Book Divas (227 KP) rated Look Past in Books

Dec 12, 2017 (Updated Dec 12, 2017)

This read had me feeling a range of emotions; from heartache to anger to pride. Avery was born in the wrong body and has always identified as a male. That in itself is already hard to deal with as people and his peers are constantly giving him grief and calling him all sorts of things from freak to queer but now he also has to deal with an unforeseen tragedy that has everyone reeling.

This author's gripping tale of lost love, tragedy, bigotry and acceptance captured me from the very beginning with a beautifully written story line and characters that draw you in. As the mother of a teenager that identifies as a female I highly recommend this to everyone and thank the author for this well written book.

Out of the Dark, Alexis is fleeing a horrific tragedy after witnessing the murder of her family she leaves Seattle and relocates to New York City. Aiden Steffan just happens to be her first client and be a world-renowned male model. Even though Aiden Steffan image is everywhere is the image is everywhere. Sparks fly between Alexis and Aiden until a trip to Bahama changes everything. Alexis and Aiden's Past come to a head when the past resurfaces come to a head when the past resurfaces and he knows where and with whom Alexis is with. Arlene Gonzales does not disappoint with her steamy romance and you feel for the tragedy and pain that plague Alexis and Aiden and has you fighting for them to finally find each other in the end.

The Elongated Man?

If, like me, you'd no idea who the latter character is - even though he has recently shown up in the DC TV series 'The Flash' - then this might seem a risky proposition. A few pages in, however, that decision pays off: unlike the 'big name' characters of DC (for whom you know nothing bad will ever really 'stick'), by making a relatively-minor character the initial focal point of the story, the tragedy that strikes (with the murder of his wife) really hits home.

That tragedy then being the reason why other members of the super-hero community start investigating her death, with it eventually coming to light that there is more going on here than meets the eye ...

Goodbye Christopher Robin (2017) offers us a very stiff upper lipped British tragedy. #Review

With something as pure and innocent as the adventures of Winnie The Pooh, you’d be forgiven for thinking the story of their creation would be equally as heart-warming and uplifting. But, as Simon Curtis’ absorbing biopic reveals, the truth is anything but...
