More amazing characters created by [Sherryl D. Hancock]. She is a master at developing a realistic relationship through the words she writes on a page. [Everything to Everyone] is no exception. The idea of your first love coming back into you life is always a good one and the WeHo gang keeps growing.

For one, I'm glad this was realistic. It's was pretty good storytelling and it was quickly paced. I <3 Michael Pena in everything. Michael Shannon did a great job too, and I like watching Chris Hemsworth in general. It wasn't Black Hawk Down good, but it was good enough to warrant another viewing.

One of the brothers dies very quickly which was disappointing but I guess it makes more realistic. Overall I liked it but for me it's a one off film.

Not my normal reading
Gave this a chance as it was on the lending shelf at the hotel, and found myself pleasantly surprised. I’m not a fan or James’s fifty shades trilogy, but this I kind of enjoyed. Whilst still fantastical, the characters were slightly more realistic and likeable.

This is a comprehensive book giving a clear, challenging yet simple and realistic exhortation for how to engage in sabbath practice. Overall I found it very helpful with good ideas and practical advice. My only criticisms are that I found the structure hard to follow and it was a little repetitive at times.

"The lives of ordinary people in a second rate city are given depth and tragic resonance in sensually realized prose. “The Dead,” in particular succeeds in rendering a perfectly realistic scene: a holiday party, brilliantly capturing different voices and registers, and then wallops us with a vision of life, love, death and meaning."
