Quotable Lines
The Book that Inspire the movie... The greatest Romantic Action Comedy of all time... "They’re kissing again. Do we have to read the kissing parts?"
The only downside to reading this book, is that there is almost nothing the movie didn't cover... if you are looking for hidden gems the movie left out, you will be disappointed, otherwise this might be one of a few perfect adventure books of all time.

Wow
I loved it
Couldn't put it down.
This is the second book in the fatal dreams series and although you can read it as a standalone I would recommend reading the first one, race the darkness.
I enjoyed the way Abbie writes and although this is a romantic paranormal suspense it also has quite a few grisly crime scenes.
I would certainly recommend this book and I'll probably include it in a future monthly book box at www.andrelaxbookboxes.co.uk

spoiler: jar jar is now working as a clown at an orphanage. highlight of the book. just kidding.
great wrap up to the trilogy even though I didn't fully love the final romantic pairing for sinjir, but that's my personal preference. sinjir + jas imo lol
love how it explains what's on Jakku and how it may explain where snoke may be from, and the battle that happened on jakku, which we see the remains of in the force awakens.

Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated Seven Viking Romances in Books
Aug 13, 2018
This is very easy to read, unlike a lot of translated classics. I highly recommend it. It is interesting as to what is classified as a romance, as the first story of the the seven wouldn't be deemed to the modern standards of romantic. However, after getting to know the definition of romance in this context, this is very different to the way we look at romance - in terms of love and gestures, the book becomes increasingly interesting.

Funny
Better than expected
I thought this was going to be an ok/ bad movie, but it was actually really good. The movie follows multiple characters and there dogs, and each story line was entertaining in its own way. The movie had a lot of funny parts, but still managed to get serious during some of the story lines. I would recommend this to anyone who likes romantic comedies, or someone looking for an unexpected jewel.

Katey Bassett (610 KP) rated Daughters of the Lake in Books
Dec 10, 2018
This book was a lot different than I thought it was going to be, there were certain parts that really sucked me in and there were other parts that sort of seemed like they went unfinished. I felt like the romantic aspect was slightly far fetched with the detective and there were a lot of details left out about Celeste. Overall, very quick read and I was glad to have gotten this book from Kindle First.

David McK (3562 KP) rated Jeeves and the Tie That Binds (Jeeves, #14) in Books
Jan 30, 2019
Known in the UK as <i>Much Obliged, Jeeves</i>, this is the penultimate of PG Wodehouse's Jeeves books (the last being <i>Aunt's aren't Gentlemen</i>). This one features his <quote/unquote> 'deserving Aunt Dahlia' as opposed to his Aunt Agatha, and also features a previously-unknown-to-the-reader old school friend of Bertie Wooster in Ginger Winship.
Cue the usual romantic entanglements and sheenanigans!
(oh, and we also find out Jeeves first name (it's Reginald))

Finally, a return to the way vampires should be- monsters that go bump in the night rather than brooding romantic interests. If you like your vampires scary rather than sexy, this show is for you.
I adored the book series this show is based on, and it took me a couple of episodes to accept the changes that had been made. I hope this gets a second series and they delve deeper into the issues raised in the novels.

Punishment and Revenge
Eden Lake- is a very underrated horror jem, that not all of people know about, heard about and seen.
The plot: A young couple on a romantic weekend break at a remote lakehouse, are terrorised by a group of vicious delinquents.
Kelly Reily, Micheal Fassbender and Jack O'Connel are really good in this movie.
Its scary, terrorfying, horrorfying, suspenseful, thrilling, chilling and overall a great horror movie.
I would highly reccordmend this movie.
