Kelly Rettie (748 KP) rated Slayer (Slayer #1) in Books
Jan 28, 2020
Loved it
Once I got past the first few chapters I really got into it. I found it to be a bit of a slow starter due to the constant negative references to Buffy, which I get that there had to be a bit of tension there, but was maybe a bit repetitive. Other than that it was a fantastic read so I pre-ordered the 2nd one which I aim to start soon.

Again, my complaint that Goodreads doesn't allow half-star ratings. Roomhate gets a 4.5/5 stars for me! I absolutely loved the story, from beginning to end. Who doesn't enjoy a relationship where love is forbidden and the sexual tension is thick enough to taste? The ending was beautiful - no ifs, ands, or buts about it. I wanted to immediately unread just so I could re-read it all over again and enjoy the pure sunshine it put into my soul. That's literally how happy the ending made me.
Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Romancing the Null (The Outlier Prophecies #1) in Books
Jan 12, 2021
First off, I don't get the name. Their wasn't much romancing of her going on. There was some tension between her and a certain werewolf but no romancing.
Then the storyline. It felt a little unexplained in background. How did these predictors come about? I know they were all some sort of paranormal descendent but..? It also got a little confusing for me with all the predictions and how the logic worked behind it.
I did like that it was different from the norm but I wasn't entirely convinced by the story.

JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated Killing Eve - Season 2 in TV
Jul 14, 2019
At the heart of the show are the interactions between Villanelle and Eve, which are far more than simple clashes of old fashioned good and evil, they are entirely complex and riveting to watch. There is palpable sexual tension between the two, but it transcends basic attraction. It is blissful to watch the chemistry between Oh and Comer act beside each other, and the show crescendos with sporadic confrontations of the two as you wait and savour these interactions that drive the narrative forward.

Ducklady (1174 KP) rated Alien (1979) in Movies
Sep 2, 2019
I have so much love for Alien
One of my favourite horror movies! The xenomorph looked fantastic and after seeing how it was all made, it makes it so much more impressive. this movie builds tension so well and Ripley is one of my favourite heroines of all time. Jones also being my favourite animal hero of all time of course. I don't think i could think of a more amazing horror monster than a chest bursting, face hugging, scary motherfucker xenomorph. it will be giving nightmares still for years to come.
Charlie (37 KP) rated Stranger Things in TV

Fun characters and great acting (1 more)
Interesting plot
One of my favourite shows
This show is always an instant watch when each season comes out. I did start watching it for the story but now it's mainly the characters. It knows how to mix tension and horror with awkward teenager moments as well as tell an interesting mystery.
My only complaint is that the second and third seasons aren't as strong as the first, some beats are missed but even then, it's still an awesome show.

Looks like meat's back on the menu boys
I love Lord of the rings for many reasons. It has great characters, tension and story. It has beautiful descriptions that help your imagination bloom. It has whole new languages. It has everything you need in a classic fantasy. The only drawback is the that it ends after a long read and you wish it continue. Overall it is one of the best fantasy books I've ever read and it set the tone for many since then. Top job Tolkien.
