I bought it in April. Started shorting out in late August.  Just 4 months? Really? So, I've just ordered an
RND-AMC-6FT-W. Will it be any better? I'll find out. I hate buying a new lightning cable 3 times a year. By the way, I'm EZ on the cables. I pull grasping the tip each & every time.

This book is not at all like the others in the series.  It's more of a character study.  I had to make myself plod through it because there was very little action in it.  Everyone has a secret that is eating them up inside.  it was a downer, unlike the other books that showed some heroics in the midst of despair.  I'd give it a C - and may not buy another book in this series if one is written.

I have read all of the books in this series, and this is probably my least favorite.  It did seem to have as much plot as the other stories, but relied mainly on rehashing the sex scenes over and over and over.  Too bad, because these started out as funny, interesting stories.  I say read it, only because each story has a slight lead-in to the next.

My wife and I are fans of all the previous Resident Evil films, even though they are admittedly bad. This maybe is part of the charm. They are just fun and silly and laughable. Nothing to be taken too seriously. This last installment wasn't even fun. It was pretty much just the bad, with none of the silly charm that the others manage to harness. I recommend saving your money, and more importantly your time.

I really got nothing out of this book. There are so many others which are so much better done. I suggest you look elsewhere if looking to improve your life.

This 4th book in the series was disappointing for me.  30 chapters and this one cost more than the others.  I doubt I'll finish the rest of the series.

This book was not as good as the rest of the series. There was constant discussion of science theory, gate theory, mystical power, and little character development.  There was a minmimal amount of plot.  The storyline was not advanced. i should have skipped this one.

This antennae was no better than the 5 other antennas I tried.  It got in every channel I could get in with my others, but not any more.  I tried using it in multiple directions and locations, but nothing more that wowed me.  My pwered one actually held the signal better than this.  The channels often went out on this.  The nice thing is that it isn't powered, so I did not need an extra place to plug it in, but again performed no better than the others I have tried The thinness of the item was nice as it was easily concealed.  I would not but it again though.

By now, anyone who is not familiar with this series franchise, should not even be reading any of these reviews.  We all know the basic story and outline, what will happen, what does happen and how it cannot be avoided.  Number 4 in the series is no exception.
Number 1 was the best of them all; number 2 at least had Ali Lautner in it, although had a weak story; number 3 had the roller coaster and number 5 pulled all together. Number 4 (The Final Destination) is meaningless and bad. Why?  First off, the "U.S' in this movie is actually Florida (thus so fitting for racing) as opposed to Vancover-ized version of the U.S.as in the other 4 movies. You have absolutely no connection with any of the characters, either because they just are all awful at their craft, or just because you have no empathy for them (the 4 leads are just stiff in their roles).The story is too convoluted in that it does not follow the structure of how premonitions and death work as opposed to the other 4 installments. It is the one movie that is left out there on its own, with no point of reference to the original movie in any way shape or form (the other 3 touch on Flight 180, or have Tony Todd in them to remind us).
I actually sat through this movie checking the remaining time left on my blu-ray player as to how much more of this I had to endure.
DO NOT use this as a starting off point for the franchise as it will disappoint. Buy the first one and then other 3 as they all connect. This is a "stand alone" movie whihc adds nothing to the franchise.

I was up at 8 am with my kindle in hand to read the latest installment, I was so sad that it didn't live up to the others. It wasn't worth the price because it read more like a filler than an actual stand alone novel. It just fell short of the others and I'm sorry to say the next one will not be pre-ordered.

I've read all the McBride series and this one just didn't have the story or intrigue of the others.  The car dealer shootout took way too long and the subsequent alleyway scene with the kids was a waste.  They are reluctant hit men, got it, but I enjoyed the sniper team of the other books instead of apologizing and lamenting the carnage they brought onto the enemy.  If this is the path forward for McBride I'll pass on the next edition.  Advice to readers, Go ahead and speed read this one, there are no details to miss.

I love and own most of the books written by Mercedes Lackey, but this one felt more cheesy than the others in this particular series.  There was no life to the story.  It seemed rather as if the author felt it necessary to write on these characters and just wanted to get past it as quickly as possible.

Not great. I don't love it. At least not compared to other ones.

This just wasn't up to par with the other books in the series.  I expected more for Van's book.  I wasn't impressed with the insta-love and insta-family stuff.  Some guy tells my little sis they wish they were my daddy too within less than a week of meeting them, I am running for the hills.

Yes, I was a big fan of Poppy's, even got most of my friends to at least read one of her books. This book though did not grip me like the others. Even her spin on the Crow series didn't annoy me as much as this book did. This book had none of the qualities that I enjoyed in her past novels and shorts. It was a big let down to see such a great writer basically lose her touch.
  Now don't get me wrong there was a lot of things I commend her on her take on the Catholic Church's view of the homosexual community. And showing the fine division between the stereotypical over sexed gay and the hopeless romantic gay.
 This book just was not what I set my self up for. The characters were to plain, the set ups were just bland and very predictable. And I was still hoping for a morbid twist an unhappy ending or some kinda maiming. I gave it a mediocre rating for a her mediocre attempt at conformity. I recommend this novel to those questioning his or her own sexuality or are building up the nerve to come out of the closet. But, if your a die hard Poppy Z. Brite fan spare yourself the pain and reread one of her other novels.

This is ok. I've read probably a dozen books related to photography and this one is just weak in comparison to the others. You certainly may learn many helpful things but 98% of the content here was handled better on other books. I'd say skip this one. I'm a big fan of Valenzuela's "Picture Perfect" books. Combine those with a good technical introduction to photography systems and workflows and you should be on your way. I only purchased this because the PPA considers it essential reading. While it wasn't a total waste of time I feel there are much better options. For reference I am a experienced amateur photographer plan to turn turning pro this year.

Before I write anything else, please know that I am a great fan of Amanda Peabody books!  The Guardian of the Horizon is my least favorite of the Amanda Peabody books.  It has little mystery and characters that are just not as interesting as they usually are.  Dare I say that they are "bland"?  There are no feuds with "Budge" or "Maspero"!  No spice!  Having written all this, keep in mind it is still an Amanda Peabody book. This is just the least interesting of the series. It is still the intrepid Amanda Peabody and her family!  It's all relative.  It is just that all the other books in the series are much better!
