this book has fab characters, the story is fast paced with lots of steamy scenes and suspense. this book will have you reading long into the night. this book was definitely hard to put down. this story has lots of twist and turn, corporate setting and a family at war, brought together brings you a page turner of a book. both the main characters have dark pasts that they have to get over to embrace each other. this book has a cliff hanger ending, i was left wanting the next book as soon as possible.

highly recommended

this book is a fab ending to the set, this book brings together all the emotions from the first to books and answers all the questions. This book has the same amazing characters. You will definitely need to read the other two books to appreciate this book. This is definitely a hot and steamy read to warm you up on these dark and cold nights. I loved this series on a whole and would definitely read them again. I cant wait for more from this amazing author in the future.

Highly recommended
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

A Good Day To Die Hard (2013)
A Good Day To Die Hard (2013)
2013 | Action
Yet another cobblers sequel to the 80s action classic, as Bruce Willis goes to Russia after his grown-up son is thrown in the clink for murdering someone. This turns out to be part of a uproariously stupid plot featuring all the usual goons in ski-masks and some sort of plan to carry out a heist on Chernobyl (mmm, tasteful).

Not just a bad movie, but one which is only barely functional as a narrative - the various cartoony action set-pieces are competently slapped together, but the connective tissue of characterisation, plot exposition, and relationships is just not there. No wit, no subtext, no point.

The Secret Life Of Pets 2 (2019) is like three Saturday morning cartoons mashed into one.
Picture the scene: Illumination writing room, circa 2017.

Plans are well underway for the TV spinoff of “The Secret Life Of Pets” and the team have broken down around a dozen shorts to fill up the schedules when suddenly the word comes down that the studio have decided they want a theatrical sequel instead. Writer 1: Okay, shall we start from scratch?

Writer 2: *shrugs* Nah, it’s nearly lunch, let’s just jam the ideas together until we hit the magic 90-minute mark.

Writer 1: Done. Let’s get lunch.

The tutorial is so long and complicated that by the end I'd already forgot the beginning (0 more)
Complicated as
The game is very very complicated and takes alot of restarts to get any where but once you get going properly and get some citizens then it gets EVEN MORE complicated lol. The game is long winded yes and complicated definitely but every little milestone is that much more gratifying. The graphics are good for the size of the game and i do enjoy playing it but only for so long before it becomes repetitive

Call me, Master Chief!
Cadet Thomas Lasky and fellow students train at Corbulo military academy. Lasky is unsure of his path and suffering from emotional conflict causing problems with his fellow cadets. One night, the academy is heavily attacked buy alien insurrectionists causing a Galactic civil war.
This is where the cadets must lay down all issues with eachother and work together if their going to survive the night.
With surprise help from a mysterious ally, a legendary armoured super-soldier known as the Master Chief.

This movie by Microsoft studios & 343 industries is definitive proof that a multi billion dollar production isn't what make a great sci fi, action movie.
  
I enjoyed the older guy/younger girl characters.. I enjoyed the writing and the storyline. There was a lot of sexyness in this story. There was a lot of happiness and sadness. The characters were relatable and made me smile. For the most part it was a very light read. It had a bit of angst but not much so it was a nice break from the more hardcore stories. It wasn't all sex which was also nice. I enjoyed the sex along with the romance. I love how they grow together even though he is older but he grows with her. It was wonderful

The Lies are Pretty Big..
At the recommendation of a friend, I dug into this book right away. I really enjoyed the characters and I kept waiting for the surprise that was promised. Having read some of this author's other books, it did not take me long to figure out how the characters came together. I really enjoyed the story and would recommend this to anyone who wanted to get swept away in the story based on a PTA like group. Their original purpose was to improve the school, but the mothers become mafia-like in their power moves

This was a verry good movie special effects wise .i liked the movie but seemed like the script and the actors wernt on the same page.this movie feels like it was thrown together after they figured out the special effects.over all i did like it.but the actors all seem like there was no actual feelings allowed .this movie lacked the sadness and drama it should have had .even the bad guy didnt protray much feeling .thats where this went wrong except for rhiannas charcter there was little to no feelings at all.verry dead pan .maybe im wrong but somethings off on the conection.
