Black Snake Moan (2007)
Black Snake Moan (2007)
2007 | Drama
Quite a strange tale. This film brings together a man just split from his cheating wife who is a farmer and ex-musician and a young white girl who seems to be a bit of a nymphomaniac! It's a good film about a very unusual friendship that can restore the both of them on the right path for the future.
  
I won a copy through a Goodreads giveaway. I read the synopsis and thought I would enjoy it. while it was definitely and adventure and gave you good feelings. the message that true friendship is worth it and when you work together you can accomplish anything is truly wonderful for younger readers. it just didn't seem complete and some parts jumbled for me.

I could watch this movie again and again. Rami Malek does a fantastic job as Freddy. I was and still am a big fan of queen, I feel it portrayed not only Freddy for who he really was but the n and as a whole and the love and friendship they all shared.

"Summer Sisters may just be the perfect summer read of all time. The queen, Judy Blume, writes a juicy story of friendship. My sister and I read this and then passed it on to many friends, the sisterhood of the traveling book. PS: My sister (ironically!) told me there is rumor of the book being made into a TV series."

"I don’t respond well to being told what to do, so I slept on this for like six months and when I finally read it the emotions were so all-encompassing that I wept like a baby. Toxic female friendship? Check. Chronic illness? Check. Unbreakable pattern with unavailable man? CHECK! And written with a precision rarely credited to young female authors."

More than Comics ( Chasing the Dream 2)
By Elizabeth Briggs
⭐️⭐️⭐️

I've been in love with Tara long before I became a famous rock star. We talk every day. We know everything about each other. But we've never met in person.

Until now.

Four days at Comic-Con together might change everything between us. She can never know how I feel about her. I won't ruin our friendship. I can't.

But I can't resist her either. And after one hot, unforgettable night together she sees me as more than her best friend too.

Can our online relationship turn into a real life romance? Or will it destroy our friendship forever?

This was sweet, loving the Comic-Con fun mixed in too pretty easy going read. Not much more I can really say.

This was an enjoyable book. The storyline was cute and easy to follow. The characters were developed. Bethany as the narrator lends a quirky and awkward take on the story. The whole idea of love finding you no matter how hard you try to avoid it is always a good one. Especially when the relationship begins as a friendship. Good showing for a first book by Bryant.

I have been in such a reading slump and I needed a book with a sure HEA. Kasie West never disappoints in that regard. While I haven't liked a few of her last books I really enjoyed this one.
It was a one sitting read full of cute moments and friendship. Add in a romance and a movie script I wouldn't mind seeing in theatres.

Kept hidden away from everyone and .are to think he's really ill this story tells how you can do anything you set your mind too. It's great how it features friendship so well and not just humans. And the story is so well thought off bout discovering secrets. Is such a fantastic book and definitely a classic
