Yet Another Great Psychological Thriller

“An Anonymous Girl” is the newest book written by the authors of the prior bestseller “The Wife Between Us”, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. The book follows the stories of two people, a young woman named Jessica, a makeup artist, who enters a psychological study, and the prominent psychiatrist who runs the study, Dr Lydia Shields.
Written in a split narration format, the story unfolds from the perspectives of both characters simultaneously, allowing you to be immersed in the inner workings of both minds, pulling you into their world, and making you feel their emotions. It pulls you into the uncertainty and fear of a participant lured into a dangerous place unknowingly, and the rage, despair, and hope of a psychiatrist who has been betrayed and seeks retribution.
Guilt and fear can be powerful motivators, and “An Anonymous Girl” plays on that narrative quite well. A book full of twists and turns, it definitely lures you in. It is hard to put down, and leaves you wanting more. I would recommend picking it up and giving it a Good Read!
Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for providing me with an advanced readers copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.

After the Fire blew me away. I had heard good things before picking it up, but I wasn’t prepared to be so quickly invested in the characters and the story. This is not necessarily an easy read, it’s about a young girl who has grown up in a cult, after something bad has happened. Split between Before and After, the book looks at life in the cult leading up to the fire, and after, following Moonbeams recovery and the investigation. It was a powerful read, with some really deep character development. I couldn’t put it down.

Play levels based on six different Pixar film franchises. (2 more)
Two-player split-screen support makes this a great game to play with kids.
You can play with either physical or motion controls.
The hub world serves no purpose beyond level selection. (2 more)
Voice samples often become repetitive during gameplay.
Platforming feels a bit simplistic when using a controller.
Awkward movement controls always held the original game back, but now Rush plays great with a controller – and you can still use the Kinect if that's your thing.

I wanted so much more from this.
A lot of people I know loved this movie so I went in with really high expectations and for me I kind of just split this movie in two. On one side the plot was okay but I got pretty bored since it wasn't all that interesting. And then on the other hand you have the visuals which were brilliant they were both bright and vibrant and dark and creepy at the same time and while I can't tell you what most of the plot was I can say there were some amazing visuals.

Funny when I was a kid
The story of two best buds who like to make practical jokes and write a comic book about their principal which they named him captain underpants. The end up hypnotizing their principal into believing he is this rather dumb superhero. He can be un hypnotized by getting hit with water or put back in hypnotized for by one of the two boys snapping their fingers. The reason they want to keep him in this hypnotized form is so that they dont get split up at school cause together they just make trouble.

I was incredibly excited to read this sequel after being pleasantly surprised by Mask of Shadows. This could easily, and probably should, have been a trilogy. It feels like there was so much packed into this book that nothing really went into detail, even despite its 400 pages. While there was still a good bit of action it was mostly introspection and lamenting the past. The ending was a bit underwhelming and I really expected more. Overall, it is a solid, if a bit lackluster, sequel to a fantastic book.

Split (2017) is, ironically, a slyly connective work from M Night Shyamalan #Review
Powered by a terrific set of performances from James McAvoy, the film manages to explore the fascinating dramatic potential of dissociative identity disorder without feeling sensational or exploitative. McAvoy finds ways beyond mere costume changes to make each personality a character in their own right, both through vocal versatility and tremendous physicality, aided by a vulnerable but determined turn from Anya Taylor-Joy (“The Witch”) as Casey, one of the kidnapped girls who hides a dark secret of her own...
