It’s mid-winter, a
time when Christmas is far behind us and spring feels as though it’s never
going to get here. I know I find this time of year the hardest. It’s cold, it’s
snowy, and I spend too much time huddle inside.
It’s a wonderful time
of years to go to movies, which I do. I love to take myself out to the theatre,
usually to the afternoon showing as there aren’t as many people around, and
settle in and enjoy being taken away for a couple of hours. I tend to sit the
third row back from the front. Yes, I’m a creature of habit. I also never
bother with snacks, as I usually take myself out for lunch before I see the
movie since the theatre is in the local mall.
Lately, I’ve seen
several fantastic movies.
The 15:17 to Paris,
a movie about three Americans who discover a terrorist plot aboard a train
while in France. It’s a true story, but what makes it even more interesting is
that the three men actually play themselves in the movie. It’s a reminder that
we are not defined by our failures and that ordinary people can do
extraordinary things.
The Shape of Water
highlights the strange and beautiful relationship between a lonely, mute
janitor and an amphibious creature behind held in captivity. It’s set at a top
secret research facility in the 1960s. While there are some gratuitous nude
scenes at the beginning, the love story is beautiful and the storyline makes
you consider the definition of monsters, and that it takes more than a surface
appearance to be one. It really is what’s on the inside that matters.
Black Panther is
the latest movie from Marvel and lives up to the hype. T’Challa returns home to
take his rightful place as King of Wakanda, but secrets from the past and
threats from the present collide to place not only himself but also his country
in danger. This movie is visually stunning, has a complex storyline, and the
women are FIERCE!
While I love going
to the movies, the mid-winter is also a wonderful time to read. And if you’re
looking for a book, Wolf in her Soul is on sale for a very limited time for
only 99-cents. If you haven’t checked it out yet, now might be the perfect
time.
Wolf in her Soul
Salvation Pack,
Book 8
Detective Reece
Gallagher has spent the last decade working as a cop in Chicago so he can
search for her—the red-haired woman who haunts his dreams.
He’s just about ready to give up and go home to Salvation, North Carolina, when
he finally finds her. But she’s the assault victim on a case he’s working on,
and there’s a full-blooded werewolf who wants her dead. He needs to keep her
safe and convince her she’s his mate.
Hannah Burdette has a secret she’s never told anyone. But there is someone who knows who—or rather, what—she is. There’s a stalker after her who plans to rid the world of her “impure” blood. When the cop she meets turns out to be a werewolf and claims she doesn’t have to be alone anymore, she’s wary. But where better to hide from a bloodthirsty hunter than in the middle of North Carolina with the security of a pack surrounding her?
