Merissa (13749 KP) rated Hot Rod Haunting (Les Petites Morts) in Books
Jun 7, 2023
In a fast-paced ghost story, Kami is ecstatic that her friend Mona has returned home from university. Kami is bi and has always liked Mona, but has been afraid to say anything. Now she decides that is enough is enough, and tells her. This leads to some girl-on-girl action before they move off to a different location.
This is only a short story so it's really not worth me giving you the whole rundown on the story as you may as well read it for yourself! It is steamy and mysterious with a twist that is obvious once you've read it, but you would never see it coming.
Absolutely recommended for a quick (dark) read.

I do like a book with an unreliable narrator, and Anna O has them in spades! You won’t know who to trust - even the people you’re supposed to be able to rely on will prove thoroughly untrustworthy. And everyone in this novel has a secret or two that they don’t want anyone to know about.
The Anna O in question, is a woman who committed murder and then immediately fell asleep. Four years later, the Home Office want Dr. Benedict Prince, a specialist in sleep disorders, to wake her up. He’s reluctant to be involved with the case because of his own secrets, and as the story continues his fears are proven correct.
This is an exciting read believe it or not, even though one of the main characters is asleep!
The short chapters means the story races along, and I was repeatedly left on a cliffhanger.
What a ride this story was!!

Felt very low budget (1 more)
Poor Cgi
Low budget 4th entry
Good to see Kate Beckinsale back for this forth outing. Just a pity it seems they are short of ideas, and backing it seems. It doesn't have the production value of the previous films, especially the first two. The cgi for the Lycans at times isn't that impressive. Hopefully if they do anymore it will be with a bigger budget and better story line. For fans of the franchise mainly who seek another Selene outing.

The best part of the book is the Sommelier
Mira Grant's "The Wine in Dreams" is about a sommelier who learns the lengths to which a person will go for a product representing a fantasy. This is by far and away the best story in the book. it's 4 short stories that interweave in this specific city in the star wars universe, which is essentially Las Vegas turned up to 11. If you love the star wars universe, it'll tickle that fancy, if you're not the stories are still interesting. I enjoyed it.

I think this had potential with a good location for a horror, but overall it's no where near what it could have been. If this was a short story it might have been better but even at 85mins it feels way too long. The majority of the film features the girl running and screaming through tunnels in the darkness.....followed by more running through dark tunnels! The twist ending did start to become a bit obvious, well the first part anyway, and it has been done much better in many other horrors.

A nice, quick and enjoyable read. I should say that I shouldn't really class this short story as a 'romance' as it is more of a dose of 'smut'...but good smut I might add.
It outlines the bully/victim relationship with a splash of attraction and lust leaving the reader wanting more. In my personal opinion I can not stand bullies and people who abuse others so it makes me cringe a bit when these people are so easily forgiven. Even so I would definitely consider reading the possible sequel.
