Charlotte (184 KP) rated The Wayward Target (The Wayward Series #3) in Books
Apr 21, 2023
Oh my! I wasn't expecting to be pulled into this thrilling book quite as much as I was. Maggie Jenkins is likeable and relatable. I love how strong she is even when her vulnerabilities show. It's also great to have this genre of book led by a woman, a well written one at that.
The Wayward Target is so much more than I expected and I'm so pleased! It's definitely one to recommend to friends and family and if you have a book group add it to the list. If not start a book group with it!
Charlotte (184 KP) rated Mercy Creek (Jo Wyatt Mystery #2) in Books
Dec 24, 2021
If you're looking for a thrilling read that pulls you into a deadly mystery then look no further.
Ideal for a young adult plus reader, Mercy Creek, will have you hooked and slipping deep into the intrigue of this seemingly perfect town. A town protected by detective Jo Wyatt, a strong tenacious woman determined to bring the truth to light and catch a killer.
She's a brilliant detective and I really liked how her personality developed.
It's also cool that the story is a standalone but with a basic background/main character that stays the same.

Darren (1599 KP) rated Drone (2017) in Movies
Sep 13, 2019
The concept and premise of this film is actually a clever one that if in the right hands could have been so much more impactful and thrilling, but the way they present things here just doesn’t work well at all.
Bean himself has always been a very solid actor but his performance here is quite mediocre and any attempt by him to make his character or the situation he finds himself in to be realistic fails to deliver.
The movie has much too many plot holes within the story which detract so much from being able to enjoy what they give us.
This is especially true when the story goes off on pointless tangents that don’t add to the story at hand at all.
Loved seeing Mary McCormack and Joel David Moore in supporting roles, yet neither is utilized nearly enough here and they both come across as being caricatures which is quite a shame.
For a thriller, this film is lacking heavily on the thrilling or suspenseful moments that would make it fit even better into the genre…
Pity….
Bottom Line – Very interesting concept that unfortunately isn’t presented very well at all. Bean is a solid actor, but he fails to make his character or the situation that he finds himself in seem realistic enough. The story is filled with way too many plot holes that detract from the enjoyment of this idea because it goes off on numerous tangents that aren’t really connected to anything worthwhile. Loved seeing Moore and McCormick in supporting roles, but neither of their characters are developed beyond a superficial level which is a shame. Isn’t nearly as thrilling as a film in the thriller genre should be.
