ClareR (6256 KP) rated Meet Me In Another Life in Books
Jul 13, 2021
If there was an option for more than 10/10, I’d pick that one. I absolutely loved this book. The writing is simply gorgeous, the storyline is fascinating, the ending is both perfect and heartbreaking. And that’s all I’ll say, other than: just read it.
Many thanks to the Pigeonhole for serialising this. I hate to think that I would probably have missed it otherwise.

4.5 stars
I was so engaged in this story. It was so long but so good at the same time. I loved Kulti after a while, the Pumpernickel really grew on me and then that bit near the end! I felt like crying happy tears! The other character I loved: Sal's dad! I bet the author had a blast writing him, such a fun character.

Amy Adams
Sci-Fi Eye Candy
Denis Villeneuve effectively presents a Sci-Fi film with as much heart as it does terrifying visuals. Amy Adams is an absolute powerhouse and deserved recognition from the Academy in this film. Brilliant cinematography throughout, bookended by remarkable writing. A must-see for Science Fiction fans. 10/10

Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf (Naked Werewolf, #1) in Books
Apr 27, 2018
How To Flirt with a Naked Werewolf was a cute fun quick read. I was sucked into the story right away by the fun witty voice of the interior monologue, relaxed writing style, and likeable characters (oh ok and drool-worthy male protagonist). I don't often find such a fun writing style or voice from romance novels, but Molly Harper has surprised me. She used creative descriptions, character, and personality in her writing.
(minor spoiler alert, this paragraph only!) The plot itself was a little "twilight-esque" with the whole "we can't be together so I'm going to leave and be emo" thing, the "I'm too dangerous for you" thing, and the constant nausea and realizing she's pregnant thing. But I liked Mo a lot better than Bella (who, can I just say, deserved an emo masochist) so I'm not too bothered by it. Plus, these 370 pages had just as much plot—and maybe more—than the entire twilight saga combined. Then again that's not hard to do.
I really enjoyed this book and would pick up the next ones in the series if I had money and a job. Alas, I have $0.70 in my checking account and no income. I'll have to pick it up over the summer when I get my job back…
Content: some sex, mild language. Ages 18+

Sarah (7800 KP) rated Conversations With Friends in Books

Utterly unlikeable
Whilst Sally Rooney’s second novel Normal People was fairly likeable, I’m afraid to say that this doesn’t apply to this first book. For starters, I find Rooney’s writing and grammatical style very irritating and not what I’d consider to be proper grammar. It’s definitely not the way I was taught and it does get very frustrating reading a book where you can barely define where descriptive text ends and conversation begins.
After a while though you do get used to the writing style, however the main problem with this book is the horrendously unlikeable characters. Frances as the main protagonist is a horrible self absorbed person who doesn’t appear to have any kind thoughts or decent emotions, or any common sense. And sadly the rest of the characters don’t fare much better. It’s a very difficult to like a book when every character is so flawed and valid and self absorbed. The conversations had between some of these people are just jumped up nonsense, and whilst I don’t doubt there are people who have these conversations in real life, I really don’t want to read this in a book. The plot itself isn’t terrible and despite the strange writing style is fairly well written, it’s just a shame it’s spoilt by some terrible characters.
