Jessica Erdas (463 KP) rated The Book Thief in Books
May 16, 2018
It's rare to find a book that grips you by the heart and takes you on a ride. There's so much to love about this book. Zusak definitely has a way with words that draw you in and make it hard to put down. The story is about a young girl torn apart from the life she's known during the holocaust. It details the pain of nazi Germany and the trials that went with it. This is a story about death, love, friendship, books, a love of words, and a young brave girl trying to do the right thing in a world gone bad. It's told in the viewpoint of death and his encounters with the book thief. Finished this in 5 days and I'm sitting here pining for more, even though the story was brought to an acceptable conclusion. Find the time to read this, it's well worth it.
Neon's Nerd Nexus (360 KP) rated Only God Forgives (2013) in Movies

Wana fight
Number 5 in my #top10 favourite films is 'Only God Forgives'
------------------------------------------
Very misunderstood and dripping in style from head to toe #OnlyGodForgives is such a stunningly #crafted film that i get #goosebumps from watching it every time. There may not be much dialog but every characters personality and past pain can flawlessly be seen and felt in facial expressions and acting alone. This combine with #beautiful cinematography and an intimidating/hostile atmosphere make for one of the most visually interesting, extremely rewarding and highly #depressing films I've ever seen. #Nicholaswindingrefn although #hated by many is my #favourite director of all time, his sheer ability to make me #feel a #deep #emotional connection using visuals and music alone is something I find absolutely #fascinating, #disturbing and extremely intoxicating. His films really are my favourite #drug.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2603 KP) rated Plantation Shudders (Cajun Country Mystery, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Maggie and her family are delighted to have a full house at their bed and breakfast as summer is coming to an end. However, the elderly couple is a real pain, so no one is too upset when they both die within minutes of each other. The sheriff is sure that one of them was murdered, and since he has a vendetta against Maggie’s family, she’s going to have to find the killer. Can she do it?
This is a fun mystery with a great setting in Louisiana Cajun country. Maggie a great main character, and her Gran makes a fantastic sidekick. I did feel the mystery slowed down a time or two, but the clues were all there and it reached a great climax.

David McK (3843 KP) rated Alien: Sea of Sorrows in Books
Nov 20, 2019
The second - although I read/listened to it third - in a new(ish) series of Canonical Alien stories, this one is set even further in the future than the previous entry (Alien: River of Pain) and follows a descendant of Ellen Ripley, Alan Decker, who is an empath and who is forced to join a team of mercenaries investigating a dig on the planet known as New Galveston: a dig that has unearthed something that is probably better left forgotten …
Yep, Weyland-Yutanio is at it again, sending in a team of unprepared and ill-advised soldiers (or, here, mercenaries) in an attempt to gather a 'specimen' alive: a team that, of course - with a few exceptions - finds itself completely outclassed by the Xenomorph, who are here shown to hold a particularly impressive millennial-old grudge against 'The Destroyer', one Ellen Ripley (or her descendants).
