Welcome to my annual 12 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS! 

If you’re new to this – here’s how it works:

1.   Each day from December 1 through December 12 I will put up a new giveaway HERE on my website with instructions on how to enter, a detailed description of the prize, and some stuff about the book or series. Each giveaway is different and each has ONE WINNER. MY GIVEAWAYS ARE ALWAYS OPEN INTERNATIONAL 

2.   Each giveaway runs UNTIL DECEMBER 13.

3.   Winners are CHOSEN and NOTIFIED on December 14. I will be notifying winners USING THE EMAIL USED TO COMMENT ON THIS BLOG – and all winners will BE LISTED AT THE TOP OF EACH GIVEAWAY POST HERE ON MY WEBSITE on December 14.

4.   Winners have 24 hours to respond, then another winner will be chosen.

5.   ALL PRIZES WILL BE MAILED ON DECEMBER 15.  If I’m waiting on a winner to respond and they miss the December 15 mail date, that prize will be mailed when I get around to it. I live in the middle of nowhere so a trip to the post office is a “thing” for me. 🙂 So make sure you’re checking for winners on the 14th.

6.   I will send newsletters announcing giveaways on December 1, December 6, December 12, and a Winner newsletter on December 14. I NEVER send this many newsletters in a month so sorry if that feels spammy. 

7.   You can also FOLLOW MY BLOG. I will also make a blog post HERE announcing ALL WINNERS on the 14th. If you want to follow this blog there will be a form at the bottom of each post to do that. Then you get an email when I POST HERE. I don’t do that often – December is the exception because of the 12 Days and my yearly “Wrap-up” post.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.

THAT’S IT! I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY THIS!

The world is INSANE right now so I’m just trying to spread some cheer and give back to all of you who support me and enjoy the stories I create.

NOW LET’S GET ON TO THE FIRST GIVEAWAY!

IN EACH POST I WILL HIGHLIGHT A BOOK

TODAY’S BOOK HIGHLIGHT IS THE SAVAGE RAGE OF FALLEN GODS

THE SAVAGE RAGE OF FALLEN GODS
Savage Falls #1
Dark Fantasy Romance
Paranormal Monster Romance

 

Welcome to Savage Falls, where the men have horns, doors have agendas, and the God of Love will never fall in love.

Hate is his soulmate. His soulmate is hate.

Love. When mutual, it’s Heaven on Earth. When one-sided, it can tear you apart.

There is no greater weapon than the heartsick soul. That is the power I wield, for I am the God of Love. No one has power like me. No one can poison a heart and pollute a mind the way I can. That is why the gods kicked me out. That is why they made me fall.

But then a door appears on the side of my hill. The opportunity to ruin kings and destroy gods is mine once more. I can crush the whole wicked world if I can just get back the power I lost.

But this magic of mine requires sacrifice.

And now, I have to decide… am I willing to pay the price?

Savage Rage of Fallen Gods is a story of a broken man. It is a tale of regret, promises, and how revenge can darken a god’s soul. It is a new start of a spinoff series by New York Times bestselling author, JA Huss, writing as KC Cross.

The Savage Rage of Fallen Gods is a story of a broken heart. It is a tale of regret, and promises, and how revenge can darken a god’s soul. It is a standalone book in a brand new series by New York Times bestselling author, JA Huss, writing as KC Cross.

WHAT IS THE BEST MOVIE/TV SHOW YOU SAW IN 2023?

I’m asking because I’m rewatching Gossip Girl, that’s how much of a dry spell I’m in. I think a lot of what’s coming out lately is pretty shitty. But I did just see that movie The Creator and while I would not call it great, I did watch it all the way through and would give it a 6.5 out of 10. Which is a very good score for me these days. Usually I just quit like 20 minute in. So I would recommend The Creator.


Here’s the trailer if you’ve never heard of this one.

    1. I think I watched Troy, Gladiator, The Last Kingdom, Reacher, The Witcher, Vampire Diaries, The Originals, and I think Elvis was the last movie I saw in the Theater.

      Reply

  3. I am not good at even turning the TV on. I’d rather sit in silence with my audiobook. When the husband turns on TV I might pay attention to the aliens and space talk about worm holes.

