A Heartracing Experience from Start to Finish
This movie is an experience that you will not soon forget. The dedication of Andrew is unlike any other. While many people look at this movie as abuse from a horrible teacher who pushes his students too far which they are certainly not wrong about that. However, this is actually about a young man's dedication to become GREAT. While he goes to true extremes to make that happen. He has a goal and he will go to all extremes to make it happen. He is able to become one of the GREATS only because of what he is able to endure. All great people fight a battle that no one else can see sometimes the battle is worth it sometimes it is not. That is something that every person has to answer for their own battles. Andrew thought his battle was worth it.
  
Taking chance by Traci Wooden-Carlisle was a great example of its title; It is a book about taking chances. It is the second book in the Chances Series, but it can be read as a standalone. This is my first time reading a book by Traci Wooden-Carlisle and I loved her writing style, it is conversational and built with good detail.
 Andrew and Pietra (Which is a cool name, but I had to look up how to say it!) is a classic unrequired love/friends to lovers’ type storyline that was engaging, heartfelt, and had some deep thought stirring moments. I enjoyed their banter back and forth, Andrews's culture was fascinating, and I truly loved Pietra’s patience with Andrew through everything. It was a good culturally diverse book that kept me interested and I did not put it down until I finished!

This was an intellectual horror. Andrew Pyper did a good job working Paradise Lost by Milton into this novel. It almost makes me want to read the full text of the poem - but not quite.

If you are looking for a gory horror story, look elsewhere. While this does have a few icky moments, most of it is psychological.

Even after finishing it, I'm still wondering...

Do you believe?

"You look at our reliance on communications today, on cyber and all this stuff, and then you read Andrew Gordon’s book on The Rules of the Game about what went wrong for the Royal Navy between Nelson’s navy at Trafalgar and Admiral Jellicoe’s navy one hundred years later at Jutland, and you get a real reminder of how you can take fundamental errors that just screw you up royally."

A Romance Reader's Reviews

This starts with Cameron eating lunch with her two best friends and trying to do her Econ coursework. They start chatting about a party where Cameron's crush, Andrew, will be at the weekend and she plans to tell him she likes him. But things don't go great when they get interrupted and Cameron is really horrible to them, causing Andrew to call her a b*tch. She decides to try and publicly apologise to the girl who interrupted them and do it in front of Andrew but the girl points out something obvious and things get worse with Andrew. She then decides to make a list of people she needs to apologise to and tries to figure out how.

I actually got really into this staying up until midnight last night to get to the 80% mark. I was drawn in by Cameron and the journey she went on from just being brutally honest and a bit of a b*tch to someone who enjoyed being friends and spending time with the less popular crowd. It was a great read and Cameron's internal thinking was interesting.

Cameron and Brendan were super cute. They had quite a lot in common and I found myself rooting for them from early on. I'll admit I had a little cry at a few bits. Some of the tears were for Cameron in regards to her dad, and some were for her and Brendan when he took something the wrong way and I felt as wounded as Cameron did.

I've read this is based on The Taming of the Shrew but I'm not that big a fan of Shakespeare so I can't compare as I've never read the book/seen the play but Cameron's views on it helped me understand it a lot more.

I'd enjoy reading more books from this writing duo.

Fresh take on dice game that retains excitement and addictive nature. Familiar brand and simple rules make it very accessible. Fast gameplay packs in a lot of meaningful decisions. Dice manipulation and speculation mitigate luck. SO MANY DICE. (0 more)

No, this film is not a masterpiece in film-making. But, it's one of my favorite movies.
First, the first scenes of this film where Larry (Andrew McCarthy) brushes off the mugger in Central Park, since makes me smile.
The story-line is very 1980s, fraud/embezzlement in a corporate atmosphere. The physical comedy by Terry Kiser was exactly what was needed. Who thought toting a dead body around could be so amusing?

"To prepare our auditions for Looking, we were advised by casting to watch Andrew Haigh’s 2011 film, in order to get an idea of the tone for the show. Truly one of the most beautiful love stories I’ve seen. It felt like the filmmaker was trying to capture true intimacy and not some bloated, storybook version of it. Tom Cullen and Chris New do truly compelling work. I love this film so much."
