Superheroes, time travel, doughnuts and talking chimps
Contains spoilers, click to show
Another day another superhero tv show - right?? Well this one is really something special. Was hooked from episode 1. The best way I can describe it is a not as dark watchmen tv series. Bunch of kids with powers adopted by man who turns them into a superhero team. Years later they reunite when their 'father' dies. Then happens time travel, drugs, assassins, talking chimps, bird watching, robots, JFK conspiracies, the apocalypse and doughnuts! Like watchmen this has an amazing soundtrack which adds to the quality of the show. This would get 10 out of 10 but I just find Ellen Page terrible and every scene with her just made me cringe so (SPOILER) when she turns out to be the villain (sort of) I was quite pleased!! Watch this show!!!
Rosealinea (589 KP) rated A Star Is Born Soundtrack by Lady Gaga in Music
Mar 11, 2019
I won this album from a giveaway here on Smashbomb! I was absolutely delighted to receive it and as I am a Lady gaga fan, I couldn't wait to listen to it.
I popped it in and I'm really sad to say that I was very disappointed with it. There are a lot of talking snippets throughout the album, which didn't really seem to fit or make sense in any way. It left me feeling somewhat confused as it was a soundtrack.
As far as the music goes, I really wanted to like this album so much, but it was all very generic and samey throughout. The tracks seemed to run into one and I got bored listening to it, however, I listened to it in its entirety.
I'm really sorry to say that I would not recommend this album (Sorry guys)

This is my new favorite show
Yeah, I am a little behind the times. Im only on season 5 but this show cracks me up. It’s rare to find a show with intelligent humor. I am constantly having to look things up so that I understand what they are talking about. I love a show that makes me learn. And Mayim Bialik is hilarious!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2426 KP) rated The Horse and His Boy (Chronicles of Narnia, #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A marriage proposal to a grown Susan is really just a plot to take over Narnia, and the only people who can stop it are a run away slave and a talking horse. A fun adventure that has grown on me the more times I've read it.

I wanted to read this after seeing Kate Summerscale at the Hay Festival talking about the book. I found that I felt very different at the end of the talk to how I felt at the beginning!
A really interesting story and Robert Coombs becomes a real person to the reader across the book.
This would be a good read if you are interested in social history and/or psychology.
