Appeals to viewers of all ages
Arrow, a superhero drama, has an appealing lead performance from Stephen Amell. This show's dark and realistic tone really brings on the suspense. It has a very compelling villain in John Barrowman's Malcolm Merlyn, whom is a pretty well-written character that makes you understand his motives. Sometimes the show includes The CW's melodramatic moments, which can be extremely difficult to get through. However, the show still manages to pull the audience back in with it's well-choreographed, cinema-quality action sequences and brilliant performances from very talented actors and actresses.

Superb read! Well written, with a great plot and characters. I was engrossed from start to finish. This book has action, suspense, intrigue, and tension. Theo is the rightful Queen of Astrea and she is willing to do anything to take it back. Theo is gritty, clever, determined, ready to do whatever to help her friends and her people. There are several twists and turns, and the ending is amazing. Blaise, Soren, Cress, Artemesia, Heron I fell in love with all of them. I cannot wait for the second book in the series! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

This is the complete series of books in this set, I loved having all the books together. This is a dark romance story, which will have you reading long into the night. This book is packed with very violent themes such as murder, intrigue and betrayal. This is a fast paced series of books, each one sucking you into the story more and more. Amazing well written story with exceptional characters. This story has it all romance, heartbreak, suspense, tragedy and betrayal. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.



Highly recommended series

Noelle Winters does a good job creating a sense of suspense in [Remember Me]. The plot centers around Katy who's daughter was kidnapped three years ago. Suddenly the case is refreshed by a picture of her daughter being sent to her. The FBI sends Alex to liason with local law enforcement and the family on this case that her father originally worked. These two broken women find friendship and hope within each other.

The plot of this takes some unexpected twists. The romance is there but not the main focus. It was a really quick read with developed characters and a very steady pace.

I love a mystery that wastes no time with setup and has me in suspense from page 1, and Between Good and Evil did just that. It took a bit to catch on to what was happening in Auburn Notch, but that’s not a bad thing. The reader is left to piece things together as the story unfolds just as the characters are, and there is a lot going on. The characters are well formed and the descriptions very detailed. This was a good first installment, and I’ll be watching for more Promise Flynn.

NOTE: I received a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

<i>NOTE: I voluntarily read and reviewed a free copy provided to me by the author.</i>

Marlee and friends are back in the 2nd Berry Basket Mystery, and I enjoyed this one even more than the first. While surveying a possible starting location for the annual road rally, Marlee finds the body of a girl missing for 20 years hidden in the overgrowth. Can she catch a killer when the murder happened so long ago?

I enjoy reading about Marlee and her friends, and I would love to visit Oriole Point. With such a great combination of characters, setting, and suspense, I’m already looking forward to book #3.

Characters, suspense, unique premise (0 more)
Incredibly unique book will keep you guessing
This novel is unlike anything I have read before. Each time I thought I was starting to get it, it would change on me just enough to get me guessing again. The characters are each unique and vibrant individuals, no small task considering the same man was inhabiting several of them, and the story is beautifully written. Even without the element of mystery, I would have been hooked. It’s a story I can’t say too much about without giving things away, but I can say that it was the best thing I’ve read in ages.
  
The Thing (1982)
The Thing (1982)
1982 | Horror, Sci-Fi
Not that many films better than this!
I don't know if I can recall the amount of times I have watched The Thing in sheer amazement every time.

The suspense is still there not knowing which member of the Antarctica squad will become a mutation next or even when The Thing will reveal itself to them and the audience.

Some may say Halloween is Carpenter's best film which is hard to argue against; however, I love The Thing most of all.

I can still watch it again and again and be mesmerized, disgusted and in wonderment of its sheer majesty every time.

Possibly my fave film of all time...so so good

fab read
This is the second part in this set but the seventh part in this series by this authjor. These books need to be read in order to fully understand the story between the characters. This book is full of twists and turns, surprises, drama, lies, betrayal and loads of suspense. amazing well written characters just like the first book. This is a short read but the author has packed a lot into the pages. I can't wait to read more in this set and by this author in the future.
