Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Doctor Who: 100 in Books
Jan 12, 2018
Just the opposite from my last Big Finish review, (check out www.travelingthevortex.com for more thoughts). These four short vignettes are good. (Well, the first one is merely okay, the second and fourth ones are good. The third, "Bedtime Story" is hands down one of the best audios I have EVER listened too. I don't have enough words to describe how awesome this one is.
Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Defending Hayden (Second Chances, #7) in Books
May 7, 2019
this book is part of a series but can be read as a standalone. I really enjoyed this book, the characters were fab and the story was well written. this book is definitely a sweet read but it is a short one, leaving you wanting more at the end. the ending is fab and the book ends perfectly

Jan 30, 2018
Totally cute story. My kids enjoyed it. The said that it was cool that the bird wasnt scared to fail and they liked that she kept trying and working at it. They really enjoyed it and I liked that it was short enough and moved enough that it kept the attention of all 5 kids lok. I am very glad I got to review this one

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2324 KP) rated Crime de Cocoa (A Chocoholic Mystery #1-3) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The collection of the first three Chocoholic mysteries plus the short story that was set and released before the series started. If you haven't started the series, this might be the place to start. The stories are light but fun and the characters are great.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Wayworn Lovers in Books
Jun 14, 2018
This book had some holes in the plot but not enough to sink it. The characters made up for what was lacking and since this is a character driven story it worked. Brooke did a good job describing anxiety issues and that made Giselle seem more authentic. This gets four stars from me because despite the short fallings it was still a pleasure to read.
AT (1676 KP) rated Congratulations, by the way in Books
Jan 8, 2019
This was George Saunders' convocation speech that he gave at Syracuse University. He speaks about kindness, and being kind throughout your lifetime. It was a nice speech, but I wasn't as moved as I thought I'd be. I think it's because I recently read Mr. Saunders' short story, Fox 8. Fox 8 was a million times more of an emotional event for me than this speech was.
David McK (3547 KP) rated Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and Other Tales in Books
Jan 30, 2019
One of the classics of English literature, this short story is also by the same author who wrote "Treasure Island" (amongst others).
What I found interesting, though, is in how Mr Hyde is described within: unlike the malformed gaint monstrosity that is familiar form TV and film, Hyde is actually described as younger than Jekyll and of a lesser stature, while still projecting an aura of evil.

This was over before I even knew it and my heart is threatening to pound straight through my chest. Why do I persist in reading these things right before bedtime is a mystery to me but man, this short story was fantastic and packs one heck of a fright. I am completely enthralled with the authors and look forward to devouring more of these books.
