Pulled me back in
In between other things, I've been sneaking in some Necromancer leveling. Definitely having a lot of fun with this class.
Again, Diablo has its way and hours disappear with each corpse explosion.
I would have liked new storylines set just for necromancer since the class was brought recently. A mini story, something we didn't see with in first run through of the story would have been nice.
All and all, still fun to play.

A nice surprise
I had never heard of this book until I was given it as a birthday present because it won the Boiler prize the year I was born (1987). All I can say is what a pleasant surprise. It's a well written and intriguing story of the life and loves of a woman on her death bed. The main character Claudia is very flawed, but it makes her more real, personable and intriguing, and there are a few interesting story developments that keep you reading throughout.

Great creepy visuals (2 more)
Good young cast
Very funny
You'll float too
Shockingly I've not read the book but do remember the '90 version shown on TV. Some parts are true to the original and there is a lot of new stuff as well. There does seem to be nods to other Stephen King works as well, like Carrie and Stand by me which is a nice touch for fans.
The young cast are excellent and Pennywise genuinely creepy. I wouldn't say it's scary but does have a creepy atmosphere and surprisingly very funny!

wolf in a suit (4 KP) rated a video of Hozier by Hozier in Music

Hozier- the Irish Troubadour
As I await for what Hozier has in store for in the future, it is a nice reminder to hear this song that showcases the divisive nature of humanity as we are in a constant battle with love, lovers and the such. He understand it and does not make a rule that everyone must follow, he knows something about it: that it is ever changing and never set in stone..

I loved this book! Fast, fun, and spirited (in more ways than one!), it was a great, interesting, and unique read with a wonderful heroine. I liked that it deals with both Celtic and American Indian ways, which is really different in the urban fantasy scene. Joanne was very realistic, the plot fascinating, and her sidekick, Gary, was a nice change of pace. While everyone won't like this, I highly recommend reading it anyway. I can't wait to get to get to the sequels, this is definitely one of my favorite new urban fantasy series!

This isn't normally a genre that I read but it was Aprils book group choice so I gave it a go (sad stories make me sad!) The friendship that formed between Lizzie and The Buckminster boy was one of faith and finding out about a different way of life. It's hard to think that there was a time when people really choose to treat other people in this way but it was nice to see that a young boy could overlook what society told him he should see.

It is on the verge of good and very good, it is quite gripping and kept me entertained, normally I do things whist watching TV or films, this I gave 100%. The storyline has twists and turns and I managed to guess the corrupt cop incorrectly. The ending was quite sudden and it would have been nice to know what happened to her but their is an opening for a second one. Made me think of Kill Bill, John Wick and Red, so if you like those film you might enjoy this.

I enjoyed this interesting thriller after discovering it on Netflix. The brilliant Naomi Rapace is in great form as the bodyguard assigned to protect the daughter of a rich man whose company is bidding to buy land that is also being bid on buy another rival firm. Lots of action and plot twists make this well worth watching as the two of them must fight against the odds to uncover who is behind the conspiracy and assassination attempts on the girl.

Loved this movie, wow enjoyed it from start to finish and it didnt seem anywhere near 3 hours, loved the comedic elements to it, loved the closure for captain America, nice way to end his story, loved the emotional feel, especially for iron man, loved it 3000, understood the sacrifice black widow made, shame she didnt get the same treatment stark got but maybe that was due to her character getting a standalone movie after this whereas ironmans story is done, as I said great movie!!
