Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated The Forgotten Room in Books
Jul 12, 2018
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
Have you ever read a book that captured everything so perfectly? Well, this is that book for me. The Forgotten Room is a beautiful book that tells the story of a love that knows no bounds.
I was fascinated by the plot of this book and it was amazing to see the twists and turns in this book. The characters were intriguing and I didn't want the book to end. I took my time with this book. I usually devour these kind of books but I had to slow my pace to truly appreciate the minute details that we woven into this book.
Even though I own an ARC of this book, I will have to buy it. This was just one of those books that needs a spot on my bookshelf.

How it ends? It doesn’t!
Contains spoilers, click to show
Most disaster films nowadays are made with the notion of concentrating on the story arc of the characters and don’t feel the need to explain the reasoning behind the disaster.
This film is no exception!
For a road movie it is fantastic. Lots of suspense and thrills built on trust issues and a road trip for a father and son-in-law who are trying to get to their daughter/partner, starting as two people who don’t see eye to eye and gradually becoming friends.
However, I was left wanting more from the final scenes and disappointed with the last frame.
If you’re stuck for something to watch on Netflix then give it a go but remember that nothing will be explained (and I mean nothing!!)

Joelene Marie (28 KP) rated Separate Lives in Books
Oct 1, 2018
I absolutely loved Separate Lives! I was hooked from page one by the writing style. The characters were well developed and relatable in a lot of ways, tho I wasn't fond of Pippa and her intentions toward Alex. I could also identify with Susie quite a bit tho I wish she'd had more backbone in dealing with Alex at the end of their relationship. The entire time I was reading this book I was so engrossed that it almost felt like the characters were friends of mine. The ending answered a few questions but it left me wanting to know how things wound up with Susie and Will. Overall I truly enjoyed my time with these great characters and will be looking forward to more from this author. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!

Really good plot
World building and exploration of said world
Well I expected something different but I'll take this
I loved this book. I got my hands on an arc copy and my god am I happy. From the blurb I expected some sort of girl power book which put me off a bit but there was no where near as mich as that as I thought. The plot didn't rely at all on a drive of proving girl power as the characters actually stood on their own and had their own motives and drives. I loved their journey through the lands and meeting the sea witches,I only wish there was more or a sequel but there's been no whispers of it and that severely upsets me.

<b>4 Star Rating</b> ____
So many of my Goodreads friends were reading this book and very much enjoying it so I thought I would give it a go too.
I was very pleasantly surprised after I devoured this grim story, I liked it A LOT!
What starts out as a group therapy session turns into something ever so dark and sinister and it was wonderfully executed. I felt for every character within the story and I really didn't want it to end. This leads me on to the only negative that I found which was that it was so short...I was really getting into it when it ended, however, I am very hopeful that there will be a sequel.

Natari (73 KP) rated Curse the Dawn (Cassandra Palmer, #4) in Books
Jul 19, 2019
Curse the Dawn balances serious action with a very funny Freaky Friday style hijinks. However, such adventures are not just for kicks, and actually help to further the plot of other major characters.
The stakes are higher in book 4, with a God on Cassie's tail. At one point, quite literally. But when I look back over the books, I can't get over my love of book 3 enough and book 4 seems lacking in comparison.
Not that it is a bad book. Quite the opposite. Curse the Dawn is a necessary book in the series. It takes the series to a higher level. It's the start of a new arc for Cassie. We've had the trilogy of her finding herself, and now this starts her journey to find her power and place in the world. I can't wait for more.
