Wren and Foster. Foster and Wren. Anyway you look at it, they are meant to be together! The sparks flew between them instantly and I held on for dear life, watching them together. I loved the way Foster had to work to show Wren she was more than just his best friend's kid sister. When the realization finally hit.....well, let's just say it was a hot slice of pizza for this reader!
Do I recommend this book? Abso-friggin-lutely. Do I want to keep it forever? Abso-friggin-lutely. Do I recommend eating it with pizza? No. If you do, you may choke from laughing often! With a beautiful heroine and a hot, sexy Hero that will melt your socks off, this is a 5 star worthy start to a fantastic new series from who I dubbed the Queen of RomCon. Well done, Hunter. Well done. Bring on the next!

Sep 30, 2019 (Updated Sep 30, 2019)
The show ran for 7 seasons beginning July 11, 2013 to July 26, 2019 and is Based on Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison; by Piper Kerman
The show primarily focuses on Piper Chapman, a public relations executive with a career and a fiance until her past suddenly catches up to her. she is sentenced to spend time in a minimum-security women's prison for her association with a drug runner 10 years earlier.
Forced to change office grey for prison orange, Chapman edges her way through the corrections system in an attempt to adjust to life behind bars whilst making friends & enemies with the many eccentric, unusual and unexpected people she meets.
I didn't start watching until roughly season 4, but was quickly tagged as a fan and was always eager to see what happened next ( 9pm, 3am whats the difference right.....)
Although its was a great show some plot details seemed blurred or rushed at times causing me to ask myself, wait what? But strong physical acting and vocal timing truly helped dig in those finger Nails & shivs and not let go.

Nov 22, 2018 (Updated Nov 22, 2018)
Although the fight sequences and intense action are the star attraction in The Raid, Gareth Evans uses his actors and his camera work to make the audience feel an unfaltering sense of tension when necessary to balance the sheer, white-knuckle excitement of other scenes. I have watched this movie a ton and I have seen the subtitled version, the dubbed version and the original Indonesian version without subtitles. Even in the latter, when none of the characters are speaking any English, you can still easily follow what is going on, due to the expressive performances given by the cast.
Overall, if you are an action fan, you can't do much better than the Raid. It is an intense story told so well by a bunch of extremely talented people.
