It's okay, take it or leave it
I have to agree, this was indeed a page turner. It started off with a bang and it was one event after another until our four characters started putting the pieces together. It got really thrilling at certain moments of the book and even you are left wondering what the heck is going on and you’re feeling just as lost and confused as the characters.

The plot itself in general was all right. Be prepared for some predictable scenes. It didn’t bother me as much as it was expected but there were plenty of moments in the book where you were blindsided with surprise which makes up for some of the predictability.

The characters were well done and complimented each other as a group despite each one having their differences. The narration done throughout the novel is by Caleb and Saralinda. Both characters are likable to an extent. I prefer reading Caleb’s side of the story instead of Saralinda only because she got annoying towards the second half of the novel. I thought she was trying too hard to be the happy nerdy girl with the forceful jokes. (You certainly CANNOT be thinking of first kisses and romance while you have the police and your murderous parents after you...seriously now?)

The read was all right. Some thrilling moments here and there and an ending that’s enough to close the story. Would I recommend this? Not really. I’d say more along the lines of: take it or leave it.

Destined Dragons ( New York dragons book 3)
By Terry Bolryder

Roxy is just a normal girl working hard to achieve her dreams. Until she saves someone's life, gets on the news, and winds up kidnapped by a group of mysterious men targeting brave-hearted women. Just when she's about to give up hope, two gorgeous men appear, rescue her and whisk her away to their castle-like mansion to keep her safe. It's all good, until the men claim to be dragon shifters who want her for their mate.

Sterling and Gentry are the powerful leaders of the New York dragons and still looking for the perfect mate. From the moment they meet the brave, independent, and curvy Roxy, they're sure she's the one for them. Now they just have to show her all the reasons she should be the mate of two sexy, capable dragon shifters who live for nothing but to please her, while keeping her safe from the men still stalking her.

But while things quickly get hot between Roxy and her sexy shifters, evil forces are also building to mount an attack. If the dragons want to protect Roxy from the most dangerous foes they've ever faced, they may have to make choices that could lose her forever.




The last of the anew stork dragons! We see the leader pair complete their triad! It was a quick read possibly could have had more depth but Overall it was ok! The series on a whole was good getting to know the dragon higheracy.

I love shark movies as much as the next guy. But this is poor by anyones anyones standard. It's slow to start with little to nothing happening and uninteresting characters. By the time they get to the "suspense" I'm already bored, I'm waiting for an oversized tooth fest of glorious sharkness. But what is delivered is sub par, new character shows up to immediately be taken out. Also the amount these 4 girls scream and heavy breather youd think they would be out of oxygen in 5 minutes. But carrying on they engage more drama being trapped under water with less oxygen than they started, exciting. So to provide suspense they find a safe pocket of air and one girl goes off to find help. Classic of course, so she finds a new character, who is immediately taken out. Seems the movie has a theme going here. Moving on they try to escape the cave systems and eventually find the dad character and they're gonna escape. But wait, pointless selfishness overcomes the group as the one individual who started the problems then costs them their chance to escape and the only saving grace is she dies as a result. After that there are some more unbelievable deaths, I suppose they're meant to shock you but honestly they're so daft it's just confusing an pointless. The ending is the best part they're saved no they're not they're saved etc and she fights a shark with a shark tooth. Otherwise its dull drawn out and predictable. Would not recommend.
