I - had words for this book - and my husband had to sit there and just listen to me rage lol
I didn't mind the last portion of the book but this one, though beautifully written, had strange coloured text, which I DESPISED, and was slow, agonizing in some areas, but alas.... did I hate it, no.
Oh Thorn and his adorableness was just... I couldn't help but fall for that character so I guess that's the point - I did enjoy reading mostly his parts of the book, her parts were meh for the most part. I really loved the cat too - I'm a sucker for pets in books!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Overall not bad !

"Six stories are told in this movie, and all are entertaining and enjoyable. However, because these are short stories, I found some ended too soon, left me wanting more, to find out what happened next, and one or two had disappointing endings. The pick of the stories are 'El más fuerte', about a road rage incident that escalates and the last story, 'Hasta que la muerte nos separe', about a wedding that goes very very badly! I would have liked some connection between each story, like a character appearing in each, but as it is it still comes highly recommended."

Kajillionaire Review
This is the kind of movie I've been waiting all year for. I would happily push all of this years and next years blockbusters into 2022 if it meant getting to watch movies like Kajillionaire. Sadly the cinema industry wouldn't survive, so for now I'll watch whatever I can and sit through the Bond trailer in silent rage. Kajillionaire is a heist movie like no other I've ever seen. Imagine Ocean's Eleven was actually a Sundance movie, and that's what you get. Evan Rachel Wood is completely unrecognizable as Old Dolio, with her over-sized tracksuit and gruff voice.

Colorful, beautiful art (5 more)
Clear rulebook
Quick reference card for each phase
Easy to moderate difficulty to learn
Best for 4 players
2 player variant
Beautiful game with excellent gameplay
If you've played and liked another CMON game, Blood Rage, you'll love this game! The object of the game is to win with the most points, but the path to claim that victory is completely up to the player. Make alliances and collect favor from the gods, wield your might in battle for a region at the end of each season, or spend your power wisely to collect rewards and boost your score. Always a favorite at game day!

World of Crash
Remember the old Crash games? Where it was rather simple to complete the levels.
Well think again about the new and improved ?
Some levels you can comomete and think oh wow i did it with no deaths and all my lives!
And some bring on gamer rage!
The graphics on the new game is amazing and it's like you can actually reach out and pet Crash. Which in all fairness I think everyone would do if we had the oppertunity!
This game is recommended by myself to all of those old school gamers who want to bring back memories of the old days!

The Last One
Taken 3 or Ta3en is a good film, but should of never been 2 sequels but their was. This is the final one hopefully.
The plot: Ex-covert operative Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) and his ex-wife, Lenore (Famke Janssen), are enjoying a reconciliation when Lenore is brutally murdered. Bryan is framed for the crime and flees, with the CIA, FBI and police all in hot pursuit. For the last time, he channels his rage and particular set of skills into hunting down Lenore's real killers, taking his revenge and protecting the one important thing left in his life: his daughter, Kim (Maggie Grace).
I just recordmend watching the first one.

This throws us straight into the story with Celia and her sisters on trial for murdering a vampire. Only it turns out the vampire was in a bloodlust filled rage at the time and they're let off the charge. Only then they get asked to help solve the problem of the curse on the Master's family that is causing his vampires to fall into the strange rage that can only be cured by death.
During this time she meets an Alpha werewolf, Aric, who tempts her inner tiger. They are drawn to each other time and time again, causing a tension between his pack and herself. They believe as a born werewolf he should be with someone of the same ilk and as Celia's shapeshifting is as the result of a curse that she isn't worthy of him.
I loved Celia and her sisters. The could kick arse with their abilities and luckily they could heal themselves when they got hurt too. Well, Emme could heal them after they threw themselves into whatever trouble they found themselves in.
I liked Gemini and Koda--love interests of Celia's sisters. Liam always seemed to butt in at inopportune times to remind Aric of other things he should be doing instead of spending time with Celia which annoyed me no end.
I found this quite funny. It was my kind of humour and I was chuckling and grinning like a loon for most of my time reading this.
I cannot wait to read more of this series to see what happens between all our couples.

The Low Outcome
The First Purge- a not nesscary film, a pequel film to the purge franchise and this one, like the first one is boring, nothing happens. Not alot of suspense, thrills and horror. So why borther with this film, dont watch this film.
The plot: To push the crime rate below one percent for the rest of the year, the New Founding Fathers of America test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community. But when the violence of oppressors meets the rage of the others, the contagion will explode from the trial-city borders and spread across the nation.
Dont watch this film, its very boring. Watch the 2nd and 3rd one.

With wings of midnight and an affinity for shadows, Jason courts darkness. But now, with the Archangel Neha’s consort lying murdered in the jewel-studded palace that was his prison and her rage threatening cataclysmic devastation, Jason steps into the light, knowing he must unearth the murderer before it is too late.
Earning Neha’s trust comes at a price—Jason ...
This is one of my favourite series I really enjoy Nalinis books. This is the story of Jason and Mahiya. Which hasn't gripped me as it normally would. It was great catching up with Dimitri and Honor as well as Raphael and Elana seems so long ago I read how it all started.
Looking forward to the next installment!
⭐⭐⭐⭐
