Doesn't work as a stand-alone book
I'm not sure what to make of this book. It's interesting, but it doesn't work as a stand-alone story, and requires having knowledge and plot of previous books.
The best character is Emma, who is an absolute saint of a woman, trying to be an appropriate mother figure to her very distressed and damaged stepdaughter all the while trying to protect her from gangsters. The first half of the book shows the stepdaughter Tasha living in the streets having run away from a perilous situation and attempting to trust people again. It's okay but a little over the top.

Stormi (105 KP) rated Wish - Shopping Made Fun in Apps

What can I say? This is an app full of awesome things at cheap prices. You get what you pay for. I use this for more jewelry than anything. I dont trust it for clothes because I always see that the sizes are never right etc. It is an app I have used many times in the past. I can't give it a perfect rating because wait times are longer than listed and like I said you get what you pay for. Some things are cheaply made. But, overall, I have used this app and enjoyed it. Just be cautious when you do use.

I dare you not to sing along
Little Shop of Horrors is one of those movies that if I find out you don't like it I'll never trust you to recommend movies to me again.... just kidding... but not really.
This movie has everything you could ever want
Catchy Music
Amazing Cast
Memorable Characters
Audrey II
and it's just campy enough to make you laugh without being ridiculous.
And if you haven't seen it I definitely recommend watching the Alternate ending which I really wish would have been the original ending from the start because it is 100x better which I didn't even think was possible.

Nice heart warming story
Romantic comedies are not my usual read but I felt like a change. And I'm very glad I gave it a try, it was a very easy read as it was full of good scene setting description character build ups and an interesting back story too. Well worth the read, even if you're not a romcom reader.
The story is about Katy who is a wedding photographer with her own business who was left struggling after a family betrayal. Katy learns to trust and eventually love again. There are ups and downs that keep you glued to the book from beginning to end!

Feb 15, 2018
This was a found read. It also got my emotions for what a surprising ending as well. Dylan and Annie have to struggle with their past to get though. Though Annie is more worried about her sister and nephew more so then what really is bothering her.
Though it all though they do find somethings. I suggest if you pick this one up you get some tissues. It reach the value of true love and having faith and letting go. Annie as though things needing to learn though out the book. Dylan need to learn somethings though most of it is Annie needing to learn to trust as well.

One of the best B movies of all time
I first saw this film as a midnight movie (back when those were a thing) when I worked at the cinema. I would pop in occasionally to check on the crowd and I was always amazed at what I saw and how much the audience was getting into it and laughing hysterically.
This is one of those films you can't explain to someone without it sounds utterly idiotic, but is just a lot of fun with some good horror thrown in.
Trust me when I say you will love it!

Beautiful story
Contains spoilers, click to show
A lovely tale of love, loss and recovery. The story follows Lauras pursuit to fulfil a friend's dying wish while dealing with her own past and learning to trust in herself and others again.
It's a delightful little read with lots of mini tales written by one of the characters about the 'lost things' he has collected over the years.
I truly enjoyed the idea that all the little things that get misplaced over the years have been collected and are just waiting to be reunited with thier owner.
However the idea of the ghost in the house spoiled it slightly
