Awesome film!!!
OK. So I'll start by saying I loved the old wrong turns with the three hillbilly brothers causing mayhem, they were all budget but had a horror charm that I just loved! Going into this film I had high hopes for the cheesy budget hillbillys that I loved but no this delivered so much more! A complete new story with people living in the wilderness and sticking to what they know.

6 unfortunate friends head out on a hike just off a small rural town in America, it is all a great laugh until they start getting warnings from locals to stick to the trail and one of the characters causes a few problems with some of the towns people. The day after arriving they head off up into the forest exploring and enjoying themselves until they slip off track as warned not too, and all that waits is destruction and heartache. With alot of confusion as to what is happening to them, they make a terrible lack of judgement and must answer for the events that took place, to survive they must surrender to what they know and do what they can.

Brilliant film loved it from start to finish, and not your usual ending, normally they finish it and you want to see what comes next, but in this awesome movie they do exactly that! With a little bit of hope it has left it open for a possible 2nd one to come out!

I have to admit that I wasn’t expecting to enjoy Atomic Love as much as I did. This book does tick a lot of my boxes though: historical fiction, a bit of espionage, a real sense and feeling of the time and place, and a little bit of romance.

I haven’t read much historical fiction set in America in the 1950’s, so it was interesting to see that the women who had worked in important roles during the war, had been moved out to be replaced by the men returning from war - just the same as pretty much everywhere else.

Rosalind’s reasons for not working in Atomic Research are a little different. Her ex-lover, Weaver, had her removed after he wrote a report damning her ability and suitability. So, Rosalind finds herself working on a jewellery counter, doubting her abilities as a scientist. She’s lonely, struggling to make ends meet when two men suddenly turn up in her life: Thomas Weaver (her ex), and an FBI agent called Charlie Szydlo.

Charlie, an ex-Japanese prisoner of war, believes Weaver is spying for the Russians and feeding them important information in their own Atomic research. Charlie asks Rosalind to help him find out for sure if that’s what he’s doing. So against her better judgement, she does.

There’s a lot of tension running through this, both the dangerous and romantic kinds. It’s a great book that would have slipped under my radar if not for The Pigeonhole!

Whispers of the Walker ( The Gateway Trackers book 1)
By E. E. Holmes
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s been several years since Jess and Hannah Ballard foiled a cataclysmic prophecy that could have destroyed their fellow Durupinen, an ancient clan of women who allow spirits to cross between the worlds of the living and the dead. The girls swore, after the devastation and chaos they endured, they would never get caught up in the inner workings of the Durupinen again.

They were wrong.

After breaking the code of secrecy and facing the judgement of the High Council, Jess and Hannah have no choice but to become Trackers, working to take down those who would exploit the spirit world for profit or power. Their first assignment takes them into the deep South, where Jeremiah Campbell, a self-proclaimed spiritual guru, lures wealthy and desperate devotees with promises of a deeper connection with the dead. As the girls go undercover, it soon becomes clear that Campbell is not merely the con artist they suspected him to be, and that they, and the spirit world they are sworn to protect, are once again in unimaginable danger.

It was good! We pick up with the same characters from The Gateway Trilogy and if you haven’t read those I highly recommend especially before starting this series. It was slight drawn out in a few places but it was good to see where they have all developed. I’m hoping this series is as good as the first this book is definitely on the right track.
