How The Marquess Was Won


 How The Marquess Was Won
 I enjoyed this a lot. It is a bit verbose but not in an irritating way.  The intimate scenes were very tasteful. 

Silent Parade


 Silent Parade  I loved it. Perfect. The only thing that did not work for me was the reader but not because of anything being wrong in his reading. The performance was just not for me.

Between Sisters


 Between Sisters  This author is a good storyteller. Even though I'm familiar with her themes now (this is kind of similar to Firefly Lane) I was engaged in the story and end up being satisfied. Recommended if the synopsis sounds good to you. The audio performance was very good too.

Succession S:3

Succession  S:3  was perfect. Especially the season finale.  

Never Love A Highlander

 

Never Love A Highlander  I'm not that particular about Highland romances and enjoyed this one.

Some information:

- Plucky heroine
- Mighty warrior who is tender and kind
- Lots of intimate scene but delicately described

Overall a good reading experience.

Hellbound

Hellbound  turned out to be very depressing (good but depressing).

Tears  yes, a lot of tears

The Autumn Bride

 

The Autumn Bride came at the right time and I enjoyed it very much. 

Tears   yes 

The Holiday

The Holiday   this is my third viewing I think and I still like it. It is a typical Nancy Meyers film and a good one to start her filmography. 

Jade Legacy

 

Jade Legacy  LOVED it. 


Tears   yep

Joker

Joker   great performance but not much else appealed to me (in fact I fell asleep and had to rewind more than once)

Kanaldaki Kadın


 Kanaldaki Kadın fena değildi ancak neden orjinal dilinden değil de İngilizceden çevrildiğini anlayamadım. Suyunun suyu gibi olmuş biraz.

The Power of The Dog

The Power of The Dog   I loved it. Loved it. 

The Guilty

 

The Guilty  I did not like it. The actors were very good but the story left me somehow cold. 

The Last House On The Left (1972)

The Last House On The Left   (1972) is a decent effort and I liked it.

Overboard (2018)


 Photo from wikipedia


Overboard (2018)  I love the original. However the remake is not as good. Mainly because no sane woman will leave her three daughters (of various ages, eldest 13) with a man who is not of a good character. I could not get past it. 

Arcane

Arcane   this was seriously good. I do not like this sort of setting (sort of steam punkish, industrial) and I liked it very much.

Little Gods


 Little Gods There is nothing wrong with it. It just did not work for me. The audio version is fine.

The Paying Guests


 The Paying Guests This is an excellent novel (but then again, I'm a fan) It just was not the right time for me to read it (hence the long time it took me to).
