Ashley Catron (66 KP) rated Rebecca's Lost Journals, Volume 2: The Contract (Inside Out, #1.2) in Books
Mar 14, 2018
The second book in the Lost Journals novellas definitely leaves the reader breathless and craving more. In "The Contract", Rebecca's new relationship turns into something she is unsure of if she can continue or not, or if it is going to be a deal breaker for her. Although the novellas are short, it definitely increases the suspense and sex appeal of her new "Master".

A nice short read that I enjoyed but you have to read the others to know who all the characters are and what the've been through. This is the first i've read from this author and it won't be the last as I intend to catch up on the series. Plenty of action and suspense and also alittle heat. Also love the cover.

I have really conflicted feelings over this book. I think, yes, it was good, but it could have been a lot better as well. This is short, because, honestly, I don't know what to think. There were funny and sad moments, but none so wonderfully well written enough for me to fall in love with the book like I do with so many others.

This book had some holes in the plot but not enough to sink it. The characters made up for what was lacking and since this is a character driven story it worked. Brooke did a good job describing anxiety issues and that made Giselle seem more authentic. This gets four stars from me because despite the short fallings it was still a pleasure to read.

This is one of the saddest films I have ever seen. You can't help but like Randy and you keep rooting for him hoping his bad luck will change. It seems to for a short while which makes it all the harder when it goes downhill again. It is slow but that allows the film to "breathe" somewhat and I liked that it was not rushed.

WE STAN
I love I love I love. we stan. Look at this diversity! A hijabi Muslim girl, MULTIPLE GAY BOIS, a gay girl, punk, POCs, and so, so, so much more. It's gorgeous, so, so perfect, I stg I binged it. I really wished there were more episodes a season, considering they're all so short. Otherwise, it was a beautiful show, and very, very, very great.

Harsh truth
Beautifully illustrated by Alice Tait, Pam Ayres' poem about The Last Hedgehog is a clever set of verses about the demise of the hedgehog population. Although the rhyme makes readers want to laugh, it highlights the dangers to hedgehogs caused by contemporary society. With this short book, Ayres hopes to open the eyes of the ignorant and change people's attitudes to nature.

This was George Saunders' convocation speech that he gave at Syracuse University. He speaks about kindness, and being kind throughout your lifetime. It was a nice speech, but I wasn't as moved as I thought I'd be. I think it's because I recently read Mr. Saunders' short story, Fox 8. Fox 8 was a million times more of an emotional event for me than this speech was.

I don't know why, but for some reason: I just couldn't get into this book.
While it's not the worst I've ever read, I found it to actually be quite heavy going: even the action scenes seemed, to me, to be void of any danger or excitement, while the plot seemed pedestrian at best.
In short: don't think I'll be rushing out to buy the sequel!
