ashezbookz (32 KP) rated The Cruel Prince in Books
Jul 5, 2018
Well well - my first Holly Black book - I wasn't disappointed - there was a lot happening in the middle, some of which I felt unnecessary - and there was a particular missing " at the end of a quote which drives me nuts. The book overall was great - it was well written and it was exciting and fun to read. And that ending. That ending was exciting and I really can't wait for book 2 to come out - thanks again owlcrate for another series I have to continue lol

Sarah (126 KP) rated The Vanishing (1993) in Movies
Jul 28, 2018
I've seen this film twice and it's one of those that has stuck with me.
It's not really a cast I would put together; having Sandra Bullock and Kiefer Sutherland as a couple just doesn't sit right with me, but it works in the overall setting of the film. Jeff Bridges is very good in the role of the manipulative murderer, and there is a lot of suspense throughout the film.
Very enjoyable if you like something to keep you on the edge of your seat.

Dean (6927 KP) rated BloodRayne (2006) in Movies
Sep 1, 2018
Another pretty bad Uwe Boll film, but not his worst! Had a lot of promise with a strong cast and based on a cool vampire hack and slash video game. However this is pretty poor, none of the "stars' give a half decent performance and the fight choreography is very lame compared to most films of today, no energy or passion, very slow. There is a fair bit of blood, a Meat Loaf cameo and half decent CGI and that is it! Stick with Blade!

One of the all-time best
I have read a lot of books, but this was by far one of the best ever. This book was nothing short of amazing. It's the kind of book that stays with you - I still revisit it in my mind. I have not stopped telling people about it since I read it... When it first came out!! It's a near-perfect read. And for lovers of nonfiction, this book reads like a remarkable, moving true story.

Fit
I won this through smash bombs it is fair simple to use and easy to set up. However the plastic does leave the wrist rather sweaty. Though it has lot of applications I use for the bare essenatials of how many steps and learning my sleep pattern it says that it will light up when you hit quarter of way and half way to your step goal that didn't happen Though it did vibrate when I hit daily steps.
MoMoBookDiary (20 KP) rated Violets Are Blue (Alex Cross, #7) in Books
Oct 1, 2018
I am reading the Alex Cross books for the first time and have a lot to catch up on. I am enjoying the way each book leads to the next and repeatedly find myself glad I don't have to wait to find out what happens next. As soon as I finish one I start the next.... I found this one difficult to read as the vampire storyline is just too out there. The story wrapped up well and I am moving on to the next.
MissCagey (2652 KP) rated Deadpool (2016) in Movies
Oct 16, 2018
Sometimes the trouble is that hearing a film is very good gives you high expectations, that's what happened with me this time and I have to say I was left disappointed. I felt this film was ok, I did like a lot of the humour but nothing really stood out for me and I wouldn't want to watch it again. I raved about it to my husband saying how it was supposed to be REALLY funny and REALLY good but he didn't think much of it either.
Renata Adam (34 KP) rated Onirim in Tabletop Games
Nov 20, 2018
Unpredictable
Nifty little game where you are trying to escape and get rid of nightmares. Literally! It combines very easy rules with the need of adapting your strategy through the game depending on the cards you are dealt. It is great as a one player game as well as two player cooperative game. The only downside for me is that it requires a lot of card shuffling. But if you don't mind then I would highly recommend it.
Remy Tankel Carroll (36 KP) rated Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) in Movies
Jan 4, 2019
I am a huge fan of the original Jumanji movie and was sure I was going to hate this new version. I was wrong. Rather than remaking the '95 version, the writers chose to update it. Very smart. Yes, a lot of it is silly but that adds to the movie's charm. All the actors did a good job of getting into character but in my opinion, Jack Black does the best job of disappearing into his role. That's just something you'll have to see for yourself!
