Irene M (130 KP) rated Bless This Mother-Effing Home: Sweet Stiches for Snarky Bitches in Books

Dec 7, 2018

I received an ARC from Netgalley for review.

As someone who can stitch I found these entertaining and would be really easy to replicate in full cross-stitch, but this book has an added bonus for those who don't.

Reading the description ... "Perforated pages allow for readers to hang up or share favorite entries, spreading the cross stitched love."

So even those who can't stitch can pop out a page, frame it, and stick it up on the wall if they want to as from a short distance most people won't see the difference. A very clever idea.

Herc is the story of Hercules told by the people who knew him. I really enjoyed this style of storytelling, it seemed more personal, and unlike the traditional myths, we could see how Hercules actions impacted on those around him, and those he loved.

This isn’t a story for the faint-hearted. It’s graphic both in violence (he was a violent man) and sex (who liked sex). Also, it would probably help if you knew the story of Hercules before starting this. It can dart around a bit from person to person.

Recommended for the Greek mythology fans 🙋🏼‍♀️

Movie Favorite

"Wong Kar-Wai is one of my favorite directors from Asia. I’m a natural romantic. I feel like his movies — slow motion, the momentum of people, even a clock running — are non-traditional filmmaking. Normal movies [have scenes set up] like, I talk to you; you talk to me. Those kinds of movies are boring to me, but his films are advanced. He’s also extremely private and personal. His stories are all about innocent love, sort of like teenage love. How people need; how you love. They’re very, very romantic. When I talk about it, I feel this slow motion romance, high heels, the mystery of women, sexy, walking by. I recognize things in my soul that are unspoken; a lot of those longings, and unfulfilled romances, and dreams within [Wong Kar-Wai’s] films — they make me feel that."

Yes, people DO still play Pokemon Go! Lots of people! Check out any monthly community day, and you'll be surrounded by other Pokemon trainers, loving the game just as much as you will. It's an easy, fun game to play. The games tasks and Pokemon get updated often enough to keep you interested. There have been some issues that people have complained about after the last major update, but I haven't had them, and hopefully for those that have, they'll get updated and fixed soon. Nothing terrible, just a little annoying for this short bit of time. The game, itself, is great fun. Lots of Pokemon around to catch, and lots of goals and tasks to achieve. It's a really fun app!
