Andrew Furlong (14 KP) rated Star Trek III - The Search for Spock (1984) in Movies
Sep 27, 2017
Lots of campy fun in the vein of TOS (2 more)
Christopher Lloyd is a Klingon
Lots of good character moments
Not as many memorable moments (though there are a few) (1 more)
Does kind of feel like franchise maintenance (bringing back a fan favorite character)
A good movie overshadowed because it's in between two great ones
Search for Spock is a good movie, but is largely forgotten because it is in between two great ones. There's just not as much here to make it noteworthy as in II or IV. There aren't really any major problems though and it is a fun watch.

Kelly Alvarado (3 KP) rated Wonder Woman (2017) in Movies

I'm glad it was better than I thought it would be
D.C. Should just give Patty Jenkins anything she wants. She made a well thought out blockbuster with heart and brains. I love the world she created for Diana and woukd love to revisit the island. Other than some pacing problems I had, this was the movie that I had hoped it would be. Loved Gal gadot and I am curious to see Diana/WW and her interaction with people of those times.

ClareR (5784 KP) rated Vanguard (The Genesis Fleet 1) in Books
Jan 14, 2018
Well, I was surprised!!
My first Jack Campbell book, and it won't be my last! I should probably have read the Lost Fleet series first as this is the start of the prequel series. This was fast paced, exciting and kept me interested enough over Christmas and New Year whilst the family watched all of the repeated movies! This follows Rob Geary and his fellow explorers, as they set up home on a new planet and all of the problems they have with a neighbouring star system.
I'll be keeping an eye out for the rest of the series!

Story Line (3 more)
Relate-able content (apart from the magic)
Magical
So much detail
The Begining
This is the start of a magical journey. Once you start reading, you won't stop until you've read all 7 and watched all 8 movies. It has so much details. So many people can relate to characters with real life problems from PTSD, Anxiety, ETC and people can relate to the emotions you read about from embarrassment, jealousy and sadness.
Once you're hooked, most of your bank account gets emptied. There's so many add on books, movies and other types of merchandise you can buy.

Shannon Dowden (2 KP) rated Amazon Kindle in Apps

Amazon Kindle for PC
Easy to use and very customizable, I love my Kindle for PC. I have had it for about thirteen years. Each time I have to buy a new computer because my old one died, I download my Kindle off of my Amazon account right away. My books are in the cloud, and I have safely downloaded them to my new computer with no problems.

Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated Perry Panda: A Story about Parental Depression in Books
Apr 10, 2018
This is the book that concerned parent, grandparent or even healthcare professions should have available to them.
This book raises the topic of when children blame themselves for the problems of the parent. This story sees a little panda upset and thinking he is a bad boy to make his mummy so sad, but grandma carefully explains and supports him to understand that sometimes mummies need time to heal and simply be.
A book that both me and my 4-year-old daughter have enjoyed and has raised the difficult conversation with her over why mummy is sometimes sad. Thank you.

graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated A Christmas Baby (Rogues Club, #4) in Books
Feb 15, 2019
A nice close to the Rogue series, if, and I hate be redundant, a bit unoriginal. The characters were nice, there were some funny moments, and the plot was good, but it didn't touch me like other romances do. However, I did like the whole Christmas thing at the end, it was cute if rather saccharine.
One of my main problems was that this series must have the worst editors. In all four books there are missing quotation marks, sentences that aren't clear, and misspelled/or forgotten words. I would hope that these would be minimal.

Auburn (57 KP) rated The New Guy (and Other Senior Year Distractions) in Books
Apr 10, 2019
I would rate this a solid good. Mediocre but enjoyable.
Jules is your non average high school senior. Focusing only on getting into Brown and the newspaper. That is until the new guy, a former boy band singer, comes to school. Now she must decide what is more important. With a lot of problems, misteps, and mistakes Jules must learn what it means to be a good friend and a team player.
While I enjoyed the premise and the cute couples I found myself skimming to get to the end faster.
Perfect for those who want a lot of drama with their stories.
