The Darkest Star (Origin, #1)
10
10.0 (1 Ratings)
Book Rating
A new book in the ever magnificent Lux universe. The Darkest Star brings new light to the world while standing on its own as a magnificent book. The plot focuses on both tragic love but equally on just what are Luxon and are they truly the most dangerous aliens out there.
Evie and Luc bring banter, tension, and laughs as they spend more time together and learn exactly who they could be together.
I absolutely adore this book and am excited that it can be read as a standalone and not as a continuation of the orignial series. If you haven't read Lux it is ok, you will still enjoy this book!

The Job (Fox and O'Hare, #3)

8.0 (2 Ratings)
Book Rating
When someone starts framing Nick Fox for an international crime spree, FBI agent Kate O’Hare has to jump in to find the true villain. But answers just lead them to a con that is the most dangerous of their partnership.

As always, this book is fast paced and fun with humor to keep things light and danger to keep the pages turning. The characters are getting better, but they could still be stronger. Still, I had so much fun reading this book.

NOTE: I was sent an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Jurassic Park (1993)
Jurassic Park (1993)
1993 | Adventure, Sci-Fi
Best movie ever!
Okay seriously this is the greatest movie of all time and if you disagree with me you're wrong. Sam Neil? Yep! Laura Dern? Yep! Jeff Goldblum? Yep! I could go on. Oh yeah, and it has dinosaurs and everything goes wrong because well obviously and they had to find a way out of that park to escape all of the dangerous dinosaurs that would kill them. Maybe it wasn't the best idea bringing back the dinosaurs but it sure does make for a great movie, let's leave it that way scientists on the big screen. “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Book Rating
Kelley Armstrong is a cruel, evil woman.

This Fallen Prey takes you on a rollercoaster as Casey tells you all about the day the Council drops a dangerous serial killer into Rockton without any advance warning.

What you get from that point on is a crazy edge of the seat ride as you try and figure out whether he's really what the council have claimed, or if there's something deeper and more complex going on. With betrayals and deaths and twists that just keep you turning the pages, the third book of the Casey Duncan series does not disappoint.

It does leave us with a minor cliffhanger.. and I absolutely cannot wait for the next book!

The best thing you never watched
Banshee was cancelled because no one watched it. Why did no one watch it? I can't say, those that did watch it raved about it. Maybe it was ahead of its time, pre Netflix shows required well known faces, while Banshee recruited actors who were unknown but fit the character.

It was sexy, violent, dangerous and cool. Criminals who are heroes, a bank robber who replaces the ID of a cop who was murdered so becomes the towns police while at the same time trying to hide from his criminal past which wants to kill him. Brilliant stuff. Go watch it now.

It was through word of mouth that it came to my attention and I have rarely heard anyone having negatives to say about it so that seems to fit with your review. It had the right mix of everything that makes a show work. Timing has a lot to answer for in all the arts.

Family guy was cancelled before word of mouth brought it back. Maybe we can do the same here
