Kari Bendler (2 KP) rated Skyscraper (2018) in Movies

Its action-y. Stuff blows up, things fall down, crazy "that could never happen" plot. Is it entertaining? Yes. Would I watch it again on another platform? Probably. Is it going to get added to the 100 movies you must see before you doe? No.
The gist: if you like action movies and ate looking to be entertained for a bit, you won't be sad that you watched this movie.

Hush Hush Series by Becca Fitzpatrick
Finished: April 24th, 2019
This series was amazing and has a very emotional ending. I chose to read this series because it's about Fallen Angels. I love Patch's and Nora's relationship and all they went through I'm happy they got the happy ending they deserved. I cried when Patch was able to feel in the end but wish Scott's ending was better though and wished he had survived the war. I was not expecting Vee to be Nephil as well. Marcie's end was sad as well but I'm really glad it worked out for Patch, Nora and her mom in the end.
Do I recommend? Yes

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Scarred Love (Sulfur Heights, #1) in Books
May 7, 2019
the author has wrote a very graphic tale but in a sensitive tone. the first chapter sets the tone for the rest of the book. this book is a beautiful book which contains some hard hitting story lines that will pull at your heart. the characters are very well thought out and work really well. this book will draw you in and keep you hooked till the last page. I couldn't put this book down, it was sad one minute, funny the next keeping you gripped. the book has a lovely ending and gets you ready for the next in the series

Christine Allard (22 KP) rated My Favorite Murder with Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark in Podcasts
Jan 26, 2018
Hysterical, and a little eerie.
Two true friends with a passion for true crime take an oftentimes hysterical, but also sad and somber look at murder cases over the centuries. It's a great, quick, lightweight fix for folks who enjoyed Dirty John, Wrongful Conviction, and This American Life. It's light on the editing, and high on the community connection. They also poke at things that are creepy and while not all the murders have resolution, there's always something interesting and nothing that'll give you nightmares.

I love Sloan - I think Oriana is a bit annoying - woe is me until further toward the end where she gets more into herself - guess that's growth as a character which I like anyway.
I love Vanek too - he's my bae - I can't believe I haven't read his book yet and that makes me sad, just a taste of it at the end, wahhh!!!
Max and Dominick are just background noise to me in this book - neither stood out and neither were special to me in any way.
I love hockey books and the story and the end were pretty sweet too. Random thoughts - I adore this series though perhaps I'll go to Vaneks book next!

Wow- I wasn't expecting that
What a brilliant story! I bought this book on Monday and by Wednesday evening I was sad, that it ended.
The story takes place in Cambridge University. There's been way too many suicides in one year for it to go unnoticed. DC Flint goes in undercover to investigate but due to her troubled past becomes the perfect victim herself.
Very gripping, kept me on edge from the beginning till the end.
How have I never come across Sharon Bolton before, I don't know. Need to get hold of 'Now you see me'- a bit backward, I know, but what can I do :-)

WOW
Full Disclosure: I won a digital copy of this book through a Smashbomb giveaway.
It was an Amazing read. I was hooked from the first sentence. I enjoyed the unique way the story was told, and I felt like Paige every time she asked what happened next? It was a great story, even sad as it was, and I really enjoyed that it talked about something so real. As far as the writing style though, I did skim through some spots and only read the dialog because I was much more interested in Ava's story than in what drink or snack they were getting from the coffee shop girl next. Overall, I enjoyed the story though.

Wow
FINALLY! A creature feature that is worthy of the genre! John Krasinski pulls out all the stops in this monster flick-directing AND acting in it. With hardly any lines spoken this movie has an intensity that is off the charts. There's really not much gore but the monsters may be a little scary for young kids. The cinematography, effects, acting and storyline are great. If you enjoy movies like Cloverfield, Allens and other intense monster movies you'll really enjoy this one. The kids in this did an outstanding job. It had a sad beginning but it only added to the dynamic of the family story. This one is really worth a watch!

I love this game a lot.
A car and football, blended together. I play it on PC with my X-Box Controller and I am so happy.
The most exciting moments for me were when each game would end, I would receive a certain loot.
And now, they implemented a new update - with Tiers, same as hmmm... FORTNITE!
If you can buy it, you'll get loot. If not - you have to wait until you level up.
Now I am not so eager to play anymore. My rating was 9/10. Now it's dropped down to a 4/10.
Sad...
P.S - when choosing platform, you can't choose PC :(

A heartwarming read
Whilst this is definitely a very well written and heartening read, I'm surprised at some of the reviews mentioning the unpredictability of the twists and turns. For me the downside to this book was that it was very predictable. This isn't unsurprising as it is a drama/romance, and I've read a lot of books so nothing surprises me anymore. But this didn't spoil my enjoyment of the book too much. It was still a heart warming tale with a well developed and relatable main character, with a truly sad and interesting story. There's a lot of important and poignant messages this book raises, and it makes for a very thought provoking read.
