Breathtaking Scenery
Fantastic Drama/Thriller!
Keeping Faith is a superb TV show with fantastic plots and wonderful actors. Each weeks' episode leaves you begging for the next one. Eve Myles, who plays Faith, was outstanding and you could really relate to her. I also particularly enjoyed the scenes including Hannah Daniel as Cerys Jones (junior associate at the family's law firm, Howells) who was very good. The show is set in Wales where the scenery manages to be both bleak but breathtaking, at the same time.
I loved watching Keeping Faith as it was gripping and kept me hooked all the way through. So many questions unanswered and so much more drama to come. Fantastic!
The closing song of Keeping Faith's first episode which melts me every time was written and sung by Grammy award-winning songwriter Amy Wadge.
This is a beautiful, wonderful drama and I'm ecstatic to hear that there will be a Series 2.

TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated The Bishop's Daughter: A Sweet Amish Romance in Books
Feb 24, 2021
A unique look into the life of the Amish.
The lifestyle and simplicity of the Amish has gained vast popularity in recent years and so many books are being written about it. Its getting kinda repetitive. This one is a very unique look at the trouble the Amish face when they are given the choice of becoming english or marrying and staying in the Amish Faith. This is the first Amish book I have read that the author does not completely agree with all the rules and orders of the Amish. It caused me to really think about the Amish faith and if I personally agreed with the way the Amish faith is portrayed.
I would highly recommend this book if for no other reason than that the author really makes you think.
I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback, the opinions expressed within are my own.

Merissa (12950 KP) rated LICKED: A Warrior Hearts Academy Prequel in Books
May 15, 2025
LICKED is the prequel novella to the three trilogies in the Warrior Hearts Academy series.
It tells the story of Faith, Alistair, Kenji, and Kalen and how they realise they are mates. Faith is human (apparently), Kenji and Kalen are twin Morphs, and Alistair is a dragon. Told from multiple perspectives, I only got them mixed up when it was the twins, even though they have different personalities. For the life of me, I couldn't remember which one had blue-green eyes and which one had a scar! So unless they talked about whether they were grumpy or sunny, I always got lost with which one was talking.
Full of action and spicy dreams, we follow Faith and the others as their stories link together. I loved how Faith was not a weepy wallflower and used her rage to help others. I also loved that it wasn't just a simple "I'm telling you this is what you are" and then she immediately knows all she needs to.
A great novella that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.

Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated The Reaping (2007) in Movies

Spooky Scary Reaps
The Reaping- is a underrated horror jem, that not alot of people talk about.
The plot: Katherine Morrissey (Hilary Swank), a former Christian missionary, lost her faith after the tragic deaths of her family. Now she applies her expertise to debunking religious phenomena. When a series of biblical plagues overrun a small town, Katherine arrives to prove that a supernatural force is not behind the occurrences, but soon finds that science cannot explain what is happening. Instead, she must regain her faith to combat the evil that waits in a Louisiana swamp.
It might be bad movie from other critics, but to me its a underrated horror jem.
