I'm not sure what I think about this novel. I know that I liked it. I like Kitty Thomas' novels because they force me to think. I enjoyed the different aspects in this novel.

It seems that so many people are interested in BDSM and don't realize the depth that BDSM can go. I love the fact that Kitty showed the good along with the bad. Too many people think that BDSM is abuse and not in fact a lifestyle.

The characters are different and had some depth to them. This wasn't your run of the mill BDSM novel. It's not roses without the thorns. It's gritty and it forces you to look at your beliefs.

A very good sequel to the first film. Just as bloody and violent as the first, maybe more so! There is plenty of action and it never really lets up. The way it is filmed especially the first attack in the house is raw and gritty and makes you feel you are there fighting for survival to! However the plot is a bit similar to most zombie films and obvious at times. The geography of London has changed a fair bit to taking minutes to get from east to central London if only! lol Overall a great thrill ride with plenty of action and memorable scenes, but you know what to expect by now.

"Finally another American band. Aerosmith. They are a classic rock & roll band. What am I gonna say? It's just such a sexy, gritty record. I think I've said this about a lot of these records [laughs]. But it's got vibe, you know... Aerosmith have a kind of danger element to them. You know the history of the band, it's well-documented. You could hear it almost coming apart at the seams almost all the time, and the fact that it didn't... They were just riding that line. The rhythm section was amazing. The way Brad Whitford and Joe Perry played together... I mean, give it a listen, it's a classic rock album."

"When I first met Peter Quill in Kyln, I ain’t never heard of a “raccoon,” but he made me watch this movie and… aww flarg, I loved it! It’s a gritty tale about a wily raccoon that gets abducted by one of Quill’s ancient ancestors in some cheese hut called “Wisconsin.” The little guy unleashes a whole lot of krutack on his captors and eventually cons the kid into letting him go free. It reminded me of my own childhood, when I got stuck in a lab on Halfworld. That’s where I met my best bud Groot. This flick had us bawling like saplings. BUT DON’T TELL QUILL! I don’t want him to know we was gettin’ sentimental…"

Out Ta Get Me by Guns N' Roses

Track

"An absolute fucking testament to paranoia, to anger, and to blame. It's fantastic. 'They're out to get me, they won't catch me, I'm fucking innocent'... that's just fucking brilliant, absolutely brilliant. It's a youth anthem. Things like this weren't really addressed: the paranoia of it all. The dark side of life wasn't really looked at in rock, apart from theatrically, with Black Sabbath and Alice Cooper. It wasn't really looked at sociologically, and in my opinion Guns N' Roses were one of the first bands to tackle it properly. All the fantasies and romanticism that had gone before were there, but there was also a gritty side to it. The comedown side to it. The real side to it."
