this book carries straight on from part one, part one end with chapter 9 this book starts with chapter 10. same fantastic characters from the first part. this story has lots of twists and turn, with lots more hot steamy scenes between the characters. the story continues in this book, the characters develop and more of there secrets come out.this story again is fast paced and will keep you reading long into the night. cant wait to get started on part three.

highly recommended

X2: X-Men United (2003)
X2: X-Men United (2003)
2003 | Action, Sci-Fi
Fans had to wait three years for the release of X2, and with it came a much better film in almost every way. By introducing new mutants including Nightcrawler, played fabulously by Alan Cumming, to proceedings, X2 was a triumph in the superhero genre that brought this untested genre into the mainstream. The opening scene in which Nightcrawler tries to assassinate the US President is one of the best action sequences put in a superhero film, with perfect pacing and great tension building.

I enjoyed all three stories in this book. I was with emotional though out the book. The first book is about learning to deal with death of a love one and learn to get though your marriage struggles of your marriage that you when though.

The second book talks about depression and a bit about marriage struggles. This book also talks about telling the truth and adoption. This is quite a story and about foster care as well.

The third story is about death as well and learning to trusting in good.

Amazing WWII story (2 more)
Full of suspense
Did not expect ending
Kristin Hannah has truly captured the chaotic and no-so-perfect sister relationship. Being the oldest of three girls I can relate to this love/hate relationship between the two sisters. How life can lead everyone in different roads but at the end family is the one thing that will always bring you back. No matter what happens family will disappoint, bring you down, and build you up, all at the same time. Cannot wait to read more books by this author.

This was a well written and created book but it was a little hard to read. The whole concept was amazing as were the characters. What made it hard was that it would jump through time and it wasn't exactly clear when that occured. The story covers three distinct times in the main characters life which is fine just often it would be one paragraph in one time then the next in another with no bridge. Perhaps, it was just me but this disrupted the flow of an otherwise very creative novel.

Broken this out a few times, good with larger groups
This is not the game for 4 people although it's possible to play that many. this game really shines when there are teams of people deciphering the clues together and arguing about it. I find 8 to be optimal, one person giving clues and three people to a side deciphering. 4 vs 4 is best. Anything less and it's just lest of an experience. I've never had more than 8 to try it out, but I'd hope its even more fun.

I would go nuts without this app
I have a kindle paperwhite, and I frequently access kindle cloud reader, but this is how I access books when I'm on my phone. Between the three (plus my audible app), there's very little time I can't find a way to sneak a few pages in.

The Amazon Kindle app rarely messes up, keeps all my books nice and tidy, and I like the options to read in different colors rather than just black on white. (I'm a huge fan of white on black.)

Fun game for super hero fans
Strike force is a fun game where the player collects Marvel heroes and villains and battles with teams of five characters to level up and gain new characters. It’s almost exactly the same game as Star Wars Heroes and Disney Heroes (all three from Disney). This game allows you to auto play a level you’ve already beat without losing a team member automatically to farm supplies without using some sort of ticket, which saves a lot of time.
  
I absolutely loved this book. The addition of the zombies/shades to this series makes it even better, making this book the perfect read for the month of October. There are enough mentions of the original characters from the series to make me happy, but not so much that you wouldn't understand the story without the first three (apart from the magical guilds). Unfortunately this is the first book in the heir series that leaves unresolved problems at the end, but at least we know there's another book coming.
