Short, slightly unbelievable, erotic romance.

I found the whole concept just a little odd. A company that forces you to have sex with the clients they have while you keep cleaning their house or risk deportation back to whatever country you came from??

The romance was kinda sweet when it got into it and though story was a little unrealistic for me, I liked it.

"I found this book so educational in terms of what it must have been like to grow up in America, discovering you need to harbor a secret. And the yearning in these pages is so palpable."

A hidden gem
I was scrolling around netflix and found yhis hidden gem. I never heard of it. A lot of big names in this film. It was a fun film to watch and to learn from. Every action you do might effect others, so watch out.

Ok but
This app is okay for music got a massive variety etc. But I found it was expensive I'm using Amazon music at the moment if you have Amazon prime get Amazon music as it's cheaper. Spotify does however recommend amazing stuff that I usually like.

Loved It
I loved every single moment of this movie and found myself laughing so much. Marvel just keeps putting out some fantastic movies and I cannot wait to see what comes next. If you haven't seen this action-packed movie then get to it immediately!!!

I won a copy of this book on Goodreads. I was very much anticpating its arrival and I am pleased to say that I was not disappointed!
If you are not afraid of being out in the woodsat night, you will be after you read this book! Hell you may even be scared of forests in the daylight too. The characters throughoutbthe book are weel developed. While there were a few "typical" characters many of them were shown to have quirks or traits thatnare not typical of a suspense novel.
The plot was well paced. The suspense factor was always high...I found myself constantly wondering who would be next. Yet at the same time it wasn't too over the top. The story contained enough events that were reality based that you even found yourself convinced that the fantastical elements were just as likely to be real.

Okay, I'm going to be honest. This book is not a complete novel. If you're going to read this book, you need to know the story and plot of the first book ("Beautiful Disaster"). I did enjoy this novel but I had to reread the first novel while reading this book.

The characters are lovable and I found myself laughing and smiling while reading this book. I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed "Beautiful Disaster." I do recommend that you reread the first book before you take on this novel.

"This film about intimacy and longing was the first movie I saw by Wong Kar-wai. He has found a way to draw you into the personal lives of strangers and wrap you in their secrecy. The visual style and sense of color still intrigue me."

I didn't finish this book. I found Deep Work very redundant and obvious. Yes, it is clear we have a problem in our society of being able to focus. Anyone who works with or has their own kids will be able to tell you that, and how it’s related to technology. I’m happy you’ve done some research to back it up, but I found the book very dry.

Not only that, the kinds of people who will be reading (or listening) to this genre is already totaly aware of the problem, so again, I found it redundant. Not only that, the book itself was very dry and dull to listen to. Sadly it’s not on my top list.
