Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Yield the Night (Steel & Stone, #3) in Books

Jan 6, 2021

I do like this series--I loved the first two--this one didn't grab me as much though. I love Ash and Piper together and I'm still very intrigued about what's going to happen with them after what she's just done.

Off to but book 4.

"Ruth Gordon was so much more than Garson Kanin‘s beard. With music by Cat Stevens… as a motorcycle cop… this movie satisfies on so many levels. Death and sex have never been so beautifully linked together. This film is Love Story for the rest of us."

"Emma Straub and I went to high school together and there must've been something in the water! This is a great, true to life New York story taking the reader from college to midlife crisis. Filled with real life relationship issues — family, romance, humor! A great read!"

"This movie makes me think of my French producer, Claire. We watched it as reference for a script we were working on together. It’s a brutal film to be sure, but I only have warm associations attached to it now: days of wine, writing, and more wine."

"Ozu in stunning color and black and white. One of the many great Criterion packages that offer two films together for the viewer to admire. The theatrical aspects of this set appealed to me, but I was ultimately won over by the heartbreaking simplicity of Ozu’s aesthetic."

This novel has vivid characters and a carefully structured mechanic of two first-person accounts together with a connection between the two, that builds like a mystery novel. Read my review here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/04/14/the-secret-of-a-100-year-old-woman/
