KarenRC (6 KP) rated At the End of The Summer in Books
Jul 23, 2018
This is a contemporary love story about how two people try to overcome their own personal issues to find true love.
It is an easy read with interesting characters and a well-put together story that lovers of this kind of book will really enjoy it.
I am personally not a huge fan of this genre, but that didn't stop me from enjoying it and I won't be so quick to dismiss a book in this category again.

spoiler: jar jar is now working as a clown at an orphanage. highlight of the book. just kidding.
great wrap up to the trilogy even though I didn't fully love the final romantic pairing for sinjir, but that's my personal preference. sinjir + jas imo lol
love how it explains what's on Jakku and how it may explain where snoke may be from, and the battle that happened on jakku, which we see the remains of in the force awakens.

The first time I watched this movie I was really drawn into the plot. I would have liked a little more background, but that's just my personal preference. The plot is angsty and can be kind of dark. The language can be offensive depending on your views, but I feel it fits the movies tone well. The acting was alright, but felt forced at some points. Overall it was a very good movie and would recommend watching it.

Antoine Fuqua and Denzel Washington are always a winning pair. I think I may have liked this movie more than the first, mostly because it brought more of a personal story for Denzel's character. The beginning set the tone, and for a bit of the movie, you think it's just going to be Denzel righting wrongs, but then it finally gets into the story. I think my favorite was the end, the cinematography during the hurricane was amazing.

A Wonderful Reimagining
questions readers may have had from the original work. Elizabeth is a dark, yet delightful character who literally "takes care of Victor" to the very end.
We get to meet the monster on a more personal level and information is tied up quite neatly through the existence of two journals. But, no more information shall I reveal lol. Jump in and read for yourself this story of teens true meaning of freedom

One of the first books by King I read, as a relative newbie to the genre of horror I was not left disappointed. The gripping plot has stuck with me and it remains a personal favourite. In a traditional for King manner things are never as they seem, the reader is left guessing. Without spoiling the plot, I would definitely recommend it as a lovely bit of literature to keep one busy on a cold day.

Emotive and challenging
I had to take a few days breather before writing a review for this book. It is an truly emotive read, challenging your personal ethics by drawing you into the lives of Louisa and Will. I am not going to elaborate because it will very quickly become spoilery. Suffice it to say that it is very well written, it tackles a significantly poignant issue of the current era and it left me upset, disturbed and satisfied.
AT (1676 KP) rated Alice in the Country of Hearts, Vol. 02 (Alice in the Country of Hearts, #2) in Books
Nov 15, 2019
Volume 2 of Alice in the Country of Hearts was a very quick read. The characters are beginning to show their true colors, so some of their interactions were more interesting than they were in the first volume. There were a handful of parts that seemed random, but overall, it continued on its trippy story path. On a personal note, I didn't think that the White Rabbit could become more annoying, but I was wrong. Success! Lol
Lynne (18 KP) rated Mindhunter - Season 1 in TV
Jan 23, 2020
There is so much out there on this stuff I was reluctant to watch. Now I'm hooked! Not for people who are offended by language and pretty graphic descriptions of violent crimes. I like how they delve into the personal lives of each task force member to see how listening to these serial killers is so emotionally draining and seriously affecting their relationships. Fascinating look into how profiling and forensics have evolved since the 70's.

Science Fiction is not my genre, so I did not read this one by personal choice. It was assigned for a literature class which meant that as much as I did not want to finish the book, I had to. Overall, for not being my genre it was a better read than I had expected it to be. At times the story seemed confused as to the direction it was going, but I think that was intentional by Heinlein.
