Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Knit Socks!: 17 Patterns for Cozy Feet in Books
Apr 27, 2018
Nice patterns, but nothing I haven't seen before. I like most of them, but again it's your average sock knitting book. I guess there's only so many socks under the sun? I really like fair isle and there were only a few fair isle and color combo socks. There was a lot of lace and I don't do lace. It really depends on what kind of socks you like.
Jessica Cashen (1 KP) rated The Girl Without Magic (Chronicles of Maggie Trent, #1) in Books
May 16, 2018
Fantastic read, I couldn't put it down. Fast paced, full of adventure, great world building. Well written, great plot and characters. Maggie Trent is fighting and next thing she knows she is in another realm, the Sirens Realm. She meets a nice man Bertrand Wayland and he tells her of the rules in the realm. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.
Christopher Colflesh (17 KP) rated Splendor in Tabletop Games
May 28, 2019
The actress talks about her life in and out of show business. As a fan, I enjoyed it, although a couple of chapters went further than I needed them to go. Still, she comes across as fairly grounded and nice by the time you've reached the end.

Patrick Williamson (6 KP) rated Stranger Things in TV
Mar 29, 2018 (Updated Mar 29, 2018)
OK but over rated
Reminds of Steven King films from the 80s. Tension, atmosphere and retro feel abounds but is badly let down by pacing of the story. Encompasses that era really well with nice touches but the story of the first series could and should have been a film instead of being stretched out, there's just not enough plot to go around.

Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated The Shadow Queen (The Black Jewels, #7) in Books

<b>Warning:</b> <i>Book involves a highly inappropriate relationship between a developmentally disabled young man (who is effectively a young teen, and likely will be for the rest of his life) and a grown woman.</i>
The squick factor got in the way of me enjoying the book as much as I usually do with Bishop. It was nice to encounter less-powerful people who aren't all gorgeous.

Dean (6925 KP) rated Sherlock Holmes (2009) in Movies
Feb 20, 2018
Much better than I had expected. A big budget, action packed, fun new vision of Sherlock Holmes. A good well picked cast, great visuals, quite a lot of cgi and plenty of humour. Nice to see Guy Ritchie do more than just East London Gangster films! Also features the quickest journey from the Houses of Parliament to Tower Bridge ever, artistic licence for you!! Sequel out next year!

Short but sweet, naughty and nice, and sooooo funny, Tiffany Reisz has done it again. A brilliant read for an afternoon, and it's really easy to get along with that its as if you already know the characters.
Such a thoughtful wedding pressie from a character from another book ( sorry, i am not giving it away ;-))
I love the Bell hop, I think I might need more of him x
