Jessica Erdas (463 KP) rated Dumplin' (2018) in Movies
Nov 20, 2019 (Updated Nov 20, 2019)
A story about loving yourself even when society tells you not to. Willowdean is a plus size girl and the daughter of a pageant queen. She lives in contrast to her mother who lives based on appearances. Will decides to enter a beauty pageant as a form of protest to the perceived perfection they target and learns a lot about herself, friendship, and family. The message of body positivity and loving yourself/embracing yourself for who you are is very heartwarming. One worth rewatching.

This is one of those books I have been meaning to read for a while. It was a lot of fun to get some background on Carrie as well as tidbits on some of my other faves such as Debbie Reynolds, Mark Hamil, and Harrison Ford. The book is mostly about Carrie’s relationship with Harrison during the filming of the first film. I really liked hearing Carrie describe her life in the audiobook and it was fun that Billie Lourd also narrated some of the journal entries.

I have not read a lot of comics. I did get very into Valerian and Laureline and the new Labyrinth comic, but both I got into because of already being a fan of the story from the movie versions. Getting into this media, both of my brother (avid comic book readers) each suggested some comics for me. My younger brother suggested saga. I really enjoyed reading it. I found the story, style, voice, magic, and characters to all work great. I will continue reading this series soon!

Like all other John Green books, I thoroughly enjoyed the book. This book is probably my least favourite of all his books. 1. It didn't live up to his other books 2. It didn't really have a climax or turning point. 3. There was a lot of maths and jumping from reading to the bottom of the page. Wasn't really for me, but I did like it and enjoyed it.

Voice control (1 more)
Applications
Convenient. Entertaining. Resourceful.
I used my amazon voucher and waited for black Friday deal to appear so that the stick would come down to £20!! Amazing deal. Very convenient to use.. use of apps such as netflix and spotify, as well as other videos that are convenient such as exercise videos etc. The voice control is very easy to navigate and saves a lot of effort and time having to look for the right programme/application/song etc!

A great story that is perfect for introducing children to LGBT* characters within their books. It contains reference to another book that children are likely to know or have heard off so they are able to relate it more to the idea of Charlotte and Wilbur. It is recommended to a lot of our students when they are after something different to what they normally choose and it really gets them thinking. Beautifully written and I am glad that they had a friend who understood them.
Reiko LJ (126 KP) rated the Xbox 360 version of Mass Effect 3: From Ashes (DLC) in Video Games

Necessary DLC
Unlike the other DLCs for the game, it doesn't give you hours of new areas and missions. What this does give you is a new squad member who is so key to the game and crew interactions that its clear he was originally in the base game.
Grumbles aside about how this was integrated, this DLC is a must have when playing Mass Effect 3. Javik adds a lot of interesting view points to the lore.
