AJaneClark (3975 KP) rated Medusa’s Master (Medusa Project #3) in Books

Nov 25, 2019

Storyline (0 more)

Mills & Boon Ninja??

Captain “Kat” Kim, leader of the all female Medusa Squad, lives by a warrior code. When she pairs with Special Forces Captain Jeff Steiger, she faces new danger. Steiger is all-American, from his blue eyes to his sun-streaked hair, his laid back manner goes against Kat’s control freak ways. When the two hunt for a high end art thief, their opposite styles combust!

A quick easy read... Dees has a well thought out storyline, but limited to the standard short form of a mills and boon. Characters were slightly underdeveloped and there was a few gaps that could have done with some further follow up as the story and Kat and Jeff’s relationship progressed. Some funny moments, the odd heated moment. But overall fairly average

Eleanor (1463 KP) rated The Testaments (The Handmaid's Tale #2) in Books

I enjoyed this and although maybe controversial to admit to but preferred it to the Handmaids Tale (gasp.) It was no doubt helped by a decent cast on the audiobook (Ann Dowd, Bryce Dallas Howard, Derek Jacobi, Mae Whitman, Margaret Atwood, Tantoo Cardinal.)

Although set in the world of the Handmaid's tale we are in the POVs of different characters this time and three of them at that. With accounts from Gilead, a view from a Commander's daughter and also from an Aunts, and a look into the nation's relationship with Canada it's a very different experience from the Handmaids Tale. I found it a more satisfying storytelling experience than its predecessor.

It may not be the direct follow on from the previous novel some hoped for but it worked for me.

This documentary is one of my favorites. It's really hard to watch at some points, not because it's bad, but just because it's cringy and uncomfortable. It's surprising to me that people still catfish to this day, but I guess it works out for Nev because he made an 8 season show about it.

I wish they would make an addendum or something to see what their relationship is like now. It's been 10 years since the film came out and 12 since it all actually happened. Nev is married and has two kids now. He said, a couple of years after the film came out, that Angela is still a big part of his life, but that was 8 years ago. I wonder where they are now.
