Ella (0 KP) rated milk and honey in Books
Jul 1, 2018 (Updated Jul 1, 2018)
An excellent book to read if you are in your 20’s or want to go back to that inner wisdom you felt when you were figuring out life. Beautifully written with engaging images. You can read this book in a couple hours but will most likely find yourself rereading passages for year to come.
This book is full of poems of ideas that you have most likely thought or heard throughout your life. It’s nothing profound but it’s nice to be able to flip through and have these tumbleresque moments in one place.
A great book to put in the bathroom or on a coffee table with other magazines.

Aasiyah Sidat (34 KP) rated Alys, Always in Books
Jul 5, 2018
This story is based entirely in London and the surrounding areas, which is a nice change for me since most of the novels I read are based in the States. I guess in some small way it makes it relatable.
Alys, always is a mystery novel about a literary editor, Francis who witnesses the death and final words of Alys Kyte. Francis then finds herself involved with Alys's family as they try to get some form of closure from her death. Let's just say Francis makes the most of a difficult situation.

Dianne Robbins (1738 KP) rated The Comedian (2017) in Movies
Sep 15, 2018
Except for a few tiny laughs and a few nice moments between Robert De Niro and Leslie Mann's characters, this movie is unwatchable and unfunny. The humor (if you can call it that) is scatological and the character is far beneath the talents of Mr. De Niro. The jokes are crude and vulgar and I was embarrassed for him to tell them. This is the worst movie I have seen in a very long time and if I had control of the remote or was able to rouse my roommate who fell asleep with it under him, I'd have changed the channel within seconds. This film is an abomination.
Roxanne (13 KP) rated The Zombie Autopsies: Secret Notebooks from the Apocalypse in Books

___ 3 Stars
I liked this book because it was different to anything else I have read about Zombies. It comes from a completely different perspective; to be precise a medical journal.
Even though I knew this was a journal I still expected some more brutal Zombie action...as Zombies are brutal. There was little action in this but the artwork was nice and detailed.
To be completely honest, it became way too scientific for me which meant the majority of the explanations went over my head and it became boring fairly quickly.
If you're into Zombies strictly from a very medical/scientific point of view then definitely read this.

Canon, but not really worth the read.

One spoiler ahead that doesn't really add much but it's nice to know, if we didn't know it already.
A pretty poor attempt at a Star Wars story, especially as it's considered canon.
This may be the second earliest installment in the Star Wars canon, but it fails to add anything to the saga, apart from we find out that Count Dooku was Qui-Gon Jin's master.
The story is mainly based around an adventure featuring Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan involving something about a princess and some jewel thieves...pretty uninspiring characters in terms of originality.

A nice coming of age film

An Australian film based in a large department store, mainly the ladies department and the staff who work there. The main story is about a sixteen year old girl who has got a Christmas job working there (mind you it is strange because the film is based around Christmas and yet it is not, they are all on the beach and they keep calling it summer. Anyway back to the film the main character is a 16 year old girl who blossoms throughout the film from help from other members of staff. Enjoyable and a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.

Quacks is brilliant
An enjoyable game with a nice theme. The game play is quick and fun with multiple strategies available.
I'm not the luckiest person when it comes to boardgames, but I still enjoyed the risk factor of removing an extra ingredient just to move further around your swirling board... Even if it did regularly end in my potion exploding.
