KittyMiku (138 KP) rated Goodreads: Book Reviews in Apps
Mar 21, 2019
I love Goodreads since it allows me to track my goals, see who is reading what and what I read. I also enjoy being able to see if I liked a book or not. Nothing like deciding to reread a book only to remember that you hated it. I fully enjoy how easy this app is and how useful it can be when making a list of must reads. Knowing what I want to read, what I feel I need to read and what I have already read, has helped me keep on track with my annual goal of reading 100 books

Compelling story
Jessica Chastain
If you lived in the USA after 9/11, the fact that Osama bin Laden was alive was like an open wound. Many Americans felt like there would never be closure to the events at the World Trade Center until he was brought to justice.
The sheer persistence of the CIA and the Justice Department in never giving up even after years of trying to hunt him down and tragedy within their own ranks is a testament to American will, drive and ambition.
Whatever your personal feelings on torture, this film walks the line of being objective and lets the viewer draw their own conclusions.
Very compelling film.

This book was a really enjoyable read.
Ultimately a love story, but also a story of loss, dealing with grief, betrayal and personal growth set in a beautiful landscape.
It was an easy read, despite a slightly slow start and once the characters met, the story seemed to pick up and was certainly more engaging.
I loved the format of the writing, the back and forth between Zoe and Martins stories was done very well and even with the retelling of certain parts from the different perspective, the story moved on perfectly.
The extra characters were also great additions, whilst not detracting from the main story of the two main characters.
I would definitely recommend this book.

Overall it was a fun read. There were some true laugh out loud moments in this book which I truly enjoyed. There were a few parts that I felt were unnecessary (personal opinion probably) but it was a fast book and felt complete in the end (somewhat) I felt perhaps the end could have been different.. but only slightly. I felt satisfied but slightly unsatisfied at the same time!
Rook is adorable and Isobel is sweet but critical of everything. It's like a glass half empty situation with that one. I really enjoyed Gadfly from the beginning, Lark was a character all on her own level - the writing was quite fast paced and seamless.

On Your Mark, Get Set, Go!!!!!
I finally got the chance to watch this movie and oh boy it was excellent, the chemistry between Bale and Damon is phenomenal, the plot is fantastic, the racing is like your actaully their. James Mangold did a perfect job directing this movie.
The Plot: American automotive designer Carroll Shelby and fearless British race car driver Ken Miles battle corporate interference, the laws of physics and their own personal demons to build a revolutionary vehicle for the Ford Motor Co. Together, they plan to compete against the race cars of Enzo Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France in 1966.
A must watch film, if you havent seen it yet.

EVERY MAN WANTS HER. MANY WANT TO KILL HER.
Good luck to them….
In the second beautifully-crafted paranormal romance of this reverse harem epic fantasy series, author Auryn Hadley explores Sal’s gently-morphing relationship to the Black Blades—her comarades-in-arms and lovers ...
I'm just so in love with these books! We are back with Sal and her men. They are dealing with the backlash of coming out as all Iliri and finding the steel. Also figuring out where they stand in personal relationships. Balec brings in other elite teams to help with bringing home the steel but with it comes the race issues against Iliri. This was so good!
