Who ya Gonna Call
One of the most iconic movies of the 1980's. 3 scientists believe there is a way to catching a ghost and keeping trapped in a containment system. A single woman believes she is being haunted by a ghost and seeks their help With the help of a 4th they are accomplishing their goal when of course a federal government worker screws it all up and unleashes hell on NY.
This movie will always be known for it's lovable casts (RIP Harold Ramis) and great antics. The movie is full of comedy and action and a 50ft marshmallow man what cant be fun about that.

The length
Such an interesting podcast
I really love listening to this podcast it is completely different every single episode, pretty much the guest that appears on the show decides where it’s going to go and what that episode is going to be like. This show is amazing because it just shows how meaningful human connection is and how much each of us are wanting to have a connection. Each of the guests have never talked to the host before and the host doesn’t know exactly what they’re going to be talking about so it leads for an interesting show every time.

THE MAIN CHARACTER
Is this going to happen to us???
There was not a single thing I didn't like about this show. It had me hooked from the beginning. I felt extremely involved and connected to the characters. This show made me think about the whole scenario if I were in the same spots as these girls and how I would react.
I also think the Handmaiden's show the real purpose and necessity for community. Without each other being able to communicate with each other, most of them would not have lasted as long as they did.
I am so ready for season 2.

Katie Guinn (34 KP) rated Two Girls Down: A Novel in Books
Dec 7, 2018
Kylie and Bailey Brandt vanish from a shopping mall parking lot while their mother is buying a birthday present. Single mom Jamie quickly realizes that the overworked local police department is not the best option for finding her daughters, so she hires former bounty hunter Alice Vega, famous for finding missing people. Vega partners up with ex-cop/private investigator Max “Cap” Caplan to find the sisters. The result is a tense, twisty ride that I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved Alice Vega, she reminded me of Lisbeth Salander: tougher than battery acid, but completely awkward at personal interaction. I’m really looking forward to more books featuring her character.
Micky Barnard (542 KP) rated How to Stop Time in Books
Sep 30, 2018
This is my first read by Matt Haig. HOW TO STOP TIME is unique, deep, sometimes long-winded, sad, desperate and interesting. It has a past-present approach to story telling that worked very well.
The protagonist, Tom doesn’t age, at least not normally. He’s met Shakespeare, he’s loved but he’s lost so deeply and he remembers so much. This is a tale of such longing and of the inertia of existing for so long. It’s tragic, not particularly uplifting or depressing but it left me somewhat sad.
I particularly enjoyed the original storyline but I struggled occasionally with the pacing.
The audio narration, male single POV was very good.

Yoshi (40 KP) rated Fairy Bad Day in Books
Oct 29, 2018
First off, I always try to finish what I start, but this book just wasn't worth it. I only got 3/4 of the way through. <s>The LotR fanfiction I found was much more interesting.</s>
Anyways, this book has lots of flaws: Main character is too Mary-Sue-ish and whiny, one of the characters keeps spouting astrology BS every single chapter, too many cliches, and the author does not seem to understand that fey are more than just pixies.
Now, if you want a GOOD book involving fey that takes place in the modern-day, try The Iron King by Julie Kagawa, not this one.

Laugh of loud funny
I have never raved about a book so much. I don't think that there is a single person who has come into my proximity that I haven't told to read this! It is sooo funny and I just couldn't put it down! The fact that it is based on the doctor's true experiences makes it even better!
I wouldn't recommend reading this in public by yourself however, especially when you are sat in the waiting room at the GP. People are likely to look at you and think you are very strange when you are full on laughing out loud with tears running down your face!