    Reply

  6. The best TV show I watched this year was wolf pack with Sarah Michelle Gellar it was gripping and the suspense was high. Merry Christmas everyone thanks so much ♥️

    Reply

  12. I’m usually a big movie girl but this year I’ve found myself just sticking something on in the background and reading a book or listening to an audio book. However I did really enjoy sex education on netflix which is a more newer series I’ve watched. I am also rewatching the vampire diaries which never fails to grab my attention haha

    Reply

    1. I’m more of a reader or audio book listener. TV is just background noise to me but I do follow the power universe series on Starz by 50 cents. My brother in law got me hooked years ago and I’ve been following it ever since

      Reply

  15. I’ve just finished the new Face Off season, which I binge-watch with my daughter. The best things I’ve watched in 2023 would probably be Troll for movie and 9-1-1 (both original and Lonestar). I know, I’m so behind, but I prefer to read.

    Reply

    1. My favourite TV show for 2023 was an Australian show called Scrublands. The book by Chris Hammer was brilliant. A journalist visits a small town to do a story about the town a year on from the local priest shots five guys, then is killed by the policeman. So many unanswered questions? That the journalist want answers to.

      Reply

  17. I finally watched Ted Lasso. It was sickeningly sweet at times, but still super fun to watch. Sexy, sporty, all the things. ❤️⚽👠

    Reply

  18. My favourite show that I watched this year is Shining Vale. It is a comedy/horror or ghost story or possibly mental health related story. Courtney Cox and Mira Sorvino star in this hilarious series. It’s a bit cheesy at first but as I watched it kept my attention. The darker the plot somehow the show also became funnier.

    Reply

  19. I’m a Yellowstone fan on TV. I usually don’t see movies in the theater but my sons took me to see Barbie for my birthday. I really liked it but the best part was being with my family.

    Reply

  21. I just watched spider man into the spider verse and I really like the movies was very good . But I’m re-watching Supernatural for like the 100 time I just love the show so much
    Thanks

  22. We went and saw The Haunted Mansion. It was good and we all enjoyed it! Ps. I love this book for today’s giveaway!

    Reply

  23. I don’t watch a whole lot of TV. This year I watched the final season of The Discovery of Witches and the movie Red, White and Royal Blue. Loved both of them.

    Reply

  25. Queen Charlotte on Netflix it was about the Queen in Bridgerton it was a separate series and so well done . I loved it

    Reply

  27. I agree with you about TV these days!! Somehow my man got me watching Naruto, which was never even a consideration before. But there is something to be said about having an open mind, because I’ve actually enjoyed it! I’d give it a 7 out of 10. Points deducted for unnecessary repetitive scenes (I’m sure they had their reasons). But the story and character building is really good and now has me asking when we can watch the next episodes instead of him lol!

    Reply

  30. Oh man this is tough but I really loved good girls and I’m so sad it is not being renewed and I am impatiently waiting for the next season of bridgerton!! I am hooked!!😍😍

    Reply

  31. Good Omens, s2. (Altho Loki s2 was really awesome!!) Ever since the miniseries ran, I’ve rewatched it maybe 30 times (at least), talk abt it endlessly on Reddit, and finally watch both fanvids and fanfiction. It takes up WAY too much of my time (which I don’t really have) & it even leads me into watching all of David Tennant & Michael Sheen’s other works. I’m positive I’ll have plenty to do before season 3 arrives!!

    Reply

  32. I’m not a big TV or movie person – usually destress with a book. I’ve been meaning to watch Red White and Royal Blue since I enjoyed the book. I get sucked into Food Network when I’m visiting my mom since she usually has it on.

    Reply

  33. Old Dads was HILARIOUS! It kind of fizzles out toward the end of the season but the first few episodes are totally worth it.

    Reply

  34. I rewatched a lot if the old episodes of All In The Family. Ironic since Norman Lear died this past Tuesday. It was a great show with excellent writing.

    Reply

  35. No theater movies for us this year. We were a little late to the Ted Lasso party but we binged all the seasons. We enjoyed it. Most days/evenings our television is off.
    More reading and less watching.

    Reply

  37. It was rough year for TV shows and movies, there weren’t that really held my attention. Although, I thoroughly enjoyed Reacher on Amazon video, that was really good. I tend to mostly stick to the Food Network and all the shows on there.

    Reply

  41. Good Trouble on Hulu!! It’s soooooooo good! It’s also a spin off of the show The Fosters which has a bunch of seasons and was amazing also.

    Reply

  44. I recently started streaming White Collar.
    It resolves around a art thief / con man working alongside a detective to solve crime.

    Both the conman and the officer are so charismatic and the on screen chemistry between them is super intense.

