Dana (24 KP) rated The Complete Poems 1927-1979 in Books
Mar 23, 2018
I enjoyed reading Elizabeth Bishop's poems. She writes simply, but it is still beautiful. I enjoyed how much she varies in her writings instead of just writing the same thing over and over again. One of my favorite poems was "Crusoe in England" because it took the story of Robinson Crusoe and showed what Crusoe was feeling after he returned from the island.
Overall, I enjoyed reading this book of poetry.

<i>So. Many. Short. Stories.</i>
Sometimes these kinds of weird, old school, random books really hook me, but I can't explain why. This is one of them. This story has the most simple of plot lines, yet it does so well to inflict fear and excitement into the reader.
I loved the writing. I loved the tension. I loved the plot. I loved the psychopath. I loved the ending.

Isnt fiction such an amazing thing? That you can read a 10 page piece of writing that draws you in and chills you to the bone
incredible.
This one is instantly unsettling, and maybe its not the most unpredictable ending in the world, but its done in such an amazing way that youll feel the goosebumps rise on your arms.
An excellent little horror story.

Another miss for me, maybe I just flat out don't like Gaiman's writing. I thought this novel was boring, and I listened to the audiobook. I know Gaiman narrated the audiobook, but his voice got so whiny, I almost didn't finish it. Sadly, I did, and I'm glad I was just driving listening to it, and not wasting my free time.
Sorry, not sorry about the low rating.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Four: The Initiate (Divergent, #0.2) in Books

So, I finally can say that I finished the series. I have to say, I was unimpressed with the last two in the Divergent series so I didn't have high hopes for this one.
I surprisingly liked this book. I forgot how much I liked Four & it was interesting to learn more about him as a character. The writing was good and I enjoyed listening to this as an audiobook.

Amazing Courtroom Drama
This is the movie that introduced me to the genre that is the courtroom drama. This movie speaks to a lot of issues as well as being extremely well thought out. Tom Cruise really shines in his role in this movie and is especially good in the final act of the film. I would highly recommend this film to anyone who is a movie buff.
Well this book was certainly a journey!! After it opening at the end, then going all the way back to the beginning of Delias story, I read eagerly to get back to the end of the story to find out what had happened! And what a story it was! As flawed as Delia was, her story was engaging, entertaining and the flow of the writing made it a very easy read.

Relatable, heart-rending writing
Anne’s honest and open aspirations are cruelly cut short at the end of the diary entries and her life. The universal grief experienced the first time I reached the end (after feeling as though I had become her best friend) will never leave me.

Murder Has No Lives
Jaine's mystery did not live up to the back cover, which is disappointing as there was so much potential. What could have been was tossed out for a subplot and the whole ending was rushed as if the author remembered what she was suppose to be writing about.
