Now I have to say that I wasn't 100% sure of the story behind Bombshell that stars Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie and an unrecognisable John Lithgow, what I did vaguely know is that the movie is based on the rather powerful and controversial media empire Fox News and of the story of the woman that brought down the man that created the well-known empire.

It's certainly a refreshing change from all the action and adventure films that I've been seeing lately and ys it is a slowish paced film, but Bombshell kept me interested in the storyline, as they fight to take on the power of Fox News and Roger Ailes (John Lithgow), this is a film that is pretty powerful to watch and is intriguing and interesting as Gretchen Carlson (Nicole Kidman) takes on the media mogul in a fight for justice.

Although reading a series is usually best-done back-to-back, there are exceptions and this is one of them. Although I find myself enjoying this series for the action and adventure side of it, the romance side came across as being incredibly similar to the first book - best friends, one supposedly straight, one kiss and they're sorted.

What lifted this book from a 3-star to a 4-star was the detail involved with Craig and his capture. This made for a very good adventure story although it still could have gone further for me into the whys and wherefores.

Once again, this is a book with multiple main characters, rather than just one pair, and others are mingling. New characters are introduced with a view to the next book in the series. As with the first book, I would recommend a round of editing and proofreading as there are still too many errors in there to dismiss.

On the whole, enjoyable but I would suggest you read different books in between.
