Movie Favorite

"Big Night, the Stanley Tucci movie. Yeah, it feels like a play. It feels like you are watching this beautiful bare bones version of filmmaking. Especially after all of the big event or spectacle films, it just feels so simple and so beautiful, and it’s a heartbreakingly beautiful story about learning what’s important. Also, I love to cook, and cooking is such a big, pivotal part of that movie, and Tony Shalhoub is amazing in it, as is Stanley Tucci. It’s just a great cast, a great film, superbly written, superbly directed, and just nice and simple and bare bones, and I love that about it."

Hmm...this one didnt quite grab me, either, like the first two did. As much as i love Quinn and the last half of this book, the first half with Cora...well, i just wanted to throw my kindle/laptop/phone because it felt so wrong! She was so horrible and Quinn was so lovely.

One thing i do love about this series, though, is how close this gang is. They all rib and tease each other but will stick up for each other in a heartbeat. It's so nice!

I can't wait to read Ten and Caroline's story so I'm off to start it right now :D

Kristina (502 KP) rated The Opportunist (Love Me with Lies, #1) in Books

I was a little weary of starting this series. Tarryn isn't known for her HEAs. As much as I enjoyed Mud Vein, it was a bit dark for my taste - and Marrow was completely confusing. I did love F*ck Love, though, so I decided to give the rest of her books a try. I'm really glad I did! I started The Opportunist on the 3rd of June. The only reason it took me 4 days to read is because I don't read when my husband is off work. I loved the story, I loved the characters, and I loved all the obstacles! Most certainly a one-of-a-kind read!

I can't believe that I haven't logged this movie before. This movie has been in my list of top five movies of all time since I watched it, and almost nothing has been able to topple it. This film is so brilliant and amazing. I absolutely love the insane amount of time that Nolan spent on making this film as perfect as it is. I could rant about this film forever, but I'll keep it short. I love the characters, the story is fantastic, and I get something new out of it each time that I watch it. I can't even count how many times I've seen it.

Reminiscent of FLASH, Innocence Tainted is about Dr. Oralia, who wakes from a coma after being struck by lightening only to find she has gained supernatural powers. I highly enjoyed this story. It was easy to like Oralia, especially with the main theme of the book being self-discovery/transformation. Her traumatic past was what I emphasized with the most, and I love that this part of who she is wasn't overdone. She is strong and vulnerable, decisive and thoughtful. I love how empowering she is as not only as a heroic figure, but as a black woman. Stories like this are so needed in the world!
