Dracoria Malfoy (690 KP) rated The Sun is Also a Star in Books
Jul 11, 2018
As a fan of slowburn, this book is not exactly for me, considering the romance is in a literal day. However, credit is given where credit is due (is that the saying?) and truly, this was a very good book. It was fast-paced, complicated, and the perspectives of other people along with the two mains were a blessing, kind of a quiet separation from the main thing, shedding light on the fact that people who you don't know significantly have complicated lives, just like you. This book proves that fate and science are different, but maybe they just go hand in hand with each other.
ashezbookz (32 KP) rated The Program (The Program, #1) in Books
Jul 5, 2018
While this book had some certain tropes in it (hello love triangle) - and it definitely would have some trigger warnings, a few times I was shocked at what I read, not necessarily in a bad way - but some people may actually have issues with this book if they're super sensitive.
the whole suicide epidemic was quite an interesting story to read (granted that right there should trigger people - hey don't read this book) - the whole lobotomy after getting into the program was intense too - though wickedly fun to read about.
i'm very very curious to see where this series goes.....luckily I checked them all out from the library!

Milleen (47 KP) rated The Couple Next Door in Books
Nov 14, 2018
Another major new talent to emerge in the last few years. The narrative begins with a dinner party, a couple leave their child to go next door, taking the baby monitor and checking in every half hour. Not enough to prevent a nightmare unravelling. This is a psychological thriller that pulls you into the worst possible situation and drags you through a multitude of twists and turns. The tag line, ‘People are capable of almost anything’ really doesn’t prepare you for the shocking revelations within the pages. It leads you to question how well you know those around you and how much stress it takes to push people to the edge.
A must-watch Documentary - Drama
An excellent insight into what happened at Chernobyl Nuclear Powerplant which has opened up my interest in the subject and made me read more into the characters /history etc.
The suffering that followed in the wake of the disaster is mind blowing though the 'official' recorded death toll is only around 35 people.
A must watch for young and old though some seems are upsetting / distressing.
Although the team of scientists who supported after the incident were mainly depicted by one character in the series, the bravery of those people is inspiring and should not be forgotten.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Untouchable (2019) in Movies
Nov 24, 2019
Untouchable is a documentary film about Harvey Weinstein being a dirtbag. The whole situation is still highly disturbing, and the fact that the harassment/abuse was being covered up is disgusting. I found it interesting that people had been reporting it, and nothing was done.
My favorite interviewee was the former assistant that found out about it via court docs delivered to the office and up and quit. There were other assistants that quit too. I like people with conviction to stand up. But, too bad they were all paid off/signed noon-disclosure agreements.
It's an interesting documentary, though it is completely disturbing,
