Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Hangman (2017) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
So from the sound of Hangman starring Al Pacino and Karl Urban sounded great when I first read the synopsis for the movie, a decorated homicide detective Ray Archer (Al Pacino) partners with criminal profiler Will Ruiney (Karl Urban) to catch one of the city’s notoriously vicious serial killers, who is playing a twisted version of murder inspired by the children’s game Hangman. Every 24 hours, a body is hung revealing the next letter carved into the victim’s body.

Every teen should have this
Kids learning about sex is good. It's proven that those who do are more likely to be in healthy relationships, lose their virginity later and have less sexual partners.
I bought this for my son for him to learn at his own pace, it has everything a modern teen may want to know about as well as teaching the importance of positive relationships. If I was in government I'd make sure this got in the hands of every secondary school pupil.
Brilliant book presented in a fun and interesting way.

Eleanor (1463 KP) rated Little Secrets in Books
Feb 7, 2021
A gripping thriller and considering it incorporates a lot of my usually least favorite themes (missing kid, unfaithful partners...) it speaks a lot to how good a writer Hillier is. that I bombed through this once I started it.
The lives of the rich and stylish often grate but I was fully in for celebrity hair stylish Marin's turbulent existence following the abduction of her young son.
This book went in unexpected directions and despite some eyebrow-raising coincidences kept me on board for the whole journey.
Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the copy.

Katie Guinn (34 KP) rated Two Girls Down: A Novel in Books
Dec 7, 2018
Kylie and Bailey Brandt vanish from a shopping mall parking lot while their mother is buying a birthday present. Single mom Jamie quickly realizes that the overworked local police department is not the best option for finding her daughters, so she hires former bounty hunter Alice Vega, famous for finding missing people. Vega partners up with ex-cop/private investigator Max “Cap” Caplan to find the sisters. The result is a tense, twisty ride that I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved Alice Vega, she reminded me of Lisbeth Salander: tougher than battery acid, but completely awkward at personal interaction. I’m really looking forward to more books featuring her character.

What happened Stephen King?
Contains spoilers, click to show
When you think of Stephen King you think of Horror, Pennywise, Salems Lot, Creepshow etc etc.
Not when you watch this. The plot just seems so out of touch for Stephen King. Not his 'norm' at all. Maybe a good thing?
The plot? ODD.
At first I thought I was watching a young, pregnant couple. No, brother and sister. They seem too "involved" to be anything but romantic partners.
Then theres the strange, out of the blue characters (that do not blend in with the storyline), you meet along the way.
You will scream at the ending, all that for nothing.
