Neon's Nerd Nexus (360 KP) created a post

Watched #Bronson again recently. As a huge #NWR #fan you can 100% see a lot of his director traits and early work in it too (especially #Pusher) but there's also such an impeccable #ClockworkOrange esc aura/#influence that it makes it a #film so unlike any of his others that at times you'd be mistaken in thinking it was directed by a #British director. Such a #fascinating film not only as a character #study of Bronson himself but as a progression piece for Refn as a #director too.

Evil Superman
This had a good premise, what if a person from another world arrived here with superpowers... But was evil. There are quite a few nods and scenes that will remind you of Superman. Clearly the inspiration for this film. It's definitely something original to have a horror like this. It is quite gory in places, fairly creepy but not scary. You'll find it fun if you fancy a horror film with a twist. Although it still left quite a lot of ideas to be explored.
  
Read this as part of the PPA volume one anthology

I loved it. A well written and thought out story. I don't like to give out spoilers and so I won't, but I will say that it was a fantastic read.
I enjoyed the premise of this story a lot. Woman in danger from paras, calls in paras to help. Lots of past characters are in this too in varying degrees. Couldn't put it down.

Definitely suggest this to anyone who loves steamy romance.
Go... Buy... Read. You won't regret it

A couple of these I have read for the authors before but a lot of these were new reads for me. I loved all these authors. They are amazing writers, the stories were so much fun to read. I loved the problems that they had.. the love that was found.. and of course all the paranormal beings in the stories. Totally amazing box set and I am so glad I got this from the authors for a read/review. I will recommend this set to all my friends

This was an amazing emotional rollercoaster. The beginning started as a "wow.. yum" and then turned sad and I was like awww... From there I felt for O and for Lena. This is definitely a sexual story so if you aren't into f/f with lots of sex don't bother to read this story. I really enjoyed it though. The complicity of the characters, the sadeness, the love, the sex, all of it was wonderful. The writing was superb and had a lot of action and intrigue involved in it.

I had no clue what this story was about.. I was asked to review it.. and I'm really glad that I did because this was very interesting and I enjoyed it a lot. This was a complex and confusing at times.. but then if i waited for like 10 mins and continue reading.. and it all clicked together haha.. There are troubled souls... differences of opinions when it came to religions.. and so many emotions all run together. I really am glad i got to review this one..
  
So this was really interesting and intriquing. I did get lost a couple of times because I should have read the first two before this one but overall I was able to figure out what characters were who and why. It was a really good read... I am not a big f/f fan to be honest but it was tastefully done and didn't bother me much. There was a lot of mystery involved.. the characters were easy going and funn to read and i am glad i got to review it

A little gross, but a lot of fun
I read this book during a camping trip in which I constantly bugged my family by reading lines aloud to them. If you're looking for a fun, non-fiction book to read, this is a great choice. While it does go into some super gross details (it's about dead bodies), I learned so much. The chapter on how bodies are prepared for funerals was especially interesting to me.

Death from above
A rich woman (hedren) who is really in love with her beau (taylor) follows him to a remote town in California where out of no where all kinds of birds from small to large begin to attack and reek havoc on the towns people.

Out of the mind of Hitchcock comes one of his more scarier tales. From what I have read that after the first screening of the movie a lot of the viewers screamed when a flock of birds happened to fly over them