    This is light hearted, witty, funny, heartwarming and intelligent.
    An actual masterpiece in my opinion!

    Reply

    1. I still refuse to watch the last season because I don’t want it to be over, so I just re-watch seasons 1-5. 🤣🤣🤣Such a great show and definitely one of my all time favorites.

      Reply

  45. I cannot say that I was impressed by much this year I think the strikes really did in the quality of everything out there. There really has not been anything that stands out to me.

    Reply

  46. I watched Queen Charlotte and loved it (I love Bridgerton). My husband and I binged Yellowstone and LOVED it.

    We don’t go out and watch a lot of movies (stream them instead) but we liked John Wick 4, The Equalizer 3 (who doesn’t love Denzel), A Haunting in Venice. My adult kids loved the new Hunger Games movie.

    Reply

  47. I really enjoyed Elemental. I have learned not to expect much from movies going in and then I can be pleasantly surprised when I do enjoy them.

    Reply

  50. My favorite show this year was The Diplomat. I LOVED her. I loved him. Stupendous acting and such insider writing.

    Reply

  52. I could be in the minority but I really enjoyed The Fall of the House of Usher on Netflix. I didn’t realize until the mini series was over that it’s a remake/spin-off of an old movie. It was suspense with a hint of humor and a sprinkle of thriller. Loved it!

    Reply

  55. I really liked the new show Will Trent. I love Crime drama shows and this was a good new one. He has dyslexia and never learned how to overcome it while in school I’m guessing, so he works around it. But he’s an excellent detective despite it but not so good at letting people in his life.

    Reply

  57. I absolutely loved both Lessons in Chemistry and Black Cake. Usually movie/tv book adaptations are not better than the books but these were both incredible!

    Reply

  59. I am a creature of habit…. so I tend to rewatch series when i am not listening to a book. so nothing new here but I did introduce my teen to the original Charmed and NCIS, Bones and Criminal minds!

    Reply

  60. My husband I started watching Suits on Netflix! We LOVE it. We are almost done with Season 8, so only 1 more Season to go. If you all haven’t watched this, add to your list. The other shows we really enjoyed at the beginning of the year (2022-23 Season) was Ghosts and So Help Me Todd!

    Reply

  61. I haven’t watched movies for years. But my daughter and I decided to watch a Halloween movie together since we love scary stuff. We watched Tucker and Dale vs Evil. It was so funny we couldn’t stop laughing. It was definitely a dark humor but we loved it.

    Reply

  64. I finally watched Yellowstone. Yes I know I’m late to that party 😀. It was good. I also have been watching documentaries.

    Reply

  65. I’ve only watched series on Netflix this year, one of the best was Queen Charlotte. I was on holiday in Scotland with my best friend and made her sit through the whole series in one night except for the last episode which we watched eating breakfast the following day. Absolutely loved it ❤️

    Reply

  66. Not a movie, but a play. My daughter & I went & saw The Curse Child, it was very good & the special effects were brilliant

    Reply

  67. This year I discovered a show called The Boys and I’m obsessed! There is a new season coming next year so I’ll booking looking out for that.

    Reply

  70. I don’t watch TV much. My husband will turn it on but I’m normally reading. When I do watch it’s local news or Forensic Files type shows. 🤣 We did go see the 4th John Wick movie earlier this year. Lots of action & nothing wrong with watching Keanu Reeves do ANYTHING 😉

    Reply

  71. I rarely have time to watch tv these days, and my kids typically take over when I do. However when I do have a free moment I’ve been putting on Brooklyn 99. We also took our kids to see Elemental this year, and we all loved it.

    Reply

  73. I’m not a big tv person but my family loves to watch the marvel and Star Wars stuff. I tend to binge cooking/baking shows myself.

    Reply

  74. One of my favorite shows this year has been The Crown. I love historical/ period shows so The new season of The Crown has been awesome. Also, The Guilded Age and Queen Charlotte.

    Reply

  76. I would agree that there hasn’t been many movies/tv shows that have grabbed my attention. I did enjoy some of the Star Wars series that came out this year. I’ve been doing more reading/audiobooks since there isn’t much to watch.

    Reply

  87. I actually enjoyed The Bridgertons. I watched the series early this year.
    I haven’t seen any movies; other than the Mario movie this year.
    Hubby and I have been going thru Star Trek TV series; started with Next Gen, then Deep Space 9, Original and now we are watching Voyager. I feel like such a nerd 🤓

    Reply

  91. I’ve seen a lot of movies this year. The ones that stand out the most were The Covenant and The Sound of Freedom. Both were super intense.

