Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated A Fistful of Charms (The Hollows, #4) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
I'm still in a bit of a rut in relation to paranormal books but I was determined to finish this, especially considering I'd been reading it for over two weeks--which is ridiculous when I think the third book in the series took me 2/3 days.
I enjoyed it the more I read and reading more of Rachel, Ivy and Jenks was nice. They get themselves into some right situations at times.
I'm not going to read any more of the series yet.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Death Rejoices (The Marnie Baranuik Files #2) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
4.5 stars.
I still love this series.
Witty, paranormal, adventure/mysteries with Marnie and the team. If you haven't read this series yet and like the sound of it, I definitely recommend you buy it.
Long but oh, so good.
P.S. I'm still holding out for a Mark Batten/Marnie Baranuik full on romance--maybe possibly with Harry not minding sharing her or not in the frame at all, though I can't see that happening. Maybe in book three which I am dying to buy!

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Heller's Revenge (Heller, #2) in Books
Jan 7, 2021
I'm still so intrigued by this series. The will they/won't they of Heller and Tilly. It's obvious they both want to, and I'm quite literally begging them to!, but they're resisting--well Tilly's resisting--and it's driving me mad!
I felt like we missed out on more bonding time with Tilly, Niq and Daniel. They make such a cute trio with their teasing and general messing around. But once again i am straight off to buy book 3 in the series to see what happens next.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Sweet Reckoning (Sweet, #3) in Books
Jan 12, 2021
Wow.
I have adored this series since the first book. So much happens. Love. Friendship. Death. So much time passes.
I loved all the Nephilim, all for different reasons, and I have a feeling this story will stay with me for a while.
A classic tale of good versus evil with a brilliant plot and characters. I loved the ending, some bits were sad and others were lovely. The romance was uplifting.
If you haven't read this series yet, then I definitely recommend you do.
AMAZING!

Dean (6927 KP) rated Line of Duty - Season 1 in TV

Some good actors (1 more)
Plenty of twists
Interesting cop drama
After recently watching Bodyguard I'd thought I'd check this out as it was written by the same person. I've heard great reviews about this for a while, good to see all 4 series available on Netflix. This is a short 5 episode series that mainly follows the Police anti-corruption team. There are plenty of twists and action along the way as the stakes get higher. If you have missed it so far check it out.

Sonofdel (6291 KP) rated Prime Suspect 1973 in TV
Sep 29, 2019
A good insight into how Jane Tennison became so hard and ruthless
I am a massive fan of the prime suspect series and i was a little wary of this at first. Its as dark as the original series and its got good characters and plot. What starts of as a simple murder investigation escalates into a lot more and its good to see the developement of Jane Tennison from a probationer policewoman. Well worth a watch.

BookwormLea (3034 KP) rated Stranger Things - Season 1 in TV
Jul 10, 2019
This series is one of my all time favourites! It's such a unique and strange concept that it must works perfectly! I love the whole plot line and how it flows so brilliantly into each episode. Mike is so brilliant and Millie makes an excellent Eleven and I couldn't imagine her being played by anyone else! The rest of that characters/actors are just as good! They all work so well together and have great on screen chemistry! Amazing series! Truly worth the watch!
