Loving a lady assasin
I was extremely skeptical when I started watching this show. I did not have a ton of background information on what it was about. I was hooked almost immediately. Both the detective and the assasin are smart asses which also makes the drama very funny. Definately worth a watch.

Amazing performance by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Wonderful story about the life as a famous person and the toll it can have on a human being. And finally - the importance to always stay true to who you are, and tell the world your story in your own words. They will listen, and some will stay, some will go, but at least you won't have the burden to try and please the wrong crowd.

Track

"There are a lot of people right now who are toying with the idea of mystery — Lady Gaga, for example — but M.I.A. is an actual enigma. She's self-aware and toys with the notion of "Who am I?" She's actually singing about something meaningful, but she's putting it in the context of dance and rap. It's like looking at a bunch of bicycle reflectors; you're just not sure what's actually going on. But that's good."

Lady of Thorns (Two Thrones #3) by Nicola M. Cameron
Lady of Thorns is the third book in the Two Thrones series, and we focus on two characters we met in the previous book. Amelie and Alain are about as opposite as you can get - noble-born and street rat who has worked hard and got himself a career. However, their births play no part as the sparks fly between these two. They are evenly matched in intelligence, wit, and humour. And then, through Amelie's courage, they find out they are matched in other areas too. With the Harvest Ball coming up, her mother to contend with, and a husband to find, Amelie is happy to take her chances whilst she can. And of course, it doesn't hurt to have a Queen as your best friend!

It was wonderful returning to this world. It is easy to read, and the characters are all superb. It is smoothly written, with no editing or grammatical errors that I found. I would have loved to have heard more about Matthias and Danae, but then I am greedy where they are concerned. All in all, this book was thoroughly enjoyable, and completely un-put-downable. Palace of Scoundrels is still my favourite so far, but Lady of Thorns is absolutely recommended in every way.
