Lena Dunham recommended Ali: Fear Eats the Soul (1974) in Movies (curated)

Tom Turner (388 KP) rated Rome's Executioner in Books
May 11, 2021
This was most definitely a more cohesive book than the first book. This was mainly due to this book not having to say up as much as the first one did. There was far more of a linear storyline, and certainly moved away from the Sharpe-esqe series I mentioned it resonating with in the review for the previous book.
One thing I must say is, don't go into this book if you are faint of heart. You might survive the first 99%, but the last 1% might send you into therapy! It's certainly will change your relationship to the main character, Vespasian. Though the ending horrifies me, I'm intrigued enough to continue at my own risk.

I really liked this!
I was undecided on what book to read next so when this was just there waiting for me on my kindle I chose this and then spent the next hour or two reading almost half of it in one sitting, getting through 40% before I finally turned it off at a suitable point since I had to be up early the next morning.
I was so intrigued by the story and the will they/wont they thing they had going on. Reading how their relationship changed, it was really wonderful.
Definitely a book i'd recommend if you're looking for an emotional romance, it had me crying a time or two anyway.

Nothing ever runs smoothly, does it? And these twos relationship is no exception. Once again it's a roller coaster of emotion and feeling as Rush is once more pulled between his loyalty to his sister and his love for Blaire.
This series is emotional and you get so engrossed in Blaire and Rush's story that you feel like you're in the story with them, seeing it all happen right in front of you.
I need to find out what happens in the end with these two but I've noticed that Woods' story is book three in the Rosemary Beach series, so should I read his story next or go straight into Forever Too Far?? HELP?!?!

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Archangel's Storm (Guild Hunter, #5) in Books
Sep 5, 2019
For me, this was nowhere near as good as the previous four books. Jason didn't ooze sensuality like Raphael and Dmitri did and it took too long for me to get into the book, which is why it's taken me 13 days to read instead of the two/three the previous book did.
This one didn't focus on the relationship as such, and instead focused on the things happening in Neha's court. Admittedly it didnt hold my attention too much, until we uncovered who was behind it and then i was surprised and kinda glad for Mahiya, but it was still kinda blah.
I have the next book in the series and will be reading it very soon.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated The Sea of Tranquility in Books

This book had been on my radar for a few years--I know, a long time, right?--but I'd always put it off due to the price tag and the "do I really want to read it" question. So when I saw it on Scribd I thought let's try it.
I'm glad I did. It had a good build up throughout, both in relation to the Nastya and Josh thing and to Nastya's past. I really liked the relationship, though Nastya almost killed me when she pushed him away. The thing from her past felt a little flat for me, I expected more fireworks but I also understand why there weren't any.
A nice story overall.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Plan B in Books

I really liked this.
It drove me mad in places and made me want to cry/actually cry several times towards the end but it was such a lovely story with characters I grew to really like (hence the crying when things weren't going so well).
They were different; one a jock, the other a theatre major. One out and so proud, the other not so much.
Reading their relationship develop over time was really great and I loved it. It was sweet at times and kinda heart-breaking at others but in the end everything worked out, which is always good in a book.
I look forward to reading more books by the author

Erika (17789 KP) rated True Blood - Season 2 in TV
Aug 22, 2020
Season Two of True Blood is probably one of my favorite seasons. I feel like the storytelling was complex and interesting enough to hold my attention better.
The best part of this season was learning more about Eric, and his relationship with Godric. The next best story line is Jason's, with him joining the crazy, fundamentalist church. It was hilarious because it was so true to life.
I'm not a huge fan of Tara or Arlene in general, so those were the sections of the eps that I found tedious.
Of course, this season ends with a huge and intriguing cliff-hanger, and you have to prepare to meet the newest supernatural species in the next season.
