Such a good book! Mental illness can be a very touchy subject and I feel like Nicola handled it with grace and opened the reader's eyes to being on the inside. The pacing is perfect, not feeling rushed like some romances can. All of the characters are perfectly crafted, their flaws making them even more relatable and harder to let go of at the end. Fantastically written!

I'm just not feeling this series. Too many unnecessary characters brought in, too much jumping around from location to location, perspective to perspective. Just as I feel like I'm getting into it and the story is getting good, it's all change again. I would've much preferred to focus on the main story, with fewer distracting side stories that don't really go anywhere or need telling.

Meh
Usually I am down for revenge porn movies and I LOVE Jennifer Garner but this movie didn't really cut the mustard. There were a few decent scenes, my favorite was with the main character and her neighbor but overall it just wasn't that good. It didn't feel very genuine. I'm not sure why but the whole thing came across as stilted and forced.

Okay so I want to ask a question. I know most of us, in not all, have TBR lists. Mine is currently at about 500 (most are freebies that looked good) and I always end up grabbing other books that I end up reading before I actually get to my list. Does anyone else have this problem? I feel like I might be alone in this.

The iPad is my preferred reader simply because it has the beautiful feature of showing a page turning. The iPad definitely holds more than my basic eReaders.

One of the worst low budget slashers I've seen. Even going well past the it's so bad, it's good in a funny way. This Austrian offering from 2005 really does look and feel like an 80's slasher. The script, acting, gore, lighting everything is just bad! The main character speaks and acts like she has an IQ of about 50. Skip past this....

I really enjoyed this book it was a lovely feel good story. the characters were fab and really grew as the story unfolded. the story line was well written and kept me reading long into the night. the characters were very well written and you were able to understand both of them. ill defiantly be looking out for more from this author.
 highly recommended

A Great Feel Good Movie
Although this film doesn't reflect the reality of P.T Barnum's life; it misses out some of the darker elements to this story, I think the empowering message of this film, combined with fantastic songs and magical visuals, will put a smile on your face.

A short and sweet book, but I would have been happy to read more! These are very human Gods: Thor seems rather challenged in the brain department, and Loki is the annoying child at the party (or anywhere!).
This is the complete opposite to the Marvel movies (neither a good or bad thing), and I feel it's more faithful to the original myths (go figure!). Thoroughly recommended!
  
Meeh, it's a good story but it falls flat in the fact in that the author figures you've read the earlier books in that world. So a lot of items/events are spoken of but never actually explained. Didn't really feel like a story but more like "here's part 1 with a cliffhanger". The only thing I've read from this author is Southern Fried Dragon.

A shock of a joy as I don’t like musicals,a feel good movie with all the boxes ticked Great tunes ,well thought out sets. From the opening to the end credits your wrapped up within the warmth of the movie ..ok the story’s a little week but it’s the heart of the the film that matters ..and it’s just a joy to watch ..