    Reply

  92. I lived The Company You Keep with Milo Ventimiglia. What a great show. Loved the premise of the weekly plots and the actors. It was developing perfectly and then it wasn’t renewed for a 2nd season. I was so bummed.

    Reply

  94. The last year has been crazy so TV has been minimal. But I was sick over the summer and in beed I watched Emily in Paris and really enjoyed the lightheartedness of it.

    Reply

  98. I don’t watch much tv, I prefer reading to watching, but I
    did view the Crown episodes and enjoyed that somewhat.

    Reply

  99. I don’t watch a lot of TV or movies anymore. I did enjoy Yellowstone because we watch it as a family. I really want to watch Oppenheimer, I hear it is amazing.

    Reply

  100. The Fall of the House of Usher. Mike Flanagan is brilliant. The story structure was fascinating from a craft standpoint and as a Poe nerd, the way he wove disparate stories together into a cohesive whole hit just right.

    Reply

  104. I watched a foreign film on Netflix earlier this year called ‘Through my Window’. Warning this movie has subtitles. I thought it was worth the watch and will be watching it again at some point in 2024.

    Reply

  105. I don’t watch much tv, my nose is always buried in a book, my go to tv show is always friends, and grey anatomy. I did catch a few movies on Netflix and I just signed up for passionflix to catch the movies that were originally books there. If you haven’t done that yet, I recommend it.

    Reply

  108. I am HOOKED on Silo! I just finished binge watching it on Apple. Rebecca Ferguson is awesome.
    (Special mention to Only Murders in the Building – so cute)

    Reply

  109. Okay, so this is a guilty pleasure, but Hubs and I really got a kick out of Renfield with Nicolas Cage. I’m not normally a fan of his, but this was just fun with a bit of gore tossed in.

    Reply

  111. I’m late to the party on this one but I am in love with Jane the Virgin! My daughter introduced it to me early summer & we binged what we could before she left for college. I cannot wait for another binge night with her when she comes home next week ♥️

    Reply

  114. Honestly this year was a hot mess for TV and Movies. I haven’t watched much of either. Been more of a book person this year. My TBR has shrank considerably

    Reply

  120. I haven’t been to the cinema this year and haven’t watched many films, BUT, I discovered that a series had been made based on Isaac Asimov’s Foyndation books. Read these when I was supposed to be studying for my finals at university many, many years ago! The series is absolutely brilliant. Great cast, costuming, stunning visuals and fantastic acting. I have been enthralled 😍

    Reply

  122. If I am going to be perfectly honest, there hasn’t been a single movie or TV series I watched this year that I can say, “OMG! I loved it and I want to watch it again!” I thinkbi am going to have to go old school and say I would much rather read a physical book or an ebook, or listen to my favorite authors and narrators in audiobooks. I can go anywhere and do just about anything and listen to a book. I have discovered some awesome “new to me” authors this year as well as some of my favorites who released new books this year. I have also listened to my favorite narrators read books I probably would not have given a second look at, had I not loved their voice.

    Reply

  125. Wow I dont know. I read more than watch TV except for soccer I love watching Real Madrid play. But I do binge shows like Wheel of Time and Upload and Amazon Prime. I am a die hard Fast and furious so really enjoyed 9. Of course loved Barbie and rewatched Legally Blonde. Night Agent was good too! A lot of stuff I just watch to zone and dont really pay attention.

    Reply

  128. I don’t watch a lot of TV and I honestly can’t remember the last movie I watched but my son got me hooked on Suits, it’s really good. I’m finishing up the last season of Good Girls only because I’ve seen the other seasons so might as well finish it up.

    Reply

  129. The Night Agent on Netflix and the latest Fast and Furious. I also enjoyed Leo (cartoon) on Netflix. So cute.

    Reply

  130. The Dial of Destiny an Indiana Jones movie was surprisingly good. It was very nostalgic, actually teared up because it will probably be Harrison Fords last one.

    Reply

  132. I watched Loki season 1&2. I thought it was really good. I actually semi binged the Marvel movies they were very good as well. I do have a few more to watch though. Thank you again for this opportunity to possibly win a prize. I have not read this book yet but it is on my list.

    Reply

    1. I struggle to watch TV or movies as I find they don’t hold my attention for long. However, I have just enjoyed watching a show about the Gunpowder Plot called ‘Coubtdown to Treason’ (in the UK). I also enjoy watching the docseries policing shows – particularly ‘The Met’ and ’24 hours in Police Custody’.

