Aug 1, 2017

Mumford re-ignited the folky genre with this album, bringing us their folky twist. (2 more)

Passionate, well written and excellently performed tracks.

I think, for me, this is still their first and best album.

Mumford's debut album - a plethora of folky tunes.

Kudos

Stark contrast to Nevermind. Totally different production, producing a far more corrosive, yet engaging sound. (1 more)

Final Nirvana album, but well recognised as being very personal to the band. There are some great songs here, which all add to the Nirvana legacy.

I honestly didn't understand the hype of this book. It's difficult to read, sentence structure is odd and just doesn't flow well. That and Mr Grey would have been arrested in real life for kidnapping and possible mental and physical abuse.

Jessica Cashen (1 KP) rated Getting Off: One Woman's Journey Through Sex and Porn Addiction in Books

May 16, 2018

This is a memoir about a woman's addiction to porn and sex. It is well written, raw, and honest. I commend her for talking about something viewed as taboo. If she writes anything else I would be interested in reading it.

Well written, very informative and knowledgeable about how to survive with a chronic illness. I will definitely be using some of the information I found out. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

Good read. Well written, with a good plot and characters. I enjoyed this book, but am confused if there will be a book 3 or not.... I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

Feb 13, 2019

Another amazing episode of the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Although this isn't a direct story relating to one of the brothers themselves, I found the characters just as enticing and the story planned well. A must read for any Ward fan!
