Complex classic film noir style
This is a classic. Most people will probably know the Humphrey Bogart big screen version but Raymond Chandler was clearly the original. Gritty, dark and twisted - unusual for its time - he broke boundaries with some of the themes described. As brilliant as it is written, the plot at times gets too complicated and if you're not concentrating, you'll end up missing important clues.

<i>Stolen</i> was violent, bloody, twisted, and I loved it! Elena is a great character and the book is written with an easy style and some dry humor thrown in for good measure. Sure, it was slow-starting and there were some parts that were drawn out too long, but I enjoyed the ride when it picked up. I can't wait to get to Kelley Armstrong's other books.

This book is simply amazing. J.R. Ward really knows how to create a series with characters that you will love. Zsadist is by far one of my favorite characters. His brokenness is beautiful in his on twisted way.

I am glad that I reread this book. It really is so beautiful and heart wrenching. I cried, I laughed, and I wanted to scream. Do yourself a favor and read this series.

Stick with it
Don't give up after a few episodes, it does get better. The show is slow to start and tb. Story takes a long time to develop, but it an easy watch and good fun in places. Very strange, twisted religion, Sci-fi type show, with some good laughs, worth watching Joseph gilgun who is brilliant throughout

Be prepared for nudity & leprechauns
Really enjoyed the first season. I binge watched which probably did me a favour, as I found the storyline all over the place, jumping between characters. Great cast of actors, really well scripted. Very graphic in places, sexually, violently, coarse language. Be prepared to have your mind twisted, as I am still not sure who the good guys are...

I mean I have to agree, Pablo Schreiber makes anything worth binge watching. But I do think this show is awesome anyway, it fufills my mythology geekiness.🤓

The Dead Spot: stories of Lost Girls
By Angela Sylvaine
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A collection of short stories

This was a fun read. These short stories all contained a lost girl element and each one was unique. From dealing with zombees to twisted parents. Really good read.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Outside and Inside
Cube Zero- is good movie, better than the second one, the second one is good and twisted but you have to watch it multiplte times to fully understand. This one and the first one you probley only have to watch it once to fully understand it, but overall this trilogy is twisted and insane. So the multiplte viewings is a must, cause its soo good.

The Plot: A monitor (Zachary Bennett) decides to help a captive (Stephanie Moore) escape from a structure in which trapped occupants meet ghastly deaths.

While the first two films take place almost entirely within the maze, Cube Zero is set in both the interior and exterior of the cube. The film also reverts to the industrial-designed, colored rooms of the first film, but with a refreshed and redesigned set.

Its a good movie and overall a great trilogy and overall a good horror franchsie. If you havent seen this franchise, i highly reccordmend it.
