Jun 17, 2019
Refs is an electronic-pop duo based in New York City. Not too long ago, they released a music video for their “Turn Around” single.
“Day-one Refs’ fans are a patient breed. When we played our first show earlier this year, and over half the audience knew every word to every song, our minds were actually blown. We wanted to tie a bow on what feels like the end of an era, and set the stage for a new one. But above all else, this mixtape is meant as a sincere thank you to our day-one crew.” – Refs
‘Turn Around’ contains a relatable storyline, pleasing vocals, and lush instrumentation scented with an electro-pop fragrance.
Refs consists of Zach Lipkins and Richard Saunders. Since revealing “Pain Goes Away” in 2015, the bubbly duo has racked up millions of streams online.
Not too long ago, they grouped all of their released music under the banner of their debut mixtape, entitled, “Stories”.
The project features new versions of their “Turn Around” and “Breeze” singles. Also, it serves as a glistening journey through the gorgeous soundscapes that have seen Refs become regarded as a duo to watch.

BookwormMama14 (18 KP) rated The House on Foster Hill in Books
Jan 2, 2019
Just the right amount of suspense, mystery, romance, and creepiness......to satisfy the bookish mind!
I am not typically a "suspense" reader (and DEFINITELY not a suspense movie type of person at all). But when word about this book started circulating around the bookish world last year...I just knew I HAD to read it!!! I mean just look at that cover...It screams "YOU MUST READ ME! You MUST discover the secrets that I hold within these pages!"
Be prepared for a lot of emotions that will be brought to the surface while reading The House on Foster Hill. Jaime addresses some very difficult topics in this book. And I am SO glad she does. It is not easy to read about, but the TRUTH must be shared. The secrets, the pain, the shame, must all be brought forward for healing, restoration, and freedom.
With a dual timeline, the author alternates between the present and the past with flawless accuracy. Secrets and shame hide behind the walls of Foster Hill House. What will be revealed? And what will be lost to history forever?
I received a complimentary copy of The House on Foster Hill. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.

JT (287 KP) rated Brightburn (2019) in Movies
Mar 10, 2020
What if superheroes didn’t arrive on earth with the soul purpose of saving humanity? What if their main intention was to cause pain and suffering? This is the unique premise used in Brightburn to great effect and turns the superhero genre on its head.
Kansas couple Tori (Elizabeth Banks) and Kyle Breyer (David Denman) have been desperately trying to have a child, without success. When a mysterious object lands on their property they discover that all of their prayers have been answered – sound familiar? What begins as the perfect family life starts to unravel in sheer terror as their little bundle of joy turns out to be something far sinister, despite their denial that he might just might be a little misunderstood.
“It’s a boy”
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this one, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it unfolded. There was a solid amount of tension packed with good levels of gore. The jump scare is a staple part of the horror genre but it can become tiresome if not delivered in the right way. Thankfully in this instance it works and works well.
Post credits deliver more to the story which has the potential to spawn a sequel, although I prefer the idea that this is a one off.

Mothergamer (1598 KP) rated Final Fantasy VII Remake in Video Games
Apr 21, 2020
I just finished the game and it really delivered. The main story is pretty much the same as the original, but there are some new elements that change a few things here and there. Those changes honestly make the game better and add some great elements to the story as well as allowing you to get to know some characters better like Biggs, Jessie, and Wedge. The battle system is done really well making fights and boss fights fun. There are side quests and mini games that add more to the exploration of Midgar. Getting to see Midgar in depth like this definitely adds to the atmosphere and story of the game. The music for the game is perfect and the fact that each character has their own theme song is a nice touch. Cloud is much better here too. The story takes the time to show the pain and trauma he has suffered, but also allows him to be a little more vulnerable with his emotions as well. Getting to see him gradually open up and grow as a person as he gets to know everyone was great to see. The game is amazing and got everything just right.
