I recently switched away from Apple and got my Pixel 2 and I'm in love. The camera is amazing and has so many more features with a much clearer panarama option. All of my music is still through Apple music as I didn't want to take the time to switch everything over, so that app will glitch sometimes but that is the only real problem I have had since switching.

Not for the faint hearted but it is incredible how much suspense can be wrapped up in these few pages. It’s drawn to really captivate you and make you care about every person in one way or another. The battles they ensue and the cleverness in the plot makes this such an amazing read that I hope it is a long standing series as it deserves it!
I wouldn’t start this series until a lot more are realised as I’m addicted and they are not released quick enough!

WOW. I mean, wow. Amazing debut by this author and I'm SO glad to have caught this one. A story that grabs you on page one, I was literally sneaking in pages every moment I had and finished it in less than a day. I can honestly say I reached a point where everything was clear and the entire story comes together where I literally had to put the book down and rethink everything I thought I knew. Highly, highly recommended, I'll surely be back to catch more from this author!!

Wow! One of the best books I've ever had the pleasure of reading! Totally original plot, superbly written, with amazing world building and well developed characters. It sucked me in from page one and never let go, I flew thru the story and was left wanting when the end came (far too quickly, mind you, as this is one I never wanted to end) and what an ending it was! I absolutely can't wait for the sequel! Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to read and review this title!!

Epic ExtraOrdinary Story
I was so in love with the writing, world building, character development. I thought the plot was super creative and very refreshing to read. I love superheroes and the people who write about them or things related to them seem to have to most amazing skills to bring that world to light and this book was no exception I would highly recommend it for anyone who loves those kind of stories. Also, revenge is a side plot and well I always kind of love revenge stories.
  
An amazing insight into the long history of the 'first Americans'. A great balance between detailed recounts of events, yet a broad enough stroke through the history to explain the major parts of the history for the last 20,000 years.

A wonderful book, concise yet still detailed, full of emotion and accuracy in the telling of the the tragic events, but not being too romantic over the good times either.

A must read for anyone interested in developing their knowledge of this remarkable group of people, true survivors and determined to control their own destiny.

Great research
Comedy characters
Jimmie's laugh
If all you're looking for is sports, look elsewhere. The hosts of Crime in Sports are comedians, who take a look at the life of a sportsperson and the noodnickery they perpetrated. They do cover the sports career, but only briefly and as a reference.
If you like true crime, hearing how famous people mess up, riches to rags stories, and amazing things you never knew, definitely listen to this podcast and laugh along. You do not need to like sports.
  
Flawless!
Reminded me a lot of the music from Moulin Rouge which I also loved. I love the combination of classic melodies with a modern twist. A day after I watched the film and I'm still humming all the songs and downloaded a few of them.

This is Me is amazing and I also love Never Enough. Should've won the Oscar.

The songs fit into the story so well as well. It never felt like they were out of place or awkward. They married the story flawlessly.

Utterly absorbing
Amazingly, Disturbingly, Darkly Delightful
A fabulously dark audio play, with brilliant actors and sound effects. Absorbing you in a disturbing series of 'recovered memories', which is married to a great storyline, all of which intertwine into an amazing tale of insane corporate malice, murder, satanism, anthropophagy, torture, sadism, and greed.
Dark, twisted, and in some places, truly disturbing, it's probably best not to listen to this right before bed. It is, however, pretty much a must listen for those who enjoy the darkest of dark fantasies.

fantastic short read
This is the first book in this set but the sixth book in this series. This is a mafia story. This is a quick, hot and steamy, easy to read book which you will read in one sitting. This book has a cliffhanger ending so be warned, you will need part two as soon as you've finished this book. Amazing well written characters. I can't wait to read part two in this set.



Highly recommended short read
