Lindsay (1786 KP) rated The Quilter's Apprentice (Elm Creek Quilts, #1) in Books

Feb 15, 2018

This was a well thought book to read. It about a Old woman and her home a bit along with quilting. We find out some things about Mrs. Compson. We also learn about her family history a bit and Elm Creek Manor. It quite a sweet story.

If you decide to pick this book up and start reading you will finding out the family history of Elm Creek Manor. Sarah is hired to be a personal assistant to help clean up the Manor. Matt is in charge of the restoration of the Manor.

This book is about forming friendships, relationships and quilting. You will be amazed by what all in the this book and what is about.

I love the lists section and doesn't think it gets the attention it deserves mostly because it is kind of boring (sorry). I used to do all sorts of fun movies lists, but it is mostly become "Movies I've seen" or "Books I want to read" which is kind of boring if I am not you and aren't necessarily interested in seeing that.

Maybe you would look at a list like "20 movies with great use of color" or "Books that fascinate and entertain at the same time".

My thought maybe would be separate lists somehow into "Personal Lists", "To Watch or To Read Lists" and then "Lists Just for fun" or something like that.

What do y'all think?

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.

Movie Rating Watch

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.

Lyndsey Gollogly (2893 KP) rated Instinctual (Rise of Iliri book 2) in Books

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!
