Not at all what I expected

My 6-year old daughter is constantly singing these cute songs that are supposedly from the "Frozen" soundtrack and bugging me incessantly about buying her the DVD. So I finally give in and buy it for her and even decide to watch it together with her to see what all the fuss is about. Wow, what a major disappointment. Not only did I not hear any of the songs, she didn't enjoy it at all and ended up crying and running out of the room. I just can't understand these young kids and their fickle behavior when it comes to keeping them entertained.

This was not what I was expecting at all.

Twenty-Eight and a half wishes is funny and a bit quirky and a true mystery book.

And I love the tiny bit of paranormal to it as well.
The thing is though I hardly liked any of the characters.
At All.

They best thing I liked at all about this was good ole tootin Muffy.

The whole town was twofaced and hateful most of the time.
Even her sister, who had said over and over she needed to start being her own person, didn't like it when she did. She freaked out.

And while I sorta liked Joe, He annoyed the crap out of me. And was sorta creepy at times. lol

Another  thing was I didn't  know that it was a part of a series with a spinoff too.
**facepalm**

I hate when that happens. lol.

I write weird reviews.

Not at all what I expected. It looks different than the image. It's much to wide to put on my phone.

Not at all what I expected. There were lyrics when I sampled it, but it's only instrumental, and for the same track (2 tracks). Lesson learned when I see this album cover, which I saw for multiple albums for which I was searching.

I was disappointed when I recieved A Touch Of Dead. I preordered this book and was counting down the days until it was released. It appears to be something thrown together rather than a well planned out bridge between stories. Not at all what I thought and very unlike our Sookie we have come to know and love.

Not at all what I expected. The material is very thin and is not very flattering on my body. I would rather wear it just laying around the house than out in public.

I checked out this book from the library and am glad that I did before buying.  It was definitely not what I was expecting.  The author takes quite a bit of liberty with the definition of pot pie.  If anything, I felt that most of the recipes constituted a gratin more than a pot pie.  I was looking for more stew-type fillings under a crust, and don't really consider chicken and dumplings to be a pot pie.  I have not tried any of the recipes so I cannot attest to the quality of those.  Frankly, I have no interest in trying any of the recipes out as they were not what I was looking for.  If you are looking for contemporary takes on pot pies, this book is probably what you are looking for.

When I decided to read this book, I had expected a somewhat dark fairy tale. In a sense it is but maybe not in the way you would hope. The story centers on a teenage girl who disappears. 20 years later, she shows up on Christmas Day. Barely looking a day older than when she disappeared.

The story the girl spins is hard for anyone to believe. Most of the book is centered around her now much older family, her sessions of counseling that they have placed her in, and bits & pieces of the place she has been for the past 20 years. According to her, only 6 months have past. Is she telling the truth? Or is it all a lie or some sort of psychological trauma she is covering?

While the characters were interesting, the idea of the story even more interesting, the story sort of fell flat for me. I became more interested towards the end, hoping for something that would have made it all worth it. Unfortunately, it did not. All the loose ends were tied up but nothing that made me say wow. In a way you kind of expected it. I guess it depends on what you are expecting when you read this. Don't expect fairy lands or dancing unicorns. No rainbows or pixie dust. Not even of the gothic kind. This is really more of a story of broken hearts & lost loves with a little fantasy thrown in.

This book is not at all what I thought it was going to be.
It starts off well and you think you will be on the edge of your
chair waiting to see what is lurking just out of sight, then all
of a sudden there are "animals" and "people" down there.  The silliest
thing is hearing him try to tie all this to the aboriginal people of
Australia or New Zealand.
Someone else mentioned "Journey to the Center of the Earth".
Read it instead. It is a much better book!

This novel was not what I was expecting.  It actually did not live up to my expectation. I was disappointed. It's actually quite boring.

This book wasn't my cup of tea.  It is supposed to be funny and wasn't even kind of cute.  I was surprised.  It's a great concept but I was expecting a bit more.
