The Flight (Close Proximity #4) by Erin M. Leaf
The Flight is the fourth novella in the Close Proximity series. This time we meet up with Sebastian, a flight attendant, and Ethan, a musician. Now, you may think this is the normal rockstar romance, but it's not. This story is intricate in a way novellas rarely are. Not only do we see Sebastian as a flight attendant, but also as a young man who has lost his mum. A young man who writes music. And yet we still find out more about him as the story progresses. As for Ethan, tired musician, songwriter, travelling to a charity concert. When these two meet, sparks fly.
I loved this book! It's a novella, and I really wish it wasn't! I could have sat down with this one and read happily for much longer. Instead, I got all the good bits in one easy read, including a perfect HEA for our guys. There is plenty going on, but the pacing is smooth. With good supporting characters, a great storyline, and a couple of smoking hot MCs, this is a story I highly recommend.

Revenge and Vengeance
Four Brothers- is a good movie. It has action, suspense, thrills and chills.
The plot: When an inner-city Detroit foster mother (Fionnula Flanagan) is murdered in a botched holdup, four of her now-grown adopted children suspect it was no random killing. Rising musician Jack (Garrett Hedlund), former-Marine Angel (Tyrese Gibson), hotheaded hockey player Bobby (Mark Wahlberg) and settled-down husband and father Jeremiah (André Benjamin) go on the hunt for neighborhood criminal kingpin Victor Sweet (Chiwetel Ejiofor) while being trailed themselves by the local beat cops.
The cast is good, the action is good, the suspense is good and its a good thriller.

I loved it all. So much fun to see another side to this author. I loved the musician aspect as well. The love, the hardships, the conflicts and the amazing bond between sisters and even through everything they are together. I loved how it ended and the end brought everything together perfectly. The lyrics are amazing.. and I loved Saul. He brought more into this story. The betrayal involved was perfect for the story and made me feel. As always when reading I felt like I was brought into the story. I love that Alexia can make me feel like I transported to the story and I have to finish reading it as soon as possible. Amazing!

Rolling Stone's 22nd greatest album of all time
The subject of many mysterious stories of soul-selling and devil-dealing, which is obviously complete nonsense. Quite simply, Johnson was a blues musician who initially wasn't very good and then, after a couple of years of intensive practice, he became quite good. His songs tended to have a dark, macabre theme to them, which led people to believe the hype of him selling his soul to the devil, a story which wasn't invented until after his death, and has grown arms and legs since.
Superb blues songs from a master of the Delta blues style, most notably Sweet Home Chicago, Come on in my Kitchen and Cross Road Blues.