      Reply

  140. The English, with Emily Blunt. Beautiful little mini series. Wish they could have figured a way to extend this one, well written and the perfect actors to portray the characters.

    Reply

  141. I had a lot of time earlier this year to binge watch stuff but I think my favorite was Wednesday I really hope they do more seasons of it!!!

    Reply

  142. I haven’t watched much television since I discovered audiobooks in 2018, but I broke down and subscribed to Netflix to entertain my youngest brother when he came to stay with me earlier this year. Long story short…I ended up binging all four seasons of “Stranger Things” in less than a week, and I will resubscribe to Netflix when they release the final season.

    Reply

  145. The only new movie I saw this year was the new Trolls movie. It was what the twins wanted to do for their birthday. Nothing makes you feel old like recognizing all the late 90s/early 2000s boy band references that your kids don’t understand what you are laughing about.

    Reply

  149. I don’t really watch TV and the only movie I saw last year was the new Little Mermaid movie with my granddaughter.

    Reply

  150. This is a hard question because it’s hard for me to find a show I like and even if I do my memory doesn’t retain it until I see at least clips of it so to ask me out of the blue I have a terrible time remembering. On tv in the spring there was a TV series I think called Endgame and it was pretty good. Each week a woman would tell a story to an FBI agent to help them (and her) solve her riddle. It was good.
    I watched Don’t Worry, Darling (a movie) and it was good, too. I think it could have been a limited series and been really good.
    Those are the ones I remember enjoying.

    Reply

  154. We took our son to see Super Mario Brothers this year and I don’t know if he had more fun or we did, but I think that was the best one for us. So many great memories for us growing up, and now making memories with him 🙂

    Reply

  156. Man I binge so many things. I really liked yellow jackets because it was so fucked up I couldn’t stop watching it. I also just watched two Australian movies based on true events that I really enjoyed. Dead for a Dollar and Molly Johnson. Otherwise I am just rewatching my favorites like How I Met Your Mother or Happy Endings.

    Reply

  160. I don’t think I have watched a movies since Too Gun sequel came out and I don’t watch much TV just read all the time but my husband plays The Office on repeat so that is the only tv show I have watched much of this year.

    Reply

  161. There are lots of movies that I saw and loved but my favorites have to go back to the ones I like and watch every year at this time, like The Sound of Music and Little Women and Little Men. Also this year would be That was Then This is Now, The Outsiders, Newsies, And Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.

    Reply

  165. I don’t watch much television at the moment, will rather spend my time reading. But I do remember watching and enjoying The Night Agent earlier this year.

  166. Below is list of movies/tv shows I’ve enjoyed watching this year 🙂
    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

    Fast X
    My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3
    Bridgerton

  169. I was addicted to Will Trent and So Help me Todd. I love quirky characters. The writer’s strike was devastating.

    Reply

  170. I didn’t really watch many movies this year. The show that stands out the most to me is Ted Lasso. My husband and I watched the show together and got some laughs out of it.

    Reply

  175. Gosh, I watch so little TV, it’s hard to come up with something. I loved Yellowstone, so if it ever comes back on, that would be it for me. I also love The Andy Griffith Show. My husband and I watch an episode most nights. It’s still funny as hell and usually has me laughing out loud!

    Reply

  177. My favorite is The Andy Griffith Show in any year. I also like It’s a Wonderful Life for my favorite movie of the year. I like classic television shows and movies. I try to watch new shows and movies, but they’re just horrible, from the writing to the acting.

    Reply

  178. I can’t pick one single thing that stands out to me from this past year. If you knew me, that would be considered almost sacrilegious – the TV always on in my house. I have been in a slight fugue state for a while. Now that I think on it, it’s been since 02/14/2022, when my mom passed. Ugh.

    Reply

  179. My brain immediately said Avatar way of the water, but then I realized that was last year….

    -The Last of Us
    -Pokerface- unexpectedly awesome!
    – The Handmaid’s Tale is completely binge worthy, seriously good!
    – Witcher!! I mean Henry Cavill alone but with those eyes🔥🔥🔥 Hello!

