Sun Trap | Rachel Wolf
post image

An entertaining thrill ride from the start, this was an enjoyable read. Sun Trap follows a Hollywood movie crew to the Abu Dhabi desert, where the filmmaking gets deadly. This is one of the books with constant action. I was invested in the story although I did not feel connected to the characters at all. Especially after the half way mark there was twist after twist after twist. Also, is this not one of the most gorgeous covers you've ever seen?

Yuki_Onna Thank you, Netgalley and Aria & Aries, for the chance to read a copy in exchange for an honest review!

Glamorous Notions | Megan Chance

Mehso-so

Glamorous Notions had some fascinating historical details, especially about the hidden recordings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima and the use of X-ray sheets for music. But overall, the plot didn‘t go anywhere and failed to keep me engaged. I found it more interesting in parts than as a whole.

I can't possibly pick favorites from this list. So random thoughts, instead:

🩵 Up is my favorite movie ever. It warms my icy heart. I cry 3 times during it to this day.
🩵 Philip Seymour Hoffman was one of my favorite actors. I'm so sad he died so young.
🩵 When Pulp Fiction came out, our local art theatre showed it during their Oscar series, and a bunch of elderly ladies who were regulars walked out in disgust. 🤣🫠

dabbe I gulp-sob snot out of my nose every time I watch the opening of UP! 😭 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩵💙🩵 4w
dabbe Fab score, too! 🤩🤩🤩 4w
lil1inblue @dabbe Yeah, the opening scene is definitely an ugly cry for me, too. 😭 And the score is because the era covers my high school years, when I had a crush on a boy who wanted to become Stanley Kubrick. 😂 He broke my teenaged heart, but he also introduced me to so many good films! 😉 4w
dabbe @lil1inblue At least one good thing came out of it! 🤗 4w

The beginning of this year was such a bad reading slump for me! I finally feel like I‘m getting back into my reading groove. I am fascinated by the history of Hollywood and this book is not definitely not disappointing! It‘s amazing how truly small the industry is and all the machinations that go on behind the scenes. I‘ve always found Valley of the Dolls as a book and a movie to be such interesting examples of a moment in time.

Wonderful! I will have to plan an entire day for watching Al‘s 🎥 ‘cause somehow, I‘ve not seen many of them😳

I absolutely love listening to autobiographies/memoirs that are read by the author(s). I‘m always fascinated & intrigued by their life experiences.

MemoirsForMe Agreed! Love when celebs narrate their own books and need to see more Pacino films after this great read. 🙌🏻 1mo
