I am so bored with hearing about how much the men in Anita's life work out. I get it, they're shifters and buff. I don't need chapter upon chapter about their work outs. I'd give this more stars if half the book hadn't been fluff about working out. Not even sure why I keep reading this series anymore.

this book carries straight on from part one, part one end with chapter 9 this book starts with chapter 10. same fantastic characters from the first part. this story has lots of twists and turn, with lots more hot steamy scenes between the characters. the story continues in this book, the characters develop and more of there secrets come out.this story again is fast paced and will keep you reading long into the night. cant wait to get started on part three.

"I got a friend who wrote a book, it’s called ‘One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding,’ it’s about this straight-A college kid, fraternity guy, and a 14-year-old negro prostitute, and it’s got two dialogues in the same book. One chapter is what he’s doing and what he does, and the next chapter is her view of him. It actually comes out and states something that’s actually true… This guy who wrote it, you can’t label him. He’s unlabelable."

"I have long been obsessed with this book, and specifically with The Little Fox. Even if I don’t revisit the entire existential text (masked as a children’s book), the chapter of The Little Fox unearths a truth in me that is always worth the check-in."

Oh, this book! If you love crime, facts, gruesome stuff, this is the book for you!
Not at all what I imagined it would be. I figured it would be facts about the hospital, possible interviews with staff etc. however, due to very limited information being freely given on the hospital itself, the book turned out the most fantastically real read.
Enter the patients. To fill the pages there is chapter after chapter of patients and their crimes. Facts that keep the pages turning until your eyes cant stay open any longer. Cannot recommend this book highly enough. Absolutely fantastic, start to finish!
  
Second book in "The Forgotten Legion" trilogy, in which Ben Kane follows the same format as the first in following his protaganists chapter about (with a few exceptions), and ending each chapter on a cliff-hanger.

Mostly fairly formulaic stuff, and this book has less of the, ahhh .... shall we say ... purple sections of prose than the first, as Fabiola is now a Roman citizen rather than the prostitute, some of whose actions are explicitely described in the previous volume.

John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)
2019 | Action, Crime, Thriller
John Wick Chapter 3 picks up immediately after Chapter 2, which I liked, so it got going right away. The fighting is so well choreographed, and my favorite section of fighting was with the book in the New York Public Library. You apparently can kill someone with a very weighty book.
This chapter provided much more information on the Continental/High Table mythos, which I thought was cool. Asia Kate Dillon was stone cold as the Adjudicator, and I can't wait to see more of Dillon in Chapter 4.
I could have done without Halle Berry being in the film. She really didn't add anything, and both my father and I were annoyed that it cut away from Keanu fighting to show her, when frankly, the only person I really want to see kicking ass is Keanu.

The author starts this book with Chapter 36 and works his way down to Chapter 1. It was easy to get lost in the story...not in the good way. It is tough to follow the story unless you read the book in larger chunks. I tend to read a few minutes at a time and was lost quickly. I restarted the book and read a few chapters at a time and really enjoyed it. The best part was I DIDN'T FIGURE OUT THE ENDING!!! Yes, that was intentionally written in all caps because that rarely happens.

Discovering, unique style, chapter titles (0 more)
The unique style in which this book was written was great. I loved discovering along with Amy & Roger all the places they traveled. Meeting friends along the way. I was glad for the personal growth and discoveries they made in their travels too. The song lyrics as titles was also great I loved when they finally made sense in each chapter.
