With this third book in the Fairest Maidens series Jody Hedlund gives us a wonderful retelling of Sleeping Beauty! Jody Hedlund gave me just what I wanted to end the series, a dashing hero, applicable life lessons, and a story that hooked me from the start. I was caught up in the first chapter of Besotted. Kresten is a dreamy hero, I loved he sense of self, and his caring nature. Aurora captivated me Jody Hedlund did a great job laying out her character and giving her that hint of mystery. Together Kresten and Aurora are perfect they play off each other well and truly seem to be each others other half. They have a strong duty to others and the strength of character to do what's in the best interest of others over what's best for you

I would say this is my favorite book in the series but then again, the others were good too :) I give Besotted 5 out of 5 stars.
*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

Slick and energetic but has the exact same plot as at least 80% of all the children's animated movies from the last 40 years (and not even a good version of it, I'll forget most of this by the end of the week, tops). This isn't even an hour/45 but it feels like a century when you know all (and I do mean *all*) the beats it's going to take, verbatim. Try to picture π˜‹π˜¦π˜΄π˜±π˜ͺ𝘀𝘒𝘣𝘭𝘦 π˜”π˜¦ without the charm or visual imagination. Will Smith plays himself yet again, shocker - and Holland is relegated to the irritating 'soft boi sidekick' role and everyone learns life lessons about how violence is never the answer. Are you fucking kidding me with this shit lmfao. Actually half watchable when it leans into its surreal kinetic energy, has a few laughs - otherwise hardly tries enough to be awful but it's still quite smug. I also loathe these crushingly uninspired character/set designs, and there's a lot more anus and crotch jokes than I was initially expecting. If this were a bit more experimental it'd at least be a curio, but there's almost nothing to it.

Sweet Flick!!
144. Brigsby Bear. An amazing movie, that's pretty original, therefore no one will go see it. So... one day James' world came crashing down. He lives in a bunker, cause the air outside is poison, the only two people he's ever known, his parents, aren't exactly telling him the truth about certain things. Like everything. Turns out, his parents arent his parents (and considering one of these people is Luke Skywalker, he should know about parent confusion). Ted and April kidnapped James as a child and raised him in this odd universe they created for him. And that includes Brigsby Bear, a TV show (the only TV show) that James has watched since his time here began. Brigsby pretty much teaches James all the lessons he needs to know and creates this whole world full of magic... And then the police come and end it all, now James is faced with the truth, his parents were criminals and the world as he knows it, does not exist. A whole new family, a whole new life... but, Brigsby Bear's role in it is far from over! See it.
