A raw, relatable journey...
I read the book in a single sitting, this book contains poetry and prose of the highest calibre.

Lauren Cresswell writes a raw, emotional journey, one that no matter what your experiences of love, lust or loss, you will definitely relate to.

Expect to feel a strong range of emotions, ones that will bring up many memories of the best of times, and maybe the worst of times, the times that make us who we are.

At points this book literally brought me to tears. The book gives us a no-holes-barred, at some point almost psychedelic view into the author's experiences, experiences we all know too well, with a form that perfectly highlights the highs and lows of love.

Overall, a must read for anybody.

Movie Rating
This movie carries a metric ton of nostalgia for me. I was actually it's exact target audience (nine year old nerd) when it was released, and loved it accordingly.

I recently rewatched this with my family. It still carries waves of emotions stemming from my childhood feelings about it, but a lot of things in the movie simply don't hold up to father time. I'm not sure that they were ever intended to though, to be fair.

Even at the time if felt like the movie was manufactured as a long play advertisement for the about to be released Super Mario Brothers 3 on the Super Nintendo.

With all that being said, and the inevitable baggage that comes with it, I still enjoyed it. So did my young children. I call that a win on any day/

Ice Hockey & Romance
Kindle recommended Whiskey’s work after I had devoured my way through Helena Hunting’s books on the same theme... Ice Hockey and Romance, and I was not disappointed.

Bailey and Gage have been friends since they were children, and after a previous accident, Bailey stepped in to support Gage by becoming a live-in nanny for his adorable daughter Scarlett.
Great in theory, but the undeniable attraction between Bailey and Gage could not go ignored. But will it be enough for a happy ending?

I really enjoyed reading the first in the Seattle Sharks series, getting to know the sharks and learning the heart warming story of the blossoming passion and love between Bailey and Gage.

The story was wonderfully well written, and the energy and emotions were palpable. I look forward to reading the others in the series.
