Intricate gripping Drama
I'm not a big fan of dramas but when you find a good one it just has a great way of engrossing you into the story. This is one of those films, well directed, great cast with an interesting story of greed, betrayal and desperation. A very entertaining film.

Wonderful read
Not a book for most kids under the age of 12(depends on maturity levels of course). Its a great story about male bonding, but in the worst possible situation they wanted to have it. Overall it is a story of trust, betrayal, and survival among a backdrop of potential failure.

I received a copy of The Speed of Falling Objects from Inkyard Press through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I'll be totally honest. I did not expect this book to move me to tears but here we are.

Danny is such a good character. I understood her feelings of betrayal.

I really enjoyed this story, some parts were a bit over the top and it was def a lovey dovey story but I enjoyed it. I like a good sweet romantic read..plus this had added betrayal, confusion, and loyalty in it. The plots and twists were very good and the characters drew me in.

Annie Kincaid gets caught up in a web of murder and betrayal when she identifies a painting at a San Francisco museum as a forgery. Plenty of laughs to this cozy caper, and the characters were wonderful.

Absolutely riveting!
This is my absolute favourite book of all time!! It's such an epic story of betrayal and revenge - you become completely and utterly lost in the story - you care about the characters, their futures.. Every time I read it I pick up on something new, it's just an absolute classic that everyone should read!

Poor Laurence and Temeraire are in the thick of it again. this amazing story that deals with loyalty and betrayal will make you think and examine everything you thought you knew. I love how turn of the century England is portrayed. And we get to see more angry Laurence. Africa will hold many surprises and hopefully a cure.