  180. Best movie I seen this year would have to be.. Mission Impossible; Dead Reckoning

    Best tv series I’ve watched has to be.. Wednesday

  181. On Peacock i enjoyed Twisted Metal, its based on the video game but has a few little nostalgic elements to it too.

    Reply

  184. I feel like most tv shows aren’t what they use to be and it costs too much to go to the theater. So this year I started watching old tv shows. Even got my husband to watch. One of my all time favs is Grey’s Anatomy. Of course we rewatched WKRP IN Cincinnati’s Thanksgiving turkey drop.

    Reply

  187. Honestly, I LOVED the Barbie movie! That was actually the first movie I saw in theaters since COVID and then I saw it 4 times! With different ppl everytime but still, I never go see movies more than once in the theater. I thought it had a great message as well as being funny, I thouroghly enjoyed it 🙂

    Reply

  188. Best movie I’ve watched this year is i i
    I am Otto. Was able to get free tickets to see it and it awesome

    Reply

  191. The movies I’ve enjoyed so far this year are the Hallmark Holiday movies. Too expensive to go to a movie theater. I enjoy watching them with family.

    Reply

  193. Two series that I have thoroughly enjoyed are Black Cake (Hulu) and Fellow Travelers (Paramount+). Both are based on books of the same name. Black Cake is a gut-wrenching multi-racial/multi-cultural family story. Fellow Travelers follows the love affair between two men spanning the 1950s – 1980s. They are superb!

    Reply

  208. I don’t watch much tv but I’ve called in love with American Monster. It’s pretty interesting how the cops figure out the bad dudes try to get away with murder.
    I get to watch this while my kids are at school when they’re home it’s YouTube and how to play Roblox or whatever annoying game.

  226. We haven’t been watching anything new at all. So busy this year, we’re literally just been rewatching our old movies and tv shows. I binged on Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, Bones, Phryne Fisher Mysteries, Sex in the City and Xena, Warrior Princess. We had a blast at Halloween with all of our Halloween tv episodes and movies, especially the Halloweentown and Hotel Transylvania movies. We totally cheated when we only watched the fights in Karate KIds 1 – 4 but it was so fun! There’s other shows and movies we’ve seen but I honestly forgot how funny the original Major League and Necessary Roughness movies were until we rewatched them. 🙂

  227. Before I read some of the other comments Wheel of Time came to mind. I did really like Night Agent. And Netflix had a movie with Gal Gadot that was twisty and action packed. One more, Luther: The Fallen Sun also on Netflix was twisty and had a Uber evil villain.

I loved it so much that I’m sad there aren’t more episodes. I loved the personal growth of so many characters, the underlying positivity, and the humor. It just really resonated with me, and was such a stark contrast to all the crap in the daily news cycle that we are bombarded with in increasing frequency.

Imagine my surprise when I saw a commercial for season 5. The Crown. The Princess Diana storyline gutted me. Our house is a Marvel Universe home. Our son’s name is Storm (he is 26). No Way Home was a favorite in our house. I loved seeing all 3 of the Spidarmen together. I was excited about the Barbie movie. It was okay, but I love the positive woman power messages. Let’s face it, Weird Barbie was amazing.

  292. I mostly listen to audiobooks or read, so I rarely turn my TV on anymore. Here lately I’ve only turned it on to watch college football. Other than that, the only shows I really watched this year were Yellowstone and Wolf Pack on Paramount+. Yellowstone is probably the best show I’ve seen since Son’s of Anarchy or Game of Thrones. Sad it has to end, but the good ones usually do.

  293. I actually asked my husband if there was anything really good this year that we watched. Nope, nothing that he could remember, and he’s good with the movie stuff. Most of the junk we saw this year we turned off after a few minutes of us looking at each other and asking, “what the hell is this”. We watched a movie that was from 2018, Cock Blockers. This was very funny due to the stupidity, but at least I laughed out loud. Storyline was ridiculous, but I just didn’t care anymore. How sad is that?

I have to say this series has pulled my head out of my books and have fueled a few different debates, discussions on what would you do if put in these situations, and I know I could not last too long before I am tapping out looking for food that I don’t have to kill, clean and prepare with minimal supplies, dependable heat, and a hot shower!

I also liked the Netflix show Wednesday, so I’m looking forward to season two for both. Also, Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi was pretty good as well.

But you know what? It’s actually one of the best ways to destress. You already know things will work out for the best, and there are no real issues that can’t be resolved unlike in real life. It’s just helps us have a nice, relaxing night. And frankly, that’s what everyone needs right now. I hope you’re enjoying your nights as well. Happy Holidays! 🎄💕

  445. I really enjoyed two shows that were made from books. The Wilderness and Daisy Jones and the Six. Both are on Prime.

