![]() You get to see her watch plus get to watch the man be strangled to death. As a little girl, she is forced to watch a man be strangled to death. We fast fwd through many scenes which by the way took a while on fast fwd and still saw more than I wanted. Another scene that is also drawn out, pretty much same thing. One scene he's laying there and she climbs on top, starts unbuttoning shirt. Sex scenes of the woman and her husband are drawn out. Then she is standing naked with nothing but her hair covering chest. You can see her entire back side and even glimpses in mirror that is so conveniently located to see some side boob. ![]() I mean, I knew story line but I expected less graphic content in a Christian movie. ![]() We watched for our anniversary and my throat was in my stomach the whole time.

![]() ![]() She has a magical community of beloved elokos to hide among and an adoptive sister in Effie, but Tavia is still the only siren around. Kinda like a Black person instantly being “no angel” after a police officer murders them.Īnd Tavia is a siren–one whose dad is so anti-siren she nearly killed herself trying to get rid of her voice, prompting the family’s move to Portland. Just claim she was a siren and everyone is on your side with no evidence necessary. See, sirens are exclusively Black girls and women and sirenhood can’t be proven after death. The Hart family murder-suicide and the murder very suspicious death of Sandra Bland are brought up, as are multiple fictional Black women whose murderers got away with it by claiming the women were sirens using their voices to control their killers. Tavia and Effie’s world is ours with just a little myth-made-real on top. ![]() ![]() Edited by Cemetery Dance founder, Richard Chizmar and Robert Morrish. ![]() Additional short Halloween reminisces by numerous authors and artists as well as other Halloween flavoured material.

Lessonsrepresents a sustained and knowing flirtation with that mode. ![]() Previous novels have made use of material from McEwan’s own life, but “autobiographical” is another word we don’t associate with his fiction. Roland shares more than just a birth date with his author. This cradle-to-grave (well, seven-ish to seventy-something) narrative concerns the life and times of Roland Baines, born, like McEwan, in 1948. Yet all of these adjectives could be applied to his surprising new novel, Lessons. It’s simpler to say what McEwanesque is not: baggy, meandering, plotless, long. What would that even mean? The dark psychological instability of The Comfort of Strangers and Enduring Love? The gleeful comedy of Solar and Nutshell? The smart social realism of Saturday and The Children Act? The metafictional games of Atonement and Sweet Tooth? Ian McEwan’s brilliant capacity for reinvention is a hallmark of his literary career. ![]() ![]() But these aren’t just any nameless, faceless vamps. ![]() It’s not until a group of three finds me that I think I’ve finally met my match. Each of them wanting to be the one to say they plucked The Black Rose. It seems more and more of the bloodsucking bastards seek to find me every day. You see, I’ve made something of a name for myself with my trade. The one who slaughtered my mother and left me, a child, to sit screaming in a pool of her still-warm blood. And after five years I still haven’t found him-the vamp with one blue eye and one brown. The polished metal stakes strapped to my thighs have pierced the hearts of so many vampires I’ve lost count. ![]() But don’t let the delicate name fool you-I’m all thorns… Has some issues, but it fairly interesting. ![]() My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars Fast Burn, PNR RHĪvailable on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited Down and Dirtyįast and naughty Reverse Harem that reimagines the Vampire Mythos.

Horace dissects some of the nation's most highly publicized police shootings and communities highlighted in the Black Lives Matter movement and beyond to explain how these systems and tactics have had detrimental outcomes to the people they serve. ![]() Yet it was after seven years of service when Horace found himself face-down on the ground with a gun pointed at his head by a white fellow officer, that he fully understood the racism seething within America's police departments. Matthew Horace was an officer at the federal, state, and local level for 28 years working in every state in the country. A must-read for anyone interested in understanding and solving these problems." - Booklist (starred review) "his hard-hitting, convincing indictment of the biases in today's law enforcement.
