Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated New to You by Samie Bower in Music
Jul 10, 2019
Samie Bower is a rising singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles, California. Not too long ago, he released a lovely alternative R&B tune, entitled, “Tell Me”, released via Mickey Shiloh’s BDRM Records.
“Forget who you thought was around. What you allow? Let me take you outta town. I know you down. I’ma go show you around. Tell me what you wanna do now. I’m in awe, I called out. Staying with you, me and you. I’ma go start on the car now. I’m with tunes and food now. I don’t stall, I pull out. So demanding, yet monotone. I’m all up in there.” – lyrics
‘Tell Me’ tells an interesting tale of a young guy who fears that his significant other will leave him one day for the same guy who she broke up with in order for them to be together.
Now, he’s having doubts, buggin’ out, paranoid, wondering if she will be around in a month’s time. Later, he admits that he doesn’t want her to do him like she did her ex-beau.
Even though they say they shouldn’t be together, neither one of them really wants to leave their problematic relationship.
‘Tell Me’ contains a relatable storyline, harmonious vocals, and melodic instrumentation flavored with PBR&B (R-neg-B Hipster R&B) elements.
“It’s an on-going situation about how the one you left your past for, is now worried you’re gonna leave them and go back to who you left originally. With the chorus saying ‘I don’t want that done to me’ is basically a translation of ‘yeah, you can do that to get to me. But you can’t do it towards me so you leave’. It’s a string of webs for a storyline, but a true situation people go through every day. Being in a good relationship, but then suddenly finding someone else, so you leave to be with the new person. But at the same time, as time goes on, you have second thoughts and think about going back to who you were with originally. Meanwhile, the new person isn’t too happy to see it take place. I see it happen so often, and honestly, it’s a disappointing thing to see, but then again, depends on your perspective.” – Samie Bower
‘Tell Me’ is featured on Samie Bower’s “New to You” album. Check it out below via Spotify.

Kidnapping in Alaska
Ben and the rest of the gang are in Alaska, training in secret after the events of the previous book. But they aren’t as secret as they thought they were when someone kidnaps Cyrus. Naturally, they spring into action to save him, but even if they do, what plot might they uncover?
I’ve been a fan of the series since the beginning, but it is beginning to feel a little too familiar. It would be nice if we could defeat some recurring characters and move on to some new stories. Additionally, there are a couple of lectures that threw me out of the book, even when I agreed with the characters. There’s also a relationship that bothered me on multiple levels. From a story standpoint, this relationship felt completely forced and the plot relied on it too much. It just wasn’t earned. On the other hand, I did enjoy spending time with the characters as always, and the action and laughs kept me turning pages. Here’s hoping that the next will take things in a fresh direction.

A book that wasn't for me I'm sorry to say.
Set in a future where climate change is not just something that is likely to happen but is all too real and where everyone is micro-chipped and controlled by the Government, this is the story about Mim trying to find out about her missing husband but feeling she has no other option than to go on the run with her children.
Sounds good doesn't it, well for me it just fell short on excitement. There was a lot of description, too much waffle and whilst the characters were well developed, I couldn't seem to get on with them. The ending was also a disappointment; it seemed to take a while to get there and then it was over with many questions still to be answered - maybe I missed something somewhere?
So whilst this wasn't for me, there are plenty of positive reviews out there so don't take my word for it as I always say, if we all liked the same things, the world would be a very boring place indeed.
My thanks go to HarperCollins UK / HarperFiction and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

Georgie Dent (100 KP) rated Lucifer in TV

Devilishly Good
Just a great TV series. This one had me gripped from the very first episode. Yes, he is the devil, but not the devil we have always been taught about. This series will take you on highs and lows, following his own suffering and selflessness. Its hard not to fall in love with lucifer. 100% must watch programme 👏👏👏.

Breath of fresh air
This app has helped motivate me to read a lot more via the 'reading challenge' feature which I like to take part in each year and compete with my previous personal reading goals. I am also reminded to read by the optional push notification/emails which I have selected. Love that you can select your edition to keep track of your reading progress in a way that's personal to you and create and keep lists catered to your reading taste. I like to discover new books on there along with keeping track of what I've read before and what I'm currently making my way through. Very good also to use as a wishlist for others to know which books to purchase for you as a gift. Would highly recommend to readers and non-readers alike, who knows, something might take your fancy or your competetive streak may take over.

I thought this movie was cute and it makes a refreshing change from all the usual sex and violence that we see nowadays. It did take make me reminisce about old fashioned films with all the dancing and singing however I did fast forward through some scenes that seemed to go on forever! I thought Stone's singing was weak but like Russell Crowe in Les Mis sometimes it makes the characters more personable.

Jan 18, 2018
I never really bought into the whole self-help genre, but this book did wonders for me. A shorter novel, this book stays focused and on task the entire time. This book really makes you stop and take a look at yourself and decide what you need to change. You are the only one who can help yourself, though. No one is going to do it for you. This book was a pleasant surprise.
ashezbookz (32 KP) rated Daughter of the Siren Queen: Daughter of the Pirate King Book 2 in Books
Jul 5, 2018
Definitely 100% leaps and bounds better than Pirate King - however, there were a bunch of spelling/grammar errors that just drove me insane. The story overall was amazing - it was a unique take on a siren - I have never read something like that before. There was a lot of mayhem and it was very exciting, though a lot of it was predictable it was still entertaining. Definitely a nice way to finish the series.
