Dean (6927 KP) rated Tron Legacy (2010) in Movies
Feb 10, 2018
I want a Tron bike!
A visually stunning film! I would have loved to catch this at the cinema in 3D to really appreciate it. It has very cool sets, amazing SFX that takes CGI to the next level. It has a great soundtrack as well by Daft Punk, a bit more of the Tron bikes would have been nice. Sadly though the plot and story in general don't match the impressive visuals. Instead just marvel at the awesome light suits and technical excellence of the film!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2540 KP) rated Brush with Death (Gray Whale Inn Mystery, #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Natalie Barnes is enjoying the slower pace of winter on Cranberry Island when her niece's painting mentor is murdered. Fernand was such a nice man, who would want to kill him?
There are plenty of storylines to pull you in and keep you reading, and the main characters are great. The recurring characters aren't as sharp as I remember them being, but that's a minor complaint.

Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated Murder at the Moonshine Inn (Hazel Rose Book Group Mystery #2) in Books
Feb 21, 2018
Murder at the Moonshine Inn is a little edgier than most cozy mysteries, but it does just manage to stay cozy. It was a nice change to have the protagonist try to refuse to do the investigating, realizing how dangerous it would probably be, and then to finally agree to do it but only with the aid of her book group, and to a lesser degree, her husband.
The story is full of twists, turns, and humor, and should please both cozy and traditional mystery fans.

OneStarReads (141 KP) rated The Carnivorous Carnival (ASOUE #9) in Books
Aug 13, 2018
I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:
I kinda liked how this one ended. A horribly nice death for a character who was kinda silly and pointless anyway. Their whole arc felt jarring, at even at the end, when we know their single character trait they've been given, it felt really strange for the character to act the way they did.
Huuuuuuuh... 4 more books...

Mo (66 KP) rated Carcassonne in Tabletop Games

Games are quite balanced (1 more)
Fun trying to produce strategies to turn the game
Nice little game
This is a great game, if you are an experienced player, or beginner playing with beginners. If the skill is mixed it is not so great, as the strategies needed to win a game barely vary much, letting the experienced players have the upper hand. Luckily you can still do well, as many points get awarded at the end of the game
Rachel Maria Berney (114 KP) rated The Marvelous Mrs Maisel in TV
Dec 4, 2018
I laughed so hard I nearly.....
I was looking for something funny, something different. Mrs Maisel tickled that spot. I laughed outloud so hard I woke my bairns up.
It's a nice story, it has drama, it has jokes, it has loveable characters. Most of all, you are routing for Mrs Maisel, who you can't help but want to see succeed. You envy her ability to say what you are thinking, you wish you were more like Mrs Maisel. Wouldn't life be an adventure then.

Katey Bassett (610 KP) rated Sadie in Books
Dec 10, 2018
I won this ARC from a Goodreads Giveaway and because of all the great buzz it had already I was really excited to get it. I loved the way the chapters alternated between Sadie and West and I really loved that the ending wasn’t tied up in a nice little package. It felt more realistic which I enjoyed. I would recommend this book to someone and I’ll probably pass it off to a coworker who was really interested in it once I described it.

Not lived up to the hype
Although it was a good idea, and a lot of fans were very excited about this game, I feel they added too much to the game, and over complicated it... if some of the features had been added in updates it would’ve allowed players to familiarise themselves with the mechanics of the game at a steadier pace, but despite this it is nice to have a new Harry Potter themed piece of media to enjoy
