MGS5 is a masterpiece. It's hard to imagine another AAA game that will be allowed a five-year development cycle, yet feel so completely the work of one man. A game where you can visit a prisoner's cell and hear Joy Division

The action was exciting and fight scenes were intense.
Too many characters at one time and really not enough time to explore their backstories or give them equal screen time. (0 more)
Good movie
The movie was good and I did really enjoy it. It seemed to be missing something and I’m not sure what. I don’t know if something got lost with a different director taking over to finish it up when the original director had to leave for family reasons. But there just wasnt an element there that could have been. There wasn’t enough character building before they all are together and fighting Steppenwolf.

3.75/ 5 Warning! Trigger book!.

I DNF'd this book and no not because it was at all bad. It hit many spots that were still sensitive to me and it was just the intensity of it that made me put it down. The only reason this didn't get a full four stars was because i didn't feel as thought the main characters had much of a beginning at all, He had barley said anything to her and then they were making out. I kind of wished they went a little more into the relationship as a whole, not only explained bits and pieces through thought. But still a very intense book.

The score enhancing the tension
The dog fight aerial battles
A great film on a grand scale
A very well made film as you would expect from a great director. I liked the way the film cut from what was happening on the beach, sea and in the skies above. The dog fights with just the sound of the Spitfire engines and a hail of bullets was exciting. The score really stood out out as well heightening the sense of drama and building tension at key times. Complete with a good cast make this an intense experience of the story of Dunkirk.

fantastic read
Omg, this book is just amazing, I was up late reading it, just couldn't put it down. This book is filled up with swoon worthy moments, sex, hot and steamy scenes, banter and amazing characters. The characters have very intense hot and steamy chemistry between them as well as a strong connection. This is a sports college romance story with so much more added. This book has it all, fantastic characters, amazing story and lots of chemistry. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.



Highly recommended read

This is the third book in this series by this author. This is such an intense story which will keep you hooked till the very end. I absolutely loved the story, it was sweet but also had the BDSM aspect to it. This author definitely knows how to mix the sweet with the raunchy in this story. This book can be read as a stand alone read or as part of the series. I really enjoyed the characters they were really well developed. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Love the One You're With

Story revolves around Ellen -- recently married, her life turns somewhat upside down when her old flame, Leo (he of an "intense" past love) returns to her life. Keeping Leo a secret from her husband Andy (he of a "pleasant, stable" love), Ellen finds herself torn between the two and questioning the state of her marriage. Adding to her troubles is the fact that Ellen's best friend, Margot, is Andy's sister (and was not one bit fond of Leo).

Many books have been written on the "old boyfriend returns" subject and while Giffin's is nothing outstanding, she handles the topic convincingly, giving Ellen surprising depth. A quick and rather enjoyable read.

Sewing Knits from Fit to Finish: Proven Methods for Conventional Machine and Serger by Linda Lee is a great guide for anyone learning to sew. The book has high-quality paper with lots of colorful photographs and clear illustrations.

This book is not for beginners. the descriptions and directions are very thorough, they are still complex and intense. The author describes the different kinds of knit fabrics as well as outlines the best way to create buttonholes, hems, seams, etc to avoid puckering or stretching.

I received an ARC copy from Quarto Publishing Group - Creative Publishing International and Creative Publishing international via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
