Dr. Bree Mayfield-Watson is most comfortable solving chemistry problems and logically looking at things. She never signed up to find her boss murdered in a secured building and is considered the number one suspect. Who wanted him dead and why are they framing Bree?

Unlike most cozy mysteries, Bree is not your average amateur detective doing illogical and impulsive things to solve the mystery. Refreshingly, she uses her brain, keen sense of observation, and trusty notebook to analyze the facts and formulate who is the real murderer.

My favorite part was being caught up in who the potential murder was and then finding out I was so wrong!

If you start reading this book you won't stop!this book is written like a conversation between two people. It will guide you through the biggest questions of life and gives you an easy way to see solutions for problems in life with the '' Adler psychology '' - fo everyone who doesn't know it Adler was a great psychologist, same time as Freud and saw life a bit different. Long story short : everything can be changed - the opposite of Freud who thought what happened to you as a child will define the rest of your life.
This book is written in an easy way and is an absolute page turner ?

I'm very much enjoying how Sweterlitsch combines Sci-Fi and mystery in very engaging thought provoking ways. I've read, watched, and consumed a lot of time travel stories. There are tons of bad ones, but this is an excellent take and surprisingly takes care of a few plot hole problems inherent in time travel stories. As someone who has been trying to write a time travel story for over 8 years, I really appreciate good stories that help to revive my passion for the genre.

I'm really excited to find out what they do with the movie adaptation, and I'm really enjoying Sweterlitsch's work. I look forward to his future projects.

Call me, Master Chief!
Cadet Thomas Lasky and fellow students train at Corbulo military academy. Lasky is unsure of his path and suffering from emotional conflict causing problems with his fellow cadets. One night, the academy is heavily attacked buy alien insurrectionists causing a Galactic civil war.
This is where the cadets must lay down all issues with eachother and work together if their going to survive the night.
With surprise help from a mysterious ally, a legendary armoured super-soldier known as the Master Chief.

This movie by Microsoft studios & 343 industries is definitive proof that a multi billion dollar production isn't what make a great sci fi, action movie.
  
This one was just as good as the first even though it was a lot different from the first. Not as much humor in this one as the first but just as much amazing plots. The twists and problems that came for Susan were very interesting. I loved the fact that not everything was easy now that she was a vampire. I felt bad for her in many places because of the other vampire doing what they were doing to her, but loved that she fought back. Very good author and series. Big thank you to the author for picking me to read and review this series.

Best super heros show in a long while
I have to say when i looked at the pictures and trailer for this show i thought it was going to be a spoof superheros show. However i was very wrong. This show is brilliant and dark and full of real world problems being adressed in a brilliant way. Ive always been a marvel girl over Dc so i actually knew nothing about this coming in. I have to say its a refreshing change of pace. I am loving this series so far and if you havent seen it yet i would say its a must watch.
  
I thought this book was in the middle. I liked it. I think I would understand it a little bit more if I read the second book before this one. I think it would make sense a bit more. It still good with out reading the second book in this series. I will let you decide for yourselves.


The book focus on Gideon and find the faith. Lonnie need to learn to deal with her own problems as does Gideon. You also see a friendship and others in on it. I do not want to give anything away so I will leave it here.

A % of time to an OK App
One of my biggest problems was the ability to make changes to an interact with Pages that I managed - they got that fixed. That was always my biggest problem with the Facebook app.

I really like my ability to stay connected with people in my life using Facebook. The unfortunate thing is that the algorithm that they use to drive what show on your feed not only gives you all the bad, it teaches us to promote the bad and the tragic that we see.

My rule for Facebook: Only the good.

The Fix for Coup
If you wanted to play Coup with more people, this is for you.

Reformation is a necessary expansion for an already great game. It replaces the Ambassador class, which was the only broken class in the original expansion. It also adds teams, which can be changed on the fly, and add a completely new dynamic to the game.

If it was more money, I would say that this expansion doesn't change enough to be worth it. But for around $10, it is completely worth fixing some of the problems from the original games.

Black Boy White School was a book that I thoroughly enjoyed. For many people, they feel this not really belonging anywhere at some point in their life, just as our main character here did.

I was very sad at the end of the book because I was really hoping that he would continue at Belton Academy. However, due to financial problems, he was unable to return.

I would love to read a sequel to this book. Lots of interesting topics could be pursued, especially if he remains in Cleavland (such as how he deals with no longer fitting in, how he deals with violence, etc.)
