6/28/2023 0 Comments Dean koontz hideaway review![]() ![]() Koontz writes Sylvia and Teddy as too good to be true, and Jonah’s too-wise childhood perspective seems overly influenced by Jonah-the-adult’s narration. Tilton’s skirt-chasing ensnares him in a bomb plot by two psychopaths posing as political agitators, putting Jonah and Sylvia in great danger. The narrative covers the '60s shake-ups, including opposition to the Vietnam War. The Beatles rock radio and records, but preteen Jonah is entranced with big band music, and he’s a gifted pianist. ![]() The most constant presence in Jonah’s life is grandfather Teddy Bledsoe, "a piano man," a big band veteran now working as a lounge pianist. He's the son of Sylvia Bledsoe Kirk, a singer gifted enough to have won scholarships, and Tilton Kirk, a rogue smooth enough to get Sylvia pregnant before she could get to college.There’s an off-again, on-again marriage, Tilton fantasizing about celebrity chef-dom and Sylvia working at Woolworths and singing in nightclubs. ![]() Honoring his racial and musical heritage, young Jonah bears seven middle names in homage to the African-American greats of swing music. Koontz ( Innocence, 2013, etc.) genre-bends the metaphysical into a coming-of-age story, one measuring love’s parameters. ![]() ![]() Is my sarcasm too subtle, or are you getting that I thought this book was a wee bit predictable? It might not have been so bad, but along with the predictability comes women embracing their role as second class citizens, mothers willing to turn their backs (literally- we are in Amish country) on their children in the name of their religion for a crime of (gasp!) humming a tune whilst not in church, and emotionally disconnected fathers who would rather see their bishop in a warm shared bed than see a daughter happy! UGH!Īt the risk of excommunication, I will state that there is the slightest possibility of the book in and about itself not being the sole reason for a less than stellar taste being left in my mouth. How will I ever unravel the mysteries of my life? My one true love died while away from home and a body was never recovered. ![]() For some reason she does not summon the community midwife. My mother had 2 miscarriages before I came along. I seem to have a streak of creativity and music within me that the rest of my family does not. ![]() I do not share one physical trait with the rest of my family now or in generations past. ![]() 6/27/2023 0 Comments The Actor's Life by Jenna Fischer![]() ![]() That frank talk and advice make up much of "The Actor's Life," along with many personal examples and stories from other actors. If you look naturally sweet and naive in real life, you aren't going to be cast as a drug-addicted career criminal. "But acting in the entertainment business is about typecasting and gut reactions, especially when you are starting out. "I know what you might be thinking: 'I can play anything! I'm a trained actor!'" she writes. When she found a photographer who could convey that image, it helped lead to her first big job: nice receptionist Pam Beesly in "The Office," Fischer writes in "The Actor's Life: A Survivor's Guide." Problem was, it wasn't really her.įinally, she figured out what she was selling: "sweet, trustworthy, open, cute, and vulnerable." In other words, an actress who was more like her, a 20-something Missourian who graduated from a Catholic High School and state university. In another, she has a seductive gaze and a gaping, spaghetti-strap top.Īlthough the aspiring young actress liked the "fierce, sexy girl" picture, it didn't lead to many jobs. ![]() ![]() In one of her first headshots, Jenna Fischer looks like a chipper teenager in overalls. ![]() ![]() ![]() His other work experience includes over ten years experience at various Mental Health/Psychology clinics as a licensed professional clinical counselor and three years full time corrections research for a large county circuit court in Michigan and inside the walls of Jackson Prison (SPSM), the largest walled prison in the world. ![]() His research has made the front page in newspapers throughout the country, has been featured by the Paul Harvey Show several times, and has been discussed by David Brinkley, Chuck Colson, and other nationally known commentators on national television. ![]() ![]() To discuss his research, he has been a featured speaker on many college campuses throughout the United States and Europe, and is a frequent guest on radio and television programs.

I don’t see any plot holes. I feel like I wasted my time.Īlso this review is for the whole never never series but it’s not really a series it’s basically one book that they split into 3 parts for who knows what reason and still managed to be unfinished. ![]() Everything was mediocre, the writing, the characters even the plot the only reason I kept reading was because I was waiting for the punch line ok you got me why did they lose their memories? But the entire book is the same thing over and over again idk who I am and then the book ends and there’s no explanation of why any of it even happened? What was the FREAKING point?!?!? Colleen, Tarryn listen- I just wanna talk: □♀️ I feel like I must have missed something but idk what lmao. Ummm? Is this an actual joke? How did I FINISH the book and still have no idea what happened? Why it happened? Like how do you write a mystery book or whatever this book is supposed to be but my point is nothing about this book was that great. ![]() 6/26/2023 0 Comments Fair coin by ec myers![]() And a bad flip can destroy other people’s lives as easily as it improves his own. But the coin doesn’t always change things for the better.

Simon Larsen has not been doing well – not only did he lose his architecture business during the lockdowns but they also lost the family home. It was a book club choice for last year but I never ended up getting to it in time but I really wanted to try Toni Jordan (I cannot believe this is my first Toni Jordan novel!) so I put it on my 23 Books I Want To Read In 2023 list. Life with the Schnabel family is messy, chaotic and joyful, and Dinner with the Schnabels is as heartwarming as it is outrageously funny. ![]() As his world spins out of control, who can Simon really count on when the chips are down? Then he discovers Tansy is harbouring a secret. ![]() ![]() To keep everyone happy, Simon needs to do one little job: he has a week to landscape a friend’s backyard for an important Schnabel family event.īut as the week progresses, Simon is derailed by the arrival of an unexpected house guest. His larger-than-life in-laws, the Schnabels – Tansy’s mother, sister and brother – won’t get off his case. Simon is permanently unemployed and permanently unshaven. He adores his wife, Tansy, and his children, but since his business failed and he lost the family home, he can’t seem to get off the couch. Things haven’t gone well for Simon Larsen lately.

It’s hard to tell. The weight of the world was put on Lucy’s shoulders after her mother’s passing. Above all that, Cameron has a heart the size of the ocean. ![]() It just can’t happen.Ĭameron is an artist. You will not be able to read this book and not fall in love with Cam. He wasn’t just there for her, he was there for her brothers. I loved seeing him in the beginning stages of their relationship. How did I overlook him in the first 3 books? I’ve always loved Logan best, but now… now it’s all about Cam!Ĭameron is one of those perfect guys. I have been so excited to read about Lucy ever since I met her. Each book in the series has been better than the last, and this is my favorite by far. I randomly stumbled on a friends review of a new release called More Than This last year and thought I’d give it a go. ![]() |
