Suzi (55 KP) rated Twilight (Twilight, #1) in Books
Jun 22, 2019 (Updated Jun 22, 2019)
Much better than the film
Having read this and the alternate version of twilight I can definitely say both are better than the film. The character description and story flow are much smoother and in depth. Not the best writing mind you but a lot better than some and it's a new twist on an old tale.
Really enjoyable book with some pretty memorable scenes and one liners.

Lee Nightingales (73 KP) rated Audible – audio books, original series & podcasts in Apps
Aug 9, 2019
Leading a busy life and spending a lot of time on the move means I can't always sit down and read a book. Audible allows me to take my books with me wherever I go. It's an app that is easy to use and I recently introduced my parents to it as well. Convenience on busy days is a very important aspect, and Audible offers users exactly that.

I have two teenage nieces and I watch a lot of teen movies. The Kissing Booth is a fun movie to watch. Its full of teenage mischief, and drama. It doesn't try to be politically correct or have an agenda. It is all about teenage drama, angst, mischief, first love. It's a movie worth having in your collection right along side sixteen candles, breakfast club etc....

James Koppert (2698 KP) rated Michael Inside (1997) in Movies
Nov 4, 2019
Dark realistic Irish prison drama
Michael inside has won a lot of awards but is it as good as the hype? Well yes and no. If you don't like those slow bleak indie films you won't like this, if you do then this will be a classic. Dafhyd Flynn who plays Michael does it in a convincing understated way. This is prison life with the glamour removed. A cracking film.

Anne (15117 KP) rated The Serpent's Secret (Kiranmala and the Kingdom Beyond, #1) in Books

I enjoyed this story quite a lot. It had some good messages in it beyond a fun and interesting story about a girl going on an adventure.
I loved the messages about light and darkness coexisting and being necessary to have both. Also thought it was awesome about loving and accepting yourself for who you are no matter what.
I would definitely recommend this. Everyone should check it out 🙂.

Sianie Mae (12 KP) rated Dumplin' in Books
Nov 19, 2019
Feel good book
This book is such a feel good book and is probably very relatable for a lot of young people, it shows how its okay to be different and that just because you stand out from a crowd doesn't mean you can't do the things that everyone else is doing. Dumplin' is a well written, relaxing and easy read for any young adult

Jessica Erdas (463 KP) rated Stephanie (2017) in Movies
Dec 20, 2019
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. You start out with a plethora of questions and, unlike in many modern day thriller/horror movies, you actually get a majority of them answered. A lot darker than I was expecting it to be. Though some points, especially in the beginning, are a little slow moving, once it gets moving, it doesnt stop. Would recommend any horror fans give it a chance.

James Koppert (2698 KP) rated Doctor Sleep (2019) in Movies
Jan 21, 2020
Soul vampires
I'm a little devestated. I've written a paranormal story plan and a lot of this was a lit like it. Back to the drawing board. This is a very very good film, as The Shining was. This could have ended up being a cheese feast but it continuous the iconic scare in new ways through a seperate story. Absolutely brilliant.

Millie (22 KP) rated The Art of Falling in Books
Jan 27, 2020
This was a beautiful take on a lot of powerful themes - love, loss, and life. I appreciated it even though I'm not a dancer which I believes speaks for the book itself. The language was lyrical and I enjoyed how everything came full circle in the end.

Trude (5 KP) rated The Witcher in TV

Not a rival to GOT
Personally i think its a complicated storyline to follow and doesnt really flow. I found myself having to force myself to carry on watching it and it never really grabbed meand engrossed me.
I have seen a lot of reviews that have said it rivals or is better than GOT, i have to disagree GOT captivated me from the get go and the Witcher just didnt
