Raw, emotional, outstanding

From the second I started this book I couldn't put it down, what an emotional rollercoaster of a book. Following the story of a man's journey with mental illness and his romantic relationship with his first love.
I fell in love with the characters, I felt their pain, their joy and their love. I cried, alot, happiness and sadness. This book was written with so much insight and knowledge showing the reality of mental health issues and the impact on the individual their lives and their relationships. Danny baker is an author I admire and who can really create an intense and a read that you just can't put down.

Kristy has done it again... yet another fabulous book but one of my absolute favorite authors! Hard Beat, while part of the Driven series, was very different from the rest of the books she has written. While surely different, like all of her books, I was sucked in from page one. Totally different storyline, tough girl meets soft guy and under the most intense situation. The constant head-butting from these two was so much fun to read.. while Tanner & Beaux's connection is apparent right from the start. I LOVE that this was written from his POV and was of course beyond thrilled to have appearances of Rylee & Colton ;-) Amazing read, HIGHLY recommended!!!

Stylized 80s Italian horror at its finest

It's hard to believe Jennifer Connelly was ever that young!

Director Dario Argento's interesting tale of a young American girl with unusual powers who comes to attend a European boarding school is interesting and very unusual at the same time. After a series of murders, the girl has to decide if her abilities will help her or it's just time to get out.

The film's rock score is intense and backs up the ominous visuals and striking sets and lighting. Certainly campy by today's standards, it still is an entertaining watch for those who enjoy out-of-the-box storytelling.

Wow

FINALLY! A creature feature that is worthy of the genre! John Krasinski pulls out all the stops in this monster flick-directing AND acting in it. With hardly any lines spoken this movie has an intensity that is off the charts. There's really not much gore but the monsters may be a little scary for young kids. The cinematography, effects, acting and storyline are great. If you enjoy movies like Cloverfield, Allens and other intense monster movies you'll really enjoy this one. The kids in this did an outstanding job. It had a sad beginning but it only added to the dynamic of the family story. This one is really worth a watch!
