Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Crazy Rich Asians (2018) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
Those of you that have read my reviews, will know of my love of Sci-Fi and horror movies, but every once in a while something comes along that brings a big grin to my face as soon as the movie starts and Crazy Rich Asians is one of those film, very much like La La Land did when I saw it in the cinema.
The movie has some brilliant characters that bring the film alive, such as the very memorable and funny Peik Lin Goh (Awkwafina) who as some brilliant lines that some of the laughs to the film.

Erika (17788 KP) rated Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup in Books
Feb 14, 2021
This excellent non-fiction book is about Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos. This company was touting that it could run 100s of tests on just a drop of blood. If you know ANYTHING about laboratory tests, or watched CSI and was exposed to GC/MS, you would know it is completely impossible to do tests off of a finger puncture.
Holmes is described as brilliant, and was the darling of Silicon Valley. Yes, she was brilliant, a brilliant dirtbag. Everyone was fooled by her initially (some still are), to include the author of this book, John Carreyrou, who initially wrote a glowing article about her.
However, it was all fake, as proven by various whistleblowers. This was such a good read, and pairs really well with the HBO documentary movie, The Inventor. I highly recommend this book if you like books written by journalists, the downfall of dirtbags, and stories about fraud.
