The Adventures of Reztap by Artemis Withers - Review
The Adventures of Reztap is the tale of Tar Reztap and his best friend Gorth. The pair manage to find their way into, and then out of, many a mess. Saying anymore would ruin the story.
Now, I'm going to be completely honest... This book was not for me. The plot was... scattered and hard for me to follow half the time. There were four characters (Tar, Gorth, Chuck, and Kalleen) I could pick out of the host of others and that was pretty much it.
Tar was incredibly immature and hard for me to relate to. He's the unwilling, unwitting hero of the piece, I'll say that much for him. Gorth, the narrator and our guide through the book, seemed oddly stoic for someone who had to deal with Tar on a regular basis. I know I'd be tearing my hair out and slapping him half the time. Chuck... was interesting. Kalleen... well, she made me chuckle a few times, especially when she shot down Tar right out of the gate.
My overall opinion of this book is that it's not for everyone. If you enjoyed and were able to follow exactly what went on in such books as The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and The Restaurant at the end of the Universe, odds are you'll enjoy Reztap. Me, I'll go back to my vampire novels.
Warehouse 13 - First Five Episodes Reviewed
Again, like with my Alphas review, I'm going to do a bit of a brief review of the first five episodes of Warehouse 13 and then a review of the most recent episode.
So far, I'm really enjoying this season. I find the thing with Jinks, Claudia, and the Metronome really interesting. The Metronome's downside is quite the dilemma for our intrepid pair and it makes me wonder who died for Marcus Diamond last season. Unless of course I missed that bit somehow... Speaking of downsides, Artie and the Astrolabe have quite the downside. Of course, the monk guy isn't making life easier for Artie. Honestly, that bit where Artie can't tell anyone about what he did on top of stealing Artifacts... that's just ridiculous! Can't wait to see what's in store for the rest of the season!
Warehouse 13 - Fractures - Review
So... I wasn't really a fan of how Warehouse 13 did Alice in Wonderland last time (despite Alice as Myka being hot ). However, I did quite enjoy how the story Alice in Wonderland story held clues to other Artifacts. I'm not a fan of Alice's look. It's like: Hey, this girl's bat-shit crazy; let's make her look like a walking skeleton with hair. The super bruised-looking eyes were NOT necessary.
Artie and Vanessa were just so cute together! I really love it when Artie gets all flustered and lies to everyone but Myka. I'm sad Artie never did give Vanessa that bell and that he's decided to be a miserable old coot. Okay, actually, I'm angry about that. Here's why: Guys don't just get to decide when things are to dangerous for their girlfriends/relationship. That's .
Claudia finally knows about Jink's pain-transference! I just hope they don't end up having to kill him again. That would suck and probably damage Claudia beyond repair... probably.
Overall opinion: Middling. Not the best episode, but pretty awesome anyway.
Okay so... that's the end of today's blog post. Hope I didn't kill anyone with the over-abundance of Emoticons during that last review. They seemed appropriate.
Anyway... that's it from me.
Love ya, Jessie.
