Book review: Nine Nights of Fogh by Lynnette Roman #romance #Christian @RomanLynnette

Nine Nights of Fogh
Rhapsody has a tragic past and feels that she cannot love anyone because of what happened to her as a child.  She has never experienced romantic love, although she does have a close friend she confides in.
She is a school teacher and many years ago she taught a boy named Jeremy who developed a crush on her. He has been besotted with her ever since and when he is 33 he comes back to their town to express his love.  He comes across as very appealing, with a muscled physique and green eyes.  In the opening scene, Jeremy and Rhapsody have a rough, but passionate encounter and she is scared away.
The story is of his persistence and her struggle to accept his affections.
I found it to be a beautiful story as it went along, although I did find the opening scene too rough to be romantic.  Also I though the name, Rhapsody, meaning rapture / ecstasy to be an unusual choice for the character.
 I found the Christian element to be quite touching and appropriate to the story. I would say the story would also appeal to those other than Christian.
I thought the engagement with Houston Pratt was quite intriguing and Rhapsody's relationship with him was a key part of the story for me.
I rate Nine Nights of Fogh as highly recommended.

Review: Wonder Woman. The best super hero movie for a long time #WonderWoman #movie #review

So much has been said about a female super hero lead and a female director, girl power yada yada. Seriously folks, who cares? I sure don't. A good movie is a good movie and I reckon this one is mighty fine.  Sure it has some world-building plot and character development which may seem a little slow in places to the adrenaline junkies, but I found it well done.
​There is plenty of eye candy for all with gorgeous Gal Gadot and hunky Chris Pine wearing nothing but a few drops of water. The scenery and cinematography are visually splendid.
​I went with my 15 year-old comic reading son and he said it was regrettable how much they differed from the comics, especially with the Gods and Chris Pine's character. He thought her powers weren't quite true to the comics, such as her forcefield or telekinetic powers. He also said that the action scenes were awesome, so I'm pleased he came along with me and enjoyed it. I also saw it with hubby who said much the same thing.

For me, it was a great all-rounder with lots of heart, relatable characters and really cool action. I found the backstory of Diana (Gadot) growing up with the Amazons on the hidden isle of Themyscira (I hope I spelled that correctly) all quite wonderful and it brought a cool fantasy edge to the movie for me. I guess she's a bit like a female version of Thor.  I'll just step back and let the DC and Marvels fans argue that one out LOL.
I've been a Gadot fan for years from the Fast & Furious movies.  I was pleasantly surprised at her emotional depth in the role and such a lovely chemistry with Chris Pine.
​Also the battle scenes and horsing riding action were fantastic. The lasso work was well done.  5 stars from me.

Gee..I hope you all get this meme. It's a good one

​Until next time, happy days, from Kasper :)
