Great cliffhanger
Emotional investment

Can be slow paced for younger readers
Much better than I remember it being
I remember that this was the most difficult Harry Potter book for me to get through the first time. I thought it was long and poorly paced. However, I was much younger and lengthwise it was a jump from the first three.
Having read it a few more times since then, I have come to better appreciate Goblet of Fire. It's still not my favorite of the series, but the story is well written, and an older me prefers that Rowling took her time developing the plot for this one.

Kelley Armstrong is a cruel, evil woman.
This Fallen Prey takes you on a rollercoaster as Casey tells you all about the day the Council drops a dangerous serial killer into Rockton without any advance warning.
What you get from that point on is a crazy edge of the seat ride as you try and figure out whether he's really what the council have claimed, or if there's something deeper and more complex going on. With betrayals and deaths and twists that just keep you turning the pages, the third book of the Casey Duncan series does not disappoint.
It does leave us with a minor cliffhanger.. and I absolutely cannot wait for the next book!

amazing
holy hell yall... OMG this was amazing.. the blurb came and got me to begin with but then im like.. hmm.. this sounds dark and interesting and oh man.. it was semi dark. my only complaint is the author could have gone a tad bit darker but honestly the way she writes it is so amazing i didn't even care lol. it was sexy.. i freakin loved the characters.. and i am really really hoping that there might be more.. the ending left it off as there could be another one coming.. its not a cliffhanger exactly but it is a bit of a "huh.. what will happen" lol. it was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing! and i loved loved loved it

WOW, I didn't see that coming!? Yet another incredible book from Aleatha and completely different from anything she has done before! I truly had no idea where this story was going and just when I think I did, she twists the story yet again... Sara wakes up remembering nothing, in a world she has no recollection of and a husband who is determined to bring her back into "The Light". So many crazy twists and turns will keep you on the edge of your seat, trying to figure out where the story heads next... and after that killer cliffhanger ending, I'm sure we're all DYING to get our hands on the next book!? HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended read!!

Marvel keeps getting better and better can they top them with this movie in my opinion yes they did. Will Thanos complete his master plan???? The makeup for Thanos was a little off putting at first. Chris helmswoth, Chris Evans (with a beard), and Chris Pratt just those three alone how could you go wrong. The cliffhanger left us hanging in a good way but at the same time you go wtf. Preteen or teen Groot whatever you want to go by was a little off putting to me, but as a parent of teens it was like looking in a mirror. Definitely another homerun for marvel. Can't wait until the sequel

<b><i>I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.</i></b>
The second book in The Vault of Dreamers starts from the cliffhanger of sorts OBrien left off with, though I personally think The Vault of Dreamers should've been left alone as a stand-alone. This sequel might be a little disorienting at first, as Rosa is in another body and it takes awhile to figure out what was going on.

A dark reverse harem......
Ava is gifted with a cheeky sarcastic streak.....I like her. I also feel for her, she doesn't know her parents and was abandoned to the system at three years old. That's hard on anyone......let alone a girl that can speak to spirits.
Although she's kept under the radar most of the time she's managed to attract the attention of four very hot males (for various reasons).
With this in mind I'd definitely class this as an adult read. It kept me interested from start to finish and frustrated me with a cliffhanger! Plus side that means there's more to come so I'll let Jayce Carter off haha!

Great Scott!
Mid part of the Back to the Future trilogy, in which Marty McFly experiences and travels to three distinct era's: the far-flung future of 2015(!)(I'm writing this in December 2020 - I want my hoverboard, dammit!), an alternate dystopian (from his and Boc Browns point of view) 1985 and finally back to 1955 as the point of divergence to (re)witness the events of the first movie.
With a cliffhanger ending, this film should really be considered the first part of a longer movie: indeed, I believe that was the original intention before the studios balked at the sheer running length of merging the events of Part II and the (Western) Part III into one!

Was always going to be impossible being the next film up after endgame and though this one had one or two minor issues it's still another excellent entry into the MCU.
Some good action scenes,excellent performances by Tom Holland and Jon Favreau made this better than homecoming,though mysterio wasnt up to much as the bad guy with all his tech illusions.
It's a shame that the cliffhanger ending in the first post credits scene wont be fully explored as spiderman is no longer in the MCU.Hopefully Sony will keep up the quality in future movies and it will be interesting to see if spiderman goes up against venom or morbius.
