#Rocktober #YouGiveLoveABadName

I know, another Gemmell. And as a fan of Arthurian retelling, l could pick quite a few poisonous interpretation of the relation between Arthur and Guinevre. This is just one of my favourite

#Rocktober #YouGiveLoveABadName "You promise me heaven, then put me through Hell." Literally. ?If you have read the book (or seen the movie) of this 1967 horror classic, you know how Guy Woodhouse gives love a bad name--all in the pursuit of fame, wealth, and power, and at the expense of his wife, Rosemary. If you haven't, this is a good spooky October book to read or film to watch.?

MaleficentBookDragon One of my all time Halloween favs. The book and the movie. I even read the sequel 7y

Twilight, #yougiveloveabadname. Meyer, you give writing a bad name, too. (I have feelings about this 🤷🏻‍♀️)

Honorable mentions to Daniel Cleaver, Cathy & Heathcliff, and Romeo & Juliet.

#rocktober #YouGiveLoveABadName This book was so difficult a read because of the subject matter it portrayed, it certainly made you stop and think what goes on Behind Closed Doors in the name of love, for love read domination, control and abuse! Certainly brought strong emotions to the fore for me!!!
Most definitely gives love a bad name!
Another one that doubles for #threewordtitles #riotgram

Cinfhen Well played👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻#multitasking 👻 7y

#Rocktober oh Ingrid, #YouGiveLoveABadName and you're a pretty crappy mom, too! This was a really twisted story of complicated relationships. Gorgeous evocative prose and lyrical writing but dark subject matter.

tricours I read this in Swedish many years ago, but something about it annoyed me, it felt so fake (perhaps a bad translation). And isn't there something about them being Vikings or Scandinavians or something like that? I remember cringing at that. 7y
Cinfhen I do recall some Viking reference in the book🤔maybe the book didn't translate well because in English the writing was impressive @tricours 7y
diovival This one is another long-time resident of my TBR shelf. I feel like I need to be in just the right head space to approach. 7y

AmandaL I saw the movie years ago, and have wanted to read the book since.I hope to get to it eventually. 7y
mcipher This was such a good book, writing-wise. But not likable characters. 7y
Cinfhen True @mcipher a good book with "bad" people ~ go for it @diovival @TrishB @AmandaL Should I watch the movie??? 7y
Wife Book is so much better than the movie! One of my favorites. 7y
Cinfhen Thanks @Wife I'll skip the movie💜 7y
AmandaL @Cinfhen It's been so long since I've seen it. If @Wife says to skip it, I'd go with her advice. 🙂 7y
Reviewsbylola This is one of those books I've always meant to read but never have. 7y
Cinfhen You should @Reviewsbylola although the more I think about it, you might hate it 🤷‍♀️ 7y

By turns a miserable lie, not for you my love, and very nice but maybe in the next world. Remember Morrissey as he was, and not the racist fuckwit he's become.

arlenefinnigan @TrishB yeah. why the fuck did he think it was appropriate to start chatting shit about the UKIP leadership vote on 6 Music? 7y
arlenefinnigan @Cinfhen it's a great word. See also: shitehawk. 7y
