Shining Inheritance

Shining Inheritance is one of my all time favorite Korean Dramas. This is the third time I watched it and I enjoy it every single viewing. Highly recommended especially if you like the Candy type girl with secretly kind hearted but acting like jerk chaebol type storyline. The second lead here is the shinging example of how a good man who has everything can lose a love interest. Jun Se oppa literally has everyting, kind heart, compassion, intelligence, successfull career (owns a high end restaurant), good family connections, great looks and fashion sense, admiration and love of all who come to contact with him yet he loses the girl to Hwan who is less handsome, same level of intelligence, has loads of emotional baggage and only really liked by another girl (who has deep emotional issues). Anyway once again I had a ball with this one. 

Vicious

Vicious turned out to be one of those sad occasions a reader sometimes had to experience. It is a well written, well told story which is very interesting from more than one point of view. However I just couldn't connect with it for some reason. It is not you, book, it is me. 

Pinocchio

Pinocchio was not really a drama I was interested in since I don't particularlarly care for the lead actors. But I decided to give it a go and liked it a lot. The main couple is not the one in the photo btw but I liked it. Lee Jong Seuk was not really a leading man I liked since I think his face is too artifical (that nose screams plastic) but he actually is a good actor and since his character is a nice guy with tons of goodness I liked him very much. Park Shin Hye is also not an actress I like (the only exception probably is You Are Beautiful) but she was ok and likable. All in all I liked this drama and was properly entertained. But it was not like "I need to watch this NOW" or "I don't need sleep" levels of liking.

Fractured

Fractured turned out to be as good as I hoped it would be. I love Karin Slaughter novels and truly enjoyed this one (Very happy that I already purchased the third one in the series at an audible two for one deal, yay) 

Enchanted

Enchanted I can't believe that stupid Bein Channel has censored True Love's Kiss. I'm not kidding it was kind of horrible for them to do that.  

A Prisoner of Birth

A Prisoner of Birth ended up being a decent read. And that is all there is to it. 

IQ

 IQ turned out to be a nod to Sherlock Holmes but with a nice makeover making it in 21st century L.A with a Dudson instead of a Watson. I really liked it. Most probably because Sullivan Jones did a great job of reading it and this is probably one of the novels you'd better read in audio format.