  446. The best movie this year……. Well, I do have a 20 year old with Autism so I have seen Wish (it was okay), the Marvels (I actually enjoyed this), the Paw Patrol Movie (always a classic) and the Trolls movie. I am trying think of a non- kid movie I watched. I did just see Sound of Freedom, great movie- such a sad and horrfying topic- A haunting in Venice was also a good who-dun-it.

    TV shows, I did love Yellowstone. We watched Survivor for the first time in year, now I can’t decide it I like the actual show, or it was the one time a week I had my husband and both boys with me- that was probably it. And the game play has changed in the past 10 years.

    Oh, House of the Dragon. I am really enjoying the whole Game of Thrones thing.

  450. I finished watching “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”, fifth and final season, and was pleased how they wrapped up the story. I would definitely recommend this series. I also rewatched “Fleabag” because it’s such wicked fun!

  451. Oh man! There’s a lot of good movies I have watched (and rewatched). Night Agent, Yellowstone, the John Wick saga, the Fast and the Furious saga, the Equalizer saga, and Bones to name a few. My favorite Christmas movie so far is called A Country Christmas on prime. This movie had me crying! Great movie.

  454. I can’t tell you the last time I watched anything on TV. Two movies we went to this year, that were better than I anticipated, were Equalizer 3 and the last John Wicke. I prefer reading or listening to music when I’m home.

  487. As far as series, or in this case series world with spinoffs- I’d have to say Yellowstone along with 1823 and 1923.

    As far as a movie, I was intrigued, horrified and turned on all throughout the movie Saltburn. It was great.

  523. I’m not a big TV person. I generally watch very little of it. However, I read ‘Lessons in Chemistry’ and loved it. Then I found out that Apple TV was making a series around the book. So I got Apple TV so I could watch it. I loved it!! I also watched two other series’ this year. Our daughter also shared ‘Drops of God’ with us (it’s about wine and takes place mostly in Japan and Europe.) It was extremely well done and filled with complex characters that were fascinating. The other show I watched was 5 episodes of ‘Limitless.’ It’s about Chris Hemsworth and how he challenges himself to face his own fears and weaknesses to become a better person. It was also awesome! That’s it. That’s the sum total of my TV experience for 2023. And each of them were excellent!

  542. The Boy and the Heron. I pretty much always love Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli films, but they’ve really hit it out of the ball park with this one! It was breathtaking in its scope, with mind-bendy interdimensional concepts, a sense of wonder, so much beauty, as well as having plenty of lovely slice-of-life stuff. I give it a solid 9.5 out of 10.
    I’d also like to mention Toy Soldiers, from 1991, which I saw recently and was impressed with. It was surprisingly great. Good story progression and pacing, with one of my favourite tropes – the formation of a good team, with each member using their unique strengths to get them out of a dire bind.

  547. I am going with Friday Night Lights. It’s an old series that I never watched originally but love the small town vibe or football is what it’s all about… People sticking together and being there for one another. I live in a bigger city, but I still feel the group of people that I live around Like that. Plus I live right across the street from the high school with one of the best football teams in the city and it’s just exciting to see the crowds of people who come to watch their team.

  551. The best TV show I have watched this year is this 2019 Korean drama titled “Crash Landing On You”. It’s an old show but I only watched it this year and it’s one of my favourite dramas now! I laughed and cried so much during the 16 episodes.

    I also enjoyed a Turkish serial called “Love 101” on Netflix and for movies, I thought I really like Elementals. 😉

  554. I don’t watch TV too much. When I have quiet time I read or listen to books.

    I do love Bosch. It is one of the few shows I found that stays true to the book. The events aren’t exactly the same (budget restrictions I’m sure), but the character is the one I know. The other is another Michael Connolly book, Lincoln Lawyer. I’m sure it is because he is so active in the process. I just binged the first season of Reacher, another good book-to-TV story. I will watch season two when it releases this week.

  557. Ok I been stuck on the Amazon Prime movies and TV shows lately and my absolute 2023 favorites are: “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” “1883,” “1923,” and “If I Stay.” Ok, some of these might not have come out this year but I just found them this year and I have been stuck in the romance and love stories that Amazon Prime has been airing. I can honestly say that the authors, writers, and the actors are doing some great work in these movies/TV shows.

