    She was very manipulative and folks believed her because of her powerful position but things take a crazy twist in season 2. Its really a psychological thriller season if you ask me...shows how a person's dramatic past can really effect their minds...and folks just snap!!!

  • The Lost Boy's gift cover
    The Lost Boy's gift by Holt, Kimberly Willis,
    ☆☆☆☆☆

    Enchanting story of lonely 9 year old Daniel who moves across country with his mom after his parents' divorce. The quiet neighborhood of While-a-Way Lane, his new street, smells of cotton candy and has an unusual Ferris wheel on library grounds.

    Because  most residents are away on spring break and his mother works outside the home, Daniel, is left to his own devices. He befriends 2 squirrels, Dewey the Postman, Tilda Butter who communicates with animals and insects, Tilda's dog Fred, and a protective host of fireflies. Everyone has a gift, and Daniel must find his.

    This tender blend of realism and fantasy explores themes of separation, loss, divorce, acceptance, intergenerational friendship, and noticing the smallest details that can change a day from ordinary to extraordinary. Lovely! Highly Recommend for Grades 4-6. Marianne Bucci, Head, Children's Depr., Northeast Regional Library. 2/25/22

    Drama. Based On True Events. Determination. Entrepreneurship. Bodybuilding.

    I like this film because it is based on true events. The Weider brothers had a dream and they were not afraid to go for it. Although I am not really familiar with weight lifting and bodybuilding, however,  this story of two brothers push to create a place in the world for this sport is interesting. It took many years, but, the dream came forth.  Their fitness and nutrient magazines for men and women are available worldwide today.

    Comedy. Romance. Heart-warming. Memorable Characters. Steady pace. Hilarious. Fun to watch. Awesome Cast.

    I enjoyed watching this movie because it has a lot of funny characters that you can really relate to. The film is predictable, but, it was fun to watch. I like the way Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall plays multiple very funny characters. The costumes and the music were suitable for the film. If you like romantic comedy....you will enjoy this movie.  Don't miss Samuel L. Jackson's quick appearance. Even though the film is rated R ....it is not loaded with lot of foul language

    Based on True Events. Intense Drama. Racial Injustice. Police Brutality. Heartbreaking. Gripping. Violent .Disturbing.

    This film was based on true event which made it hard to watch at times. The same unrest exist today. Racism is still alive and well. Riots all over the US and injustice is still the same.  The movie had a lot of things going on at the same time,  Sometimes it was hard to keep up with what was going on. I didn't like the dark scenes.  The music sound track was good.
