In a nutshell, you have a question about the colour if something (from flags to bands, there are topics for everyone) and your team answer by putting down the apropreare colour card(s).
Not only was it fun, I actually learned a fair few things while playing. Did you know the Golden Gate Bridge arrived painted in a burnt red primer, but the architect decided it looked good and wanted to keep it that way. The bridge's color is officially called international orange!

Dean (6927 KP) rated John Wick. Chapter 4 (2023) in Movies

The first half of the film really cranks it up a level again. Donnie Yen as the blind assassin is class. Bill Skarsgard is a good choice of villian.
The only slight downers were the idea of bullet proof smart suits and having to suspend belief at times for some fights. John falling down tons of steps in one scene was silly.
Overall though a great action film with amazing fights if a little repetitive over the long run time. Maybe the 3rd is just a little better allround.

Trigger warning for this short, powerful book. There's abuse, emotional trauma, mention of suicide and stalking.
Flawless Witness is eye opening for both victims of a narcissist and people who have managed to avoid this kind of relationship. It opens the reader's mind to looking a little deeper when talking to people.
It reminded me of a short relationship I had with a man like that, controlling, always playing the victim and self-centred......just like Jonathan.
Suzanna is great, she's relatable and down to earth. The questions she asks herself and how she works her way through things shows the strength of character she has. Also how important a good support network is.
A thought provoking read that I'd recommend for daytime reading so there's plenty of thinking time. Also, book group worthy, would make for fantastic conversations.
