Book Rating

WHAAAA--IT CAN'T JUST END AT 96% AND LIKE THAT!! I was expecting it to carry on and for them to kick arse! Oh well, I'll just have to wait for book 3 in the series now wont I. *sigh*

I am still very much Team Roth. It was touch and go for a while but he won out in the battle of the two hotties. Sorry Zayne, but you just haven't got Roth's swagger and you may be sweet but Roth's just plain sexy.

I love this series!

Movie Rating

The second of the early-to-mid 90s TV adaptations of Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe series, based on the first published of those novels and starring Sean Bean in the title role.

And, already, the restrictions of a TV budget are beginning to show somewhat: The Battle of Talavera, for instance (which occurs at the end of both the novel and this made-for-TV movie) is a decidedly small-scale affair, for instance!

Still, for all that, this is still an enjoyable enough adaptation of the source material.

Farewell Aldebaran by Judy Henske & Jerry Yester

1969 | Psychedelic, Rock

Album Favorite

"Frank Zappa's glorious Straight label gave us Captain Beefheart, Alice Cooper, the GTO's and this absurdly eclectic 1969 album by sardonic folk-blues-comedy-rock-cabaret belter Judy Henske and hubby Jerry Yester of the New Christy Minstrels and the Modern Folk Quartet. No two tracks sound like the same band (or even singer), thanks to Henske's radical versatility and Yester playing ten different instruments; but unlike the Turtles' equally perversely wide-ranging The Turtles Present The Battle Of The Bands, no track sounds much like anyone else either.

Neneh Cherry recommended Daughter of Fortune in Books (curated)

"My daughter Tyson and I went to hear Allende talk in Stockholm at Kulturhuset, which was great. I love her so much, and often think about her telling us how in the first days of January every year she starts a new book. I adore the picture of her always dressed up to the nines in heels and makeup, walking out to her shed in back of her garden... like a warrior going into battle... and then giving like people me a chance to fly with those tales... “Daughter of Fortune” is a fantastic adventure."

Kristina (502 KP) rated Thoughtless (Thoughtless, #1) in Books

Dec 7, 2020

It's a battle of morals wrapped up in an emotional roller coaster. You clearly see the wrong - cheating on anyone is wrong - but you also see how wonderful both Kellan and Denny are. It's so easy to slip into Kiera's shoes and understand her dilemma, neither men deserve to have their heart broke, but it's also hard to watch her struggle to choose because you know it will only end in pain. There are even moments when you'll feel like, either way, you would be okay with her decision. Thoughtless is a wonderful, emotional mess!
