks simply adorable. I absolutely loved the pictures but the stories lacked a lot. The stories were poorly written and honestly, used the term "friendship" very loosely. I think that this had potential but I was not very impressed.

Andy K (10823 KP) rated Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994) in Movies
Jul 14, 2018
Continuing the gruesome Tall Man saga
These movies seem a lot like the Evil Dead franchise in that one movie picks up right where the other leaves off and is one linear story the whole way through. This entry was still pretty good with the usual gruesome bits and flying death spheres of fun. Not as much action in this one as the first two.

ashezbookz (32 KP) rated Legacy of the Puppy: The Ultimate Illustrated Guide in Books
Jul 5, 2018
This was just fun - you learn a lot about the different breeds of dogs - there's awesome pictures of them as pups to adults - they have temper/grooming/size and tidbits about how well the dog is in a family and it's super duper informative - and did I mention cute and fun? I can't wait to use it when we select a dog for our family!!

Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated City of Djinns: A Year In Delhi in Books
Aug 13, 2018
This is a very different kind of travel writing. Not only is there experience, but there is also a lot of history and so much can be learnt about the colonisation of India by the British and what happened after the British left. There are moments when experiences tug of your heartstrings, make you mad and make you happy. It's written very well, and highly recommended.

Laura Doe (1350 KP) rated Deadpool 2 (2018) in Movies

If you liked the first deadpool, you’ll like this one too. Just as funny as the first one and brings back some of the favourite characters from it too, like Dopinder the taxi driver and Teenage Negasonic Warhead, as well as some new characters who are just as lovable.
I’d definitely prefer a lot more marvel films to have the same sort of humour in them.

Just like any other Harry Potter fan, I read this book in a day. Loved the story, loved how it's all twisted with the previous parts and even though it doesn't contain all the mysteries and spells and magical moments, it has a lot to offer, like a deeply explained love between a father and a son, or a bravery and unsettled kid.. Lovely book!

One man and his dog: the early years. Alpha (2018) #Review
What if “Ice Age” but the human kid’s a lot older and it’s not played for laughs? What if “The Revenant” but, you know, good? Delayed for over a year, “Alpha” is finally in cinemas and it’s a real treat, if not exactly what the multiplex crowd may be expecting...
