Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Beast (2017) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
Beast is the story of a troubled woman (played by Jessie Buckley) living in an isolated community who finds herself pulled between the control of her oppressive family and the allure of a secretive outsider (played by Johnny Flynn) who is suspected of a series of brutal murders. As the relationship grows between them, the movie takes us on an uneasy journey as she breaks away from her family and movies in with Pascal, after he is suspected of the murders, Moll stands by him against her families wishes and the suspicions of the town-folk where she lives.
Directed and written by Michael Pearce, Beast, which is his first full-length feature is a stunning movie, he takes his time to build up the points in the film that have your jaw dropping and treats the production as something that you don’t just watch, you get sucked into and feel as if you have become part of the community watching from afar an still being shocked by the outcomes.

High Flying Murder
This year, the Destination Murders authors are taking to the air. Yes, we get some murders on planes, but we also have a zipline, hot air balloon, blimp, and a couple of fun ones I’m going to let you discover for yourself. We travel to Costa Rica, Las Vegas, Vermont, and Tennessee in these stories that find murder an unwelcomed traveling companion.
As always with these collections, the author lineup has changed slightly. For the authors who are returning, I look forward to catching up with their sleuths whether I’ve read books with these characters or not. I do have to remind myself these are short stories, so the stories aren’t quite as complex. They’re still fun, overall (one ended abruptly), and I’m glad I took the time to read them. These eight stories combine for the equivalent of a full novel, so you are getting your money’s worth. Pack this for your next vacation, but maybe read it when you are on the ground.

The hosts are so likeable, you could probably enjoy the show even if you aren’t into true crime (2 more)
Production Values are excellent
Murderinos (listeners of the show and true crime buffs) feel like friends and fans of the show often do meet ups and contribute to charity
The ads (2 more)
The stories are only generally researched and might not be completely factual
The hometown murders segments have evolved into content that doesn’t pertain to the show’s subject matter
Yeah, I’m a murderino

I really enjoyed this book, its an easy read, I especially enjoyed the back and forth between the centuries given you a background as to why the murders are happening.
I love the fact its set in Oxford its refreshing to see a dark side to the picturesque city!
It was slightly predictiable near the end but it does not effect the enjoyment of the read.
I recommend this as a holiday book or if your traveling a long distance.

Entertainment Editor (1988 KP) rated The Sims™ Mobile in Apps
Jan 29, 2018 (Updated Jan 29, 2018)
The Sims is probably a household name synonymous with electrical fires and random pool murders.
Some might even mistake the game for an interior design simulator but let's not kid ourselves here. Well, recently, we got to try out the new Sims Mobile which was released for the iOS and the Android, and early looks proved to be deceiving.

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This book contains discussions of childhood sexual abuse This is a very tense, well-plotted thriller that managed to surprise me quite a few times! It's the story of two men, Jakob in 1973 and Matthew in 2014. Both deal in some pretty gruesome murders and their fates are linked when a mummified corpse is discovered.
AT (1676 KP) rated Erased, Vol. 1 in Books
Jul 22, 2019
I really liked the first volume of Erased. There's a lot of mystery to it, even though you feel like you know what's going to happen. The main character of the story is sent back in time to his fifth grade year to try and prevent a string of kidnappings and murders. Along with that, he has to relive those days as a fifth grader, with his adult knowledge and life skills. It's a delicate and sometimes awkward balance for him.
