This is the second book in this series by this author. This story is full of angst, action, drama and hot steamy scenes. fantastic characters, you will fall in love with as you read. I was hooked from the first page. This is a gritty romance read you will be reading long into the night. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

So.. I got this book in a box set and didn't realize it was the 3rd in the series. That is the only reason it got 4 instead of 5 because certain parts I was confused on. However, overall I was able to follow it and really enjoyed this book. I do want to read the others as well. I love witches if written right and this author definitely got it right. Very good story and very good read.

Another alternative fairytale story with the characters we know and love at war with each other. This time, a reluctant Jack is trying to help a strang girl from our world find and rescue her grandmother. The book moved quickly and the ending left me anxious to get my hands on the sequel. Highly recommended.

This was a good YA fantasy, especially for younger teens. There's no bad language or sex, and the teens acted very much like teens. A sweet love story, a bit of mystery, and another world all combine to make this a fun listen!
Angel Clark did a great job with the female teens voices, inflections and all.

While it does take multiple viewings to fully grasp the story, it's an incredible film full of abrupt changes in every way imaginable. I love how characters and events are brought full circle and the ending is so perfectly confusing. There is a good chance you won't like your first viewing, and honestly, I'd call that normal.

I couldn't wait to see this after watching the trailer in 3D on an imax screen! It looked amazing and seemed to take animation up to a new level and the 3D looked amazing and so detailed!! Unfortunately I only got to see the film on DVD and missed the 3D excitement. The story has been done several times before, but it's still enjoyable. One kids will surely love, try to catch it in 3D if you can!!
Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated Seven Viking Romances in Books

This is very easy to read, unlike a lot of translated classics. I highly recommend it. It is interesting as to what is classified as a romance, as the first story of the the seven wouldn't be deemed to the modern standards of romantic. However, after getting to know the definition of romance in this context, this is very different to the way we look at romance - in terms of love and gestures, the book becomes increasingly interesting.

Based around the story of Romeo and Juliet, Tony (ex leader of the Jets) falls in love with Maria (sister of Bernardo, the leader of The Sharks). The two gangs organise a rumble whereby the leader of the Jets is killed by Bernardo, in turn, Bernado is then killed by Tony. I fast forwarded through some of the songs as some, particularly the opening song drag on but "America" is a fire-cracker and "Tonight" is just heavenly.

An addicting Hulu original
Contains spoilers, click to show
The costumes and scenery in this show are pretty lovely. I love the storyline of 2 feuding brothels and the shenanigans of the harlots that live (and work) in them. The story is never low on action, although I do find one or two of the plots to be a bit too dramatic. But that's to be expected from a Hulu original. The show is as good as a Netflix show in my opinion.
