Addie is having a last drink with her colleagues before making her way home to nurse her upcoming hangover. She has been made redundant and has nothing to get up for. On her way home, she hears a cry for help and goes to see what she can do. What happens next is beyond her wildest imaginings and sends her spiraling into the world of demons and fulcrums. What Leah did out of duty, Addie quickly comes to do out of love and affections for 'her' demons. Will she be able to balance out Jet and Locan before they kill each other and will them be able to kill the demon that is taking out the teams?
This is a very short story that is full of heat. It has an interesting part with the fulcrum and what it means to lose one but there is a part when Addie wonders if she has done her 'job' too well and isn't actually needed anymore. There are gaps in the world building and character back stories but it is only a short novella so you can't expect everything. There is some ménage action and a snippet of M/M that Addie watches whilst half asleep.
If you would like something to warm you up but not bog you down with details, then give this one a shot.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Into the Hurricane in Books
Jan 12, 2018
This was a very goodcoming of age novel that pitted two teenagers not only againsttheir own anger, guilt and depression but also a hurricane. These two strangers reluctantly at first team up to help each other and in the process find themselves again.
Connelly did a good job of setting the scene and showing us what was inside the characters minds. As a reader you got to see them evolve and grow. It created fairly complex characters. It was a quick and enjoyable read.

As its jennifer love hewitts birthday i still love this film after 20 years four teenagers accidently hit a man on the road and decided to dump the body the somewhere but 12 months later they start receiving messeges saying i know what u did last summer. Great young cast led by jennifer love hewitt and sarah michelle gellar the movie keeps you guessing as whos the fisherman. Any film that includes hush by kula shaker on the soundtrack is cool

Sometimes the trouble is that hearing a film is very good gives you high expectations, that's what happened with me this time and I have to say I was left disappointed. I felt this film was ok, I did like a lot of the humour but nothing really stood out for me and I wouldn't want to watch it again. I raved about it to my husband saying how it was supposed to be REALLY funny and REALLY good but he didn't think much of it either.
Erika (17789 KP) rated Twilight / Life and Death (Twilight, #1, 1.75) in Books
Jul 28, 2019 (Updated Aug 17, 2019)
When the 10th anniversary edition of Twilight was announced, I wasn't really interested. I was super into it before the movies, but reading it now, you see all the editing mistakes.
Though, when it was revealed a gender-bending version of Twilight was going to be included, I knew I had to read that clusterf***. It is so completely ridiculous, what were those names?? I loved every lame-o moment of it. Also, she did get to fix all of her wonky mistakes, which I appreciated.

Rocketman was good. Wasn't what I was expecting, but not in a bad way. If you're expecting a Bohemian Rhapsody type of movie, you should know it's not. It was shot more in the style of Across the Universe, which is one of my favorite musical movies. They did a great job of incorporating his songs to associate to different parts of his life and helping in telling his story. If you're a fan of Elton John and musicals, then I think you'll enjoy it.

Bast-a-saurus from the Past
Contains spoilers, click to show
Jurassic Park was the first film I ever loved, and sparked my love of cinema. So this film had a lot to live up to for me, and you know what, it was not bad. A bit heavy on the CGI in places, but did bring back the practical effects to create that element of fear you just can’t get from CG. The way the suspense is built up around the Indominus is very good, and brought back that same filling of tension where you find you are actually holding you breath and seat, just a little.
Characters and plot did suffer a little from that repetitive remake syndrome, see also Star Wars the Force Awakens, where the film tries so hard to recreate the love of the original, it just repeats everything.
Two kids, one young and cute, the other a been of a moody teen. A large escaped Dino, which should have been the main attraction. A knowledgeable-about-Dixon’s man and his almost-a-not-sexist-but-still-a-steriorypical-woman love interest out to save the kids, and themselves as things emulate. An overly complacent billionaire, ignorant to the potential danger.
Which film am I talking about....
That said, if what you want is a trip back to your youth and the thrill of seeing dinosaurs on screen, or just some resurrected reptile based mayhem, it’s a great film, and well worth a watch.

Necole (36 KP) rated The Good Widow in Books
Oct 14, 2018
What would you do if you learned your husband but he died in a state he wasn't supposed to be in? What if you learned he was having an affair and he died with his mistress in an accident?
This book explores those two questions!!!
Jacks learns of her husband's secret affair when she gets a phone from Maui police telling her there had been an automobile accident and her husband James as died, but he wasn't alone. Then all of a sudden Nick pops up at her door, telling her that Danni was his fiancé and she is the woman that Jacks' husband was having an affair with.
Jacks is now coping with this secret!!! How is she going to handle it? How far will she go to uncover the answers to so many questions she has?
Well Nick decides that he and Jacks should take a trip to Maui and find out for themselves what the two were doing there!! Jacks agrees to go and the story starts to unfold!! What will they discover? What other secrets did James, Danni, Jacks and Nick have? And what twist at the end will leave you going OMG?
Guess you will have to read the book to find out!!!
The book was well written … It goes from Jacks before her husbands death to Jacks after the death as well as Danni's perspective which made the book intriguing. However, it was slow at times and because it wasn't the typical thriller I am used to, it didn't keep my interest until about midway. I couldn't understand how this was a thriller until the very end. It felt more like a chic lit mystery up until that point which is why I gave it 3 stars.