  558. Hi. I’m definitely more of a reader then a TV watcher. I have seen all of “Yellow Stone” and liked it a lot. I do like a good movie though. “Fried Green Tomatoes” is awesome. “Inglorious Bastards” and “Lawless” are a couple more I really liked. They’re all older movies but i think definitely worth watching.

  609. Because I do nothing but listen to audiobooks, I rarely get into television series. However, recently I did catch a very old series that I had never heard of. McMillon. The McDonald’s monopoly game scandal. Damn it was interesting. I remember that something happened and they stopped the game but I didn’t know the details. I had no idea that the mob was actually involved. Wow, it was great. I’m glad that I stumbled on to that.

  610. I have’t seen a movie in theater since before the pandemic. We are also a family of rewatching classics like Good will Hunting and The Shawshank Redemption. I’m waiting to watch Oppenheimer streaming in a few days.
    For TV, anything Star Wars. I love the story lines and it’s my way to connect with my 6 year old Grandson who knows literally anything about Star Wars. he knows who fought who, what color their light saber is, what ship the drive, what planets they have been on. He blows my mind.

I can listen to it in the background, like the news or something, if my eyes are shut, but that’s about it. I haven’t watched any tv shows in a few years. I’m homebound due to illness so I haven’t been to a movie theater in a very long time… Seriously can’t remember the last movie I watched. Thank goodness for music and audiobooks… I’ve listened to a ton of audiobooks this year. Julie, your audiobooks are the best!!

THE COMFORT IN THE BRAVE

Falling-for-the-Enemy turns Ride-or-Die

Clover Bradley was having the worst day of her life and then she got kidnapped. In her own home. Well, her empty and currently being renovated childhood home on the edge of Disciple, West Virginia and not her former cozy cottage on the grounds of the Dixie Yonder Hotel where she was working and thriving until that very morning. But it still counts and definitely makes her very bad day much worse.

But that’s not even the crazy part. The crazy part is that she’s falling for her kidnapper. A handsome man, if a little morally challenged, who is probably very dangerous and has threatened to kill her half a dozen times over the span of just one day, but what can one do? The attraction is there.

Riggs is just trying his best to stay out of prison. Which seems at odds with his current actions, but need-to-know nuances make all these nonsensical pieces fit. And even though Clover isn’t a model captive—she’s a complainer of the princess variety—he finds himself getting attached. If he hadn’t been forced to kidnap her to save his own hide, he could see a future where the two of them end up together.

So he figures… why not save her life by endangering her some more?

And she figures… well, it’s better than being left to rot in her own basement.

And that’s, of course, when things get interesting.

The Comfort in the Brave is an ironic twist of fate inbred to a really bad decision. It’s a captive romance turned ride-or-die in a crazy escape from Blackberry Hill—but this time Collin Creed isn’t coming to save anyone, he’s looking for revenge.

SPARKTOPIA

Sacrifice one for the greater good? Or burn it all down to save her?

Spark is light, Spark is magic, Spark is power.

Spark is everything and it blooms inside the bodies of Tau City’s young women. Once a decade, in exchange for enough power to keep the city modern and comfortable, a Spark Maiden must be sacrificed to their mysterious tower god in a ritual called The Extraction.

Ten Maidens are Chosen, but only one enters the tower as a sacrifice, never to be seen again. The nine leftovers are elevated to celebrity status and spend the next decade living in the luxurious Maiden Tower, wearing couture gala gowns, and partying with the city’s most interesting and beautiful people. Every young woman in Tau City wants to be a Spark Maiden because the odds have always been in their favor.

Until now.

One by one, the greedy god has summoned the leftover Spark Maidens into sacrifice. When Clara Birch, Spark Maiden number nine, gets the call, she fully expects her fiancé, Finn Scott, the Extraction Master’s son, to save her.

Spoiler alert: He’s not going to.

At the same time, a rebellion is brewing. The forgotten underclass is plotting the end of the god and his tower with strategically-placed Rebel spies that will bring it all down. Jasina Bell is a young woman on a mission to make history and she will stop at nothing to get the fame she deserves.

When Clara is forced into the tower against her will, she makes an unexpected discovery. There is no god—just a man, one willing to do what Finn Scott wouldn’t: save Clara Birch.

Even if it means destroying the entire world to do so.

 

Betrayal and sacrifice, loyalty and power plays—four people are entangled across time and space as they seek truth, freedom, and true love in this wild and twisted adult romantasy that will have fans of “Outlander” and “Kushiel’s Dart” breathlessly turning pages until the very last word.
