Kirsten Myra Edwards (303 KP) rated The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society in Books
Feb 2, 2020
I love love love this book. The story follows a writer in the aftermath of war torn London. She needs inspiration for her latest article or novel when the answer lands on her doorstep in the shape of a letter from Guernsey. She follows the tale of their literary society and how it got them through the war. The only question is why hasn't Elizabeth come home.
What an amazing story and really highlights the horrible life people had to live through during the occupation. Rightfully this was made into a film which is still good but when you read the book your find out so much more about the characters and their lives.
A must read for anyone who likes history.

Flawed Angel ( The Fall book 1)
By J.J. Dean
When war breaks out between the angels, Luna Grayson finds herself with a one way ticket to exile. Thrown off her pedestal next to her creator and banished to live her eternal life among the humans she so admired, Luna crash lands on Earth as punishment for refusing to choose between God and Lucifer.
Since her banishment, Luna has lived through multitude of eras, trends and countless changes the world has made since Falling. She's also spent most of her existence on Earth alone, her café owning best friend and Brutus the horse sized dog her only exceptions.
Content on blending amongst the flawed humans with her only friend by her side, it comes as a huge surprise when her life is invaded by four angels all with an agenda: to finally make her choose. With another war on the horizon, the angels are sent from both sides to convince her to pick between Heaven or Hell, the four angels tasked with coaxing Luna to their side. Only, they didn't consider that Luna's first choice would be her only.
Luna's life on Earth quickly finds itself threatened by outside sources, both good and evil determined to drag the fallen angel to their side. Despite their efforts, Luna is determined to remain on Earth, for the humans aren't the only beings who are flawed. And Luna is perfectly happy being a Flawed Angel.
I really really enjoyed this book! It had a good strong female lead some super hunky men and sexual tension you could cut with a knife! The writing style flowed so nicely! I enjoyed the whole heaven and hell fighting for her support especially now she’s become more powerful. I think as the series goes on it will get a lot better!

Just watched at my local cineworld wasn't expecting much when I went I'm but I can say it was rather good movie as I've never watched better call Saul which I will now after watching this movie Bob odenkirk sold it for playing every day type of person leading a normal boring life till a incident at home sets him off some of the violence did get over the top but was okay with me overall definitely worth a rewatch
Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Rocketman (2019) in Movies

Rocketman was good. Wasn't what I was expecting, but not in a bad way. If you're expecting a Bohemian Rhapsody type of movie, you should know it's not. It was shot more in the style of Across the Universe, which is one of my favorite musical movies. They did a great job of incorporating his songs to associate to different parts of his life and helping in telling his story. If you're a fan of Elton John and musicals, then I think you'll enjoy it.

A Promise for Tomorrow by Miranda Barnes is a wonderful book. It is a story about new beginning and new romantic interests. Just because one chapter in your life ends does not mean that life ends all together and this story shows the reader that second chances come around. Sarah, the main character, needed a change of pace so she quit her job, ended her relationship that was going nowhere and moved to a new place. In her new environment she found a new job, and made new friends. Sarah met India and became good friends which opened the door to meeting more people like Robert. The story will have you rooting for Sarah and Robert and their relationship.
The story was simply written but shows that people can take a chance on love when they have lost the one they love.
I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley for a fair and honest review.
