this is the first book by this author that I've read and I'm hoping it wont be my last. this book is a fast paced, action packed read that will have you hooked from the first page and leave you wanting more. the characters are fab and you will end up falling in love with them. this book definitely has a swoon worthy hero that you just cant get enough of. this is a fantastic story from a fantastic author. i cant wait to read more from this author in the future.

highly recommended

This is the first book by this author that I've read and what a good read. This is the first book in this series and can be read as a stand alone read. The attraction between the characters is perfectly written. The added dark secret in the plot just adds to the story. The love story between the characters feels real and honest. I'm looking forward to reading the other books in this series. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended

I didn't think things could get any better after the first book but I have to say that this one is even better than the first one, I was very happily surprised I must say. It was more intense, it was more gruesome and the character development was just brilliant. I love the developing relationship between the two main characters, their relationship is very realistic and troublesome which keeps things very interesting. I am very much looking forward to the next one in the series as I think (after reading this one) it's going to get even better! 5 stars from me!

Another great series
Well I've managed to whizz through both series of Fleabag in no time. Again only 6 episodes long around 25 minutes long each. So great when you have a short amount of time to fit something in.
Set around a year after the events of the 1st series with all the same characters again. It's just as funny as the first series if not quite as good, but there is not much in it. If you loved the first series, who doesn't? Then you'll love the humour in this just as much.

First, can I just say that I LOVE this cover? I am honestly not even sure why as pink is not my color. But it pulled me in and made me want to read the book (great job to whoever designed it!). This is my first time reading a book by Betsy St. Amant and it will probably not be the last.

Based on the description I was expecting something a little romance, some yummy desserts, and to learn to see something in the unexpected. I did all of that, just not the way I expected to
  
Independence Day (1996)
Independence Day (1996)

"I hate to say it, but it’s one that I starred in — is Independence Day. I was so happy about that film, because, first of all, it grossed close to $1 billion worldwide back in the day, and it really was a great film. To see Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum — to see an African-American and a Jewish guy save the world — I just love that. It was so cool. And the fact that I was a stripper that got to save the First Lady. It just had so many elements of people that normally don’t become people’s heroes save the world."

Book Favorite

"May I cheat and add "The Odyssey" and count them as one? I had an invaluable and inspiring high school teacher, Robert Cooley, who introduced me to both “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey” during my senior year. It was my first experience with the power of drama and poetry combined. Little did I know that I would spend the rest of my life (especially professionally) searching for experiences that would be as satisfying. The fact that I fell in love for the first time with the guy sitting next to me didn’t hurt my journey through those books either."

Third movie this week and the longest movie I've seen this year so far run time of over 3 hours long. Anyway the film its basically a love letter to 1920s hollywood and the beginnings of talkies actors getting used to speaking for the first time in between the partying which takes up the first half hour of the this movie is about Brad Pitts and margot robbies characters and there up and downs in Hollywood and their friendship with Manuel played by Diego calva overall my favourite movie of the year so far
