Alicia S (193 KP) rated The Life of Anna: The Complete Story in Books

Read the entire series from start to finish... Dark, sick, twisted, so, so wrong and yet SO good!? By far the darkest series I've ever read and was surely tough to read at times, yet I simply can't put it down. Its all here... beyond anything you could imagine... and more. I kept hearing about this series and finally got my hands on it and my god.. My heart broke over and over again until I simply couldn't take any more (and then grabbed the next book of course!?). You know those books where your heart races, your blood boils and you find yourself shaking uncontrollably as you have a panic attack while reading....well, this is THAT series from start to finish!? Holy mindf$%k!!! Could NOT put it down!! A seriously evil, beautiful, heart-wrenching, loving, torturous book!? This series will make you feel everything.. from rage to love. HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who loves a dark, dark read!

I loved this series and I cannot wait to read the next one! although it made me tear up and want to throw it so many times I absolutely loved it! I'm not the greatest at writing reviews but this series is a must read if you enjoy heart wrenching books that end with a happily ever after! it may bring many tears to your eye's if you are as emotional as myself, but through those tears it will make you smile just as much!

Amazing protagonist (2 more)
Action packed
It's a page turner - you will not want to put the book down!
Great Start to the Series
A Court of Thorns and Roses was just a sea of feels. It took me a while to pick this up, because I'm in love with Sarah J Maas' other series, Throne of Glass, and was scared I was going to be disappointed. I was wrong. This book is a story retelling of Beauty and the Beast, but SJM just takes it to a whole other level. This book will keep you on the end of your seat, as you fall in love with the characters and the world. This is such a fantastic first book to this series, and it honestly just gets better from here on out! Definitely pick up this book if you haven't already!

I finished this last night and although it was good, particularly the last few chapters, it didn't grab me as much as I would like. I'm really not sure why this was but maybe it's because I have not read any of the other books in the series so I think I will read more from this author as I did like the writing style, the flow of the book and the characters.
I would like to thank the Publicist (Alison Barrow) for sending me the copy after responding to a post on Twitter.

CloudsGirl27 (2 KP) rated The Negotiation: A BDSM Romance in Books
May 23, 2018
This is the second novel in the "The Lawyer To The Doms" series. It was a short erotica book, and I couldn't get enough. I wish I got to know more about the characters and I was hoping the story would of been longer and with more depth. I'd read work by this author again, too. This book is definitely NOT fluffy, so I recommend it for the people who want to read a short naughty erotic book and are not afraid of rough language and BDSM scenes.
Kristina Rodriguez (1 KP) rated Poison Princess (The Arcana Chronicles, #1) in Books
Jun 29, 2018
Good begining
Kresley Cole has created an incredibly complex and surprising story line in this book. With romance, danger, relatability and a new take on Armageddon this book is the starter of the Arcana Chronicles. The book as a whole incorporates just enough romance to be relatively intriguing while not overpoweringly sappy. The series focuses on the growth and development of a 16 year old who is thrown into a world she literally dreamed of, and not in a good way. With zombies and superpowered teenagers based on tarot cards things are bound to get a little crazy. I recommend this book (and the series) to fantasy and fiction lovers.
Dean (6927 KP) rated The Girl in the Spider's Web (2018) in Movies
Nov 26, 2018 (Updated Nov 26, 2018)
Hmm
I was looking forward to this after having watched and enjoyed the original Swedish Girl with the Dragon tattoo series of films. Even the US remake of the original was very good because the story was just very interesting.
This feels very different. From the Bond like opening credits and plot about a programme that can hack any nuclear missile world wide. It's very broad in scope... Without actually having a big plot feel to it. It's not a bad film, it's an ok Thriller. After the high standards set by the other films though this is a step down. Check out the the Swedish ones if you haven't seen them.

David McK (3921 KP) rated Lion in the Valley (Amelia Peabody, #4) in Books
Jan 30, 2019
The fourth of Elizabeth Peter's Amelia Peabody series of books, this again sees the Victorian archaeologist return to Egypt, in the company of her husband and precocious son.
As before, they are then caught up in a mystery surrounding a murder as well as the usual romantic entanglements for these novels. This also sees the return of the 'Master Criminal' from the previous books, who is both named (obviously not his real name) and looks like becoming a recurring character in the series as a whole.
I found this to be a diverting enough read, but not up to the standards of the first novel, perhaps due to the fact that I am now familiar with the type of story it is.

LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated The Fate of the Furious (2017) in Movies
Jun 22, 2021
This 8th entry in the Fast & Furious series is a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, it's half a boring movie with a annoyingly cringey villain (not bashing Charlize Theron, but her character writing and direction is just awful), but on the other hand, it's more of the same stupid action that is laughably far away from the original at this point (not a bad thing). The entire last hour is ridiculous and so horrifically entertaining. Jason Statham taking out waves of thugs on an aeroplane with a gun in one hand, and a baby in the other, is definitely a series highlight. This franchise has essentially turned into that Tugg Speedman trailer from Tropic Thunder, and I'm ok with that.
