I have loved this whole series, and the finale to the Green Creek quadrilogy (I think that’s a word!) is no exception. There’s the content that I’ve come to love this series for: family (both genetic and found), love, friendship, acceptance, excitement, fear, joy - and a happy ending. That’s something that the inhabitants of Green Creek deserve, after all.

Whatever will I do without this series? Other than go back to the beginning and start again, of course. Because that’s a perfectly acceptable thing to do, isn’t it!

Look, I know this might seem like a very uncharacteristic series for me to get caught up in, but sometimes life throws curveballs that you need to find some escape from. And TJ Klune just does that for me. These books are my shut-the-world-out books. The goodies are good, decent people, and the baddies get their just desserts. Nothing wrong with that at all. Read what makes you happy, read what makes you feel better informed, read what educates you, read what snatches you up into another world you’d never otherwise experience (my favourite kind of books, incidentally).

This series really should be read in order, so I’m giving you permission to go and buy all four books or borrow them from your library, OK?

The beginning of the greatest sci-fi series ever made
This movie would forever define a new generation of science fiction film making in the years to come.

Another good entry
This franchise has a fairly consistent track record at this point and this movie was a fitting send of to series star Paul Walker.

Stylish but shallow
This remake of the classic series could have hit with a harder punch than it did, but it’s still an enjoyable romp worth watching.

Engaging series
The story line is excellent. This show is reminiscent of the movies I loved as a child. It had enough surprises to keep my attention and characters I cared about.

Recommend Me
Looking for a good book in the fantasy/ sci-fi genre. I have enjoyed books/series like Starless, Harry Potter, the Wheel of Time, the Dragonriders of Pern, Awaken Online and the Super Powereds.

Good but doesn't live up to the books.
Unfortunately not on a par with the books. Probably perfectly passable as a stand alone. As a fan of the book series I felt let down.
  
Fruits Basket, Season 1

The 2019 version of Fruits Basket is out! Well, the first couple of episodes, at least. It looks like it'll be great. Hopefully they can go farther with this series than the last one.

Great movie, very true to what soldiers experienced. Probably a contributing factor to Band of Brothers series which was also phenomenal. Well researched.
