God's Book of Proverbs is the book of Proverbs arranged topically all in one little book which allows the reader quick access to look up and apply the knowledge and insights of the scripture.

There is also an article "Connecting Wisdom to Jesus" by Trevin Wax explaining how Jesus is the source where our wisdom comes from. The reader will also find an article on how to read the Proverbs.

The scriptures in God's Book of Proverbs is in the Christian Standard text (CSB); which is easy to read and understandable, and stays as literal as possible to the Bible's original meaning. This is my preferred translation.

This book would be very useful for those sharing God's word, for writing messages, for Bible study and personal reference. Small and light enough to carry with you where ever you go.

Edgar Wright's high-energy jukebox thriller may be your last chance to see Kevin Spacey in a new movie. Brilliant young music-loving hearing-impaired getaway driver ends up in hock to criminal mastermind; must decide whether to run for it with his lovely new girlfriend or carry out one last job with some rather suspect associates.

Slightly retro crime thriller with a central gimmick - action sequences are frequently choreographed to the soundtrack - that isn't quite as innovative as it thinks it is. As technically proficient as you would expect from Wright; what's unusual is that the film has a degree of heart you wouldn't expect, not to mention an impressively twisty-turny plotline - just who the main bad guy will turn out to be is not at all clear until quite late on. Good performances all round, too.

Florida diver and police officer Sloan is thrown headlong into a messy case when she emerges from the water to find a the dead body of someone she knew. Alongside disgraced officer Solar, Sloan must learn who to trust, keep herself and her family safe and solve this case.

I struggled when deciding the rating as I have rather mixed views. I struggled to motivate myself to carry on reading after I had put the book down, and then when I was reading it struggled to put it down! The novel itself is well written, however I find that some of the decisions the characters made were, maybe unrealistic or definitely stupid. The main character is very likeable, but over the top. It was overall an enjoyable read, but ended abruptly after a long build up.

Another one I've picked up from various bookstagrams and actually I think this one nearly lives up to the hype. The story is good and I really want to learn more about Erilea, I have already started the second book to carry on the story.

Celeana is a good character and so great to have such a kick ass female protagonist. I think some of her back story needs to be uncovered and quickly, its quite frustrating that this hasn't been explored already. I also find she sometimes goes through emotions very quickly.

I love the dynamics between characters, although I find some of the writing very obvious (perhaps due to YA genre).

I didn't see some of the events coming and I am really excited for the next book.
