If you're a fan of dark romance this is a MUST READ series!!!
Tess & Q will always hold a special place in my heart as the Monsters in the Dark series was my first dark romance. Quickly falling absolutely in love with Pepper's writing, I anticipate each one more than the next. This was a beautiful, perfect visit with old friends and the HEA Tess and Q deserved. Their story broke me and this ending was more than I could have ever expected. I hurt for them watching them struggle through this new territory in their relationship and it was beyond painful to see Q beat himself up the way that he did... HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended book, series & author. If you're a fan of dark romance this is a MUST READ series!!!

A very cute and funny book. Have only read the first in the series but i did enjoy it. It didn't keep any hold on me when I finished it which is a shame, I read this one quite a while ago and haven't looked into buying the others, I believe there are better series out there. The art is a bit bland, so it's not really anything special to look at, the vampire thing has been done over and over again, I didn't find this one to be that original, it was just another book to read really as it did sound interesting. I think I will pick up the rest of the series eventually but after I have finished the series that are keeping my interest the most.

Lots of action
Good 3rd series
Well this 3rd series came as a big surprise as the actor playing Riggs is no longer a part of the show and wasn't replaced. So effectively it is no longer Lethal Weapon as we only have Murtaugh. Slightly odd decision but we now have Seann William Scott who is suitabley cast as a slightly crazy former CIA agent now partnered with Murtaugh.
The chemistry is good and generally quite funny a lot of the time, along with the usual action and shoot outs you expect. I didn't think I would enjoy this series as much with the big cast change. However it is nearly as good as the first two series. Maybe they should have called it something else though.
  
I didn't enjoy this as much as the first series: Victoria's with Max Pesero and Sebastian.

It just didn't grab me as much or seem as filled with details like the first one. We didn't read her training, or see as much of her life--or maybe she just didn't do as much as Victoria did, what with all her balls and meeting other ladies and the likes.

t's interesting reading a new series based around one I love but set 100 years later. I like that Sebastian's in it and maybe I'm just a crazy romantic but I'd love for him to get his HEA that he never got in the first series--maybe, possibly, with Macey??

I'll definitely be reading the next book in the series when it comes out.

Interesting enough series
First point I haven't seen the film so can't say how it compares to that. Overall I enjoyed this it was an entertaining enough series to watch over a few evenings. The casting and acting is decent and the premise interesting. There are quite a few plot holes that require you to suspend disbelief but if you can look past these it is an decent enough series. The season finale was a little bit disappointing it is obviously setting up for a second series but it did feel a bit predictable and didn't really deliver the suspense it was trying to which was a shame as the 2 episodes before were much more exciting so felt a bit of an anticlimax.

Cool Ferrari
Good action scenes
Cool TV series
Well I can guess the low ratings are from people who don't like it compared to the original 80's series. A female Higgins probably didn't go down well? I don't remember much about the old series apart from set on Hawaii, Tom Selleck, Ferrari and the English butler with the Doberman dogs.
20 years since that ended this is the reboot. It keeps all those elements, with a modern Ferrari and T. C. with an identical Helicopter.
Now that Hawaii 5o has finished if you want a light hearted action series in a beautiful location, this is it. Some good action scenes and cameos from the original cast. It's easy viewing, maybe not as funny as it thinks but generally a good watch.

Silly surreal episodes
Oh dear Eve
I didn't think there was going to be a 4th series after the ending of the 3rd. After watching this maybe they should have stuck at 3. It's not at the same level as the previous series, not as witty, funny and feeling a bit rushed towards the end.
The first few episodes are very odd and a bit surreal and don't fit in. After getting back on track of finding out more about the 12 it then all comes to a very quick conclusion in the last couple of episodes. Still has some funny scenes and a bit more back story to some characters. Overall though a 4th series we didn't need.

If you haven't yet read any Jennifer L Armentrout then your missing out!

Jennifer writing is so easy to get lost in whether your reading her Young Adult, New Adult or General fiction she has the ability to capture the reader better than most authors I've ever read.


The Titan Series is the Sequal to Jennifer Covanant series. If you haven't yet read Covanant please read it especially if you love Greek mythology. Covanant follows a very empowered amazing female lead called Alexandra Andros where as The Return follows Seth.


Seth is an extremely complex and amazing character if you have read the Covanant series you know Seth started out as a egoticial hard man Apolloyon who through the series change due to Alexs influence.


The Return Seth no longer has Alex as his conscious and guide. Seth has to repent for his mid deeds from the covanant series and it doesn't help he suddenly has feeling for his new charge. I love this book a lot not as much as the original Covanant series but it still amazing all the same plus Seth and Apollo arguments egos and bitch fighting can keep me amused for days.
  
13 Reasons Why - Season 2
13 Reasons Why - Season 2
2018 | Drama
More compelling, deep teen drama
The second series follows a similar format to the first - where the first series focused on a different character's tape, and therefore that person's role in Hannah's suicide; this series uses each character's testimony in a trial against the school. Some of the story of the first series is shown to have been one person's side of the story, others are expanded on and shown to be very different.
Each episode is enjoyable and gripping. You start to hate some characters less; others even more, and some you really want something terrible to happen to.
The final episode gives an insight into the upcoming third series, with one character returning to school after some behavioural issues and trying to settle back in.
The series really shows the impact that decisions made by those in charge of a school, and how they react to issues, can have much wider impacts. No longer are we just thinking about how these things affected Hannah and made her decide to kill herself, but how they impact the mental health of those around her, how the authorities' inability to deal with those issues can snowball and how futile their attempts to react to crises are.
