Fake it till you make it and let your nerd flag fly. This book is everything a nerdy bookish girl could ever dream of. The plot is simple but for anyone who dreams of a nerdy happily ever after this is a one sitting read. References to popular book stores and fandoms make it that much more enjoyable.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this and review.
  
This is the first book in this series by this author. This book has fantastic characters which just pull you in. This is an very well written story. This book has laughs, secrets, heartbreak and some twists and turns giving you an amazing read. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended

Short but sweet, naughty and nice, and sooooo funny, Tiffany Reisz has done it again. A brilliant read for an afternoon, and it's really easy to get along with that its as if you already know the characters.

Such a thoughtful wedding pressie from a character from another book ( sorry, i am not giving it away ;-))

I love the Bell hop, I think I might need more of him x

Original programming (0 more)
When Netflix started it was an alternative to video stores. Now that Blockbuster is gone, Netflix has decided to all but give up on giving us new and classic studio movies to watch in favor of original programming. Now we're paying for essentially another network. I'd rather them have Blade, Alien, Old School and all the movies I want to see rather than 13 Reasons or whatever.

A different sound but in a good way
This album is amazing! The boys have shown what they can do in a new way, creating songs that are a bit different from the usual fall out boy sound. I was lucky enough to see them live recently & this album done live is just amazing!!! Love it!!

There's no such thing as A Simple Favour (2018) #Review
From the opening strains of Jean Paul Keller’s “Ca S'est Arrange”, you can practically feel Paul Feig donning on a black turtleneck and slipping into auteurship with a mischievous sense of insouciance. He’s in playful mood indeed as he indulges his inner Hitchcock even as he can’t quite resist giving in to his quirky comedic instincts...

Simple rules but clever gaming (0 more)
Puzzling brain buster
This game is simple. By every tree is one tent but no tent can be pitched in any adjacent square, neither vertically or horizontally or diagonally. Now you go find those tents. The rules are simple but this will test your grey matter. It's a very clever puzzle game and works so well by giving you a sense of achievement.

Peter Cowie recommended Häxan (1922) in Movies (curated)

 
Häxan (1922)
Häxan (1922)
1922 | Documentary, Fantasy, Horror

"Scandinavian cinema has, I admit, obsessed me for most of my career as a critic. But all credit to Criterion for giving this bizarre and seductive silent film from 1922 the same loving attention as they would a new release by Richard Linklater or Mike Leigh. For extra value, the DVD includes an abridged version of the movie issued in 1968, with a sly offscreen narration by William S. Burroughs."

It was really interesting reading from the Stranger's point of view. I was close to giving it a 3 star review, but something about the ending left me entirely disappointed. I felt like the Stranger became too tamed, more tame than he would have liked, by having children with Laney. Wish I could explain more how exactly I felt about the ending, but I did not care for it.

In this collection, Rachel Joyce connects seven short stories that span from just before Christmas Eve through New Year's Eve. What is most interesting is that Joyce not only arranges these tales chronologically, she also links them with other elements. You can read my review of this book (that I'm giving 4.5 stars out of 5) here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2017/04/15/the-eves-of-winter-stories/
