May 15, 2017
As we are puzzling out Hawley’s stories, we’re also given a present day look into Loo’s life after too many moves, no real friends and a traveling bathroom shrine to honor her dead mother.

BookCritics (259 KP) rated The Refugees in Books
May 16, 2017
The one word that comes to mind through all these stories is haunting, which brings it all back to the two statements at the beginning of the book. Based on that, I will be adding The Sympathizer to my reading list.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Moonlight (2016) in Movies
Jun 22, 2017
Moonlight is an important film that is of a good quality – these types of stories need to be told and hopefully with the Best Picture win, more will. The acting across the board is good and impressive ...

[Out of War] by [Sara Cameron] is the story of the Children's Movement for Peace in Columbia. It is a non fiction book written for lower readers. The high interest of the topic, especially to many ELL students, will be a help but the way the stories are told is dull and could be written better.

"Thoughtful apocalyptic concept"
This novel mixes an apocalyptic scenario with real life dramas from a bygone era. The various narratives are engaging and the back and forth stories knit together all the different subplots. The fact that it surrounds a troupe of performers with a past history in the arts makes for a different kind of dystopian fiction.

Respectful yet still new
This Sherlock Holmes variant is wonderful. The team that has created this series has truly respected the essence and artistry of the original stories of Holmes and Watson by Arthur Conan Doyle and yet found a way to make them fresh, approachable, and almost addicting, to the modern audience.
Mothergamer (1619 KP) rated the PlayStation 4 version of The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind in Video Games
May 19, 2018
Adds a lot of good content with interesting quests and stories. I always have fun playing this with my friends whether it's exploring different areas together or just working on crafting. There's a lot to do in the game solo or with other players. I play this on the PC and Playstation 4 and have a lot of fun.

A classic
I still love this story after countless readings and about as many reboots. Few are unfamiliar with the story, which lends itself well to contemporary retellings. But I enjoy revisiting the original now and then. It's a very quick read, and one of my favorite ghost stories and tales of redemption. If Scrooge can change, who can't?

Dumbledores commentaries (1 more)

Short and sweet
A great addition to the wizarding world collection. This is a short but sweet read with a few stories that are "classics for young wizards". JK Rowling was clever to think of adding commentaries by Dumbledore after each story, this really feels like Dumbledore is engaging with the reader. What's not to like?
