Rickey A. Mossow Jr. (689 KP) rated Ghost in the Shell (2017) in Movies
Aug 5, 2019
Even in 3D and starring Scarlet Johansson, this is a convoluted mess.
I was hopeful about this one. Even took the time to make sure to watch it in 3D. I love Scarlet Johansson. Figured I had made everything possible to enjoy this film I had read many terrible reviews of. Now, 2 hours later, I just sit here empty. Sure, the movie is visually stunning. The CGI and action is well done. But all that doesn't matter without a story. Story here is convoluted and messy to say the least. There were several times when I just found myself bored and didn't care about the characters or what was happening. It's a shame something with so much potential turned into such an empty shell. Or maybe how fitting...

More than Comics ( Chasing the Dream 2)
By Elizabeth Briggs
⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've been in love with Tara long before I became a famous rock star. We talk every day. We know everything about each other. But we've never met in person.
Until now.
Four days at Comic-Con together might change everything between us. She can never know how I feel about her. I won't ruin our friendship. I can't.
But I can't resist her either. And after one hot, unforgettable night together she sees me as more than her best friend too.
Can our online relationship turn into a real life romance? Or will it destroy our friendship forever?
This was sweet, loving the Comic-Con fun mixed in too pretty easy going read. Not much more I can really say.

Kristin (149 KP) rated Heartkeeper (Heartkeeper Saga, #1) in Books
Dec 7, 2018
Disclaimer: I received an e-copy in exchange for an honest review.
In the (possibly not so distant) future, there's a Covenant between the human world and the natural one: Humans wreaked havoc on the Earth, and now they must make amends. They do this through obtaining Hearts, animal spirits that they must earn through a series of trials, proving they are of strong heart and mind and are willing to protect the lands and all its inhabitants. Adain is ready to begin his journey into adulthood, and it starts with the Heart Chase, where he must capture a Heart to call his own. Little does he know that this year's trials won't go according to plan...
This story pulled me in from the very start. Just the idea behind it alone, that humans have made a pact with the natural world to bring order back from the chaos of our time, is a fantastic concept, one that I had long discussions about with friends upon starting this series. And the way it's written makes it easily understandable for anyone, as children could read it right alongside their parents. I've already recommended this book to several people, and I look forward to the rest of the series, as well as more from this author.
5 stars =)

Merissa (12914 KP) rated Scion's Awakening (Seven Seals #3) in Books

Scion's Awakening (Seven Seals #3) by Traci Douglass
Scion's Awakening is the third book in the Seven Seals series, and we meet Wyck, whom we were briefly introduced to at the end of Chago's book. He is the resident geek, and Scion to the Seal of the Apocalypse, who in traditional opposite style, is a scientist trying to stop the world's famine problem. However, with the Nephilim involved, nothing is as simple as it seems.
This is a fast-paced story, so be prepared for it to jump a bit - one example being Quinn's reluctance to be with Wyck as he will only break her heart. Next paragraph, they are together. Now, I know, before I get shouted at, this is a novella so this happens. It was just a bit too quick.
On the whole, this was well written, and a good continuation of the series. I would have preferred to drool a bit more of Wyck's 'geekiness' which wasn't really mentioned, but that's just me! I am thoroughly enjoying this series, and look forward to continuing it. Definitely recommended by me.
