Giant propaganda film which basically utilizes three true crime cases but turns it into "don't trust anyone you meet online" but half of the movie plays out like stereotypes on crack. When the kidnapping happens it turns into fetish shots and a snuff film. Terrible shock horror.

Can't believe some people show this to their children.

The Sugar Men by Ray Kingfisher

I read this book in one sitting while traveling across country by air, and found myself thoroughly engrossed in the story. It is the fictional account of a woman who survived the Holocaust as a prisoner in Bergen-Belsen. She continues to have nightmares and returns to Germany to confront her horrifically painful past. Recommended to those who enjoy family histories or historical fiction centered around the Holocaust.

The Sugar Men by Ray Kingfisher

Near the end of her days, a terminally ill holocaust survivor travels back to Germany to lay to rest the memories that have haunted her life. Susannah was a teenager when the war ended and the British soldiers shut down the prison camp. Although she was free those memories and nightmares have tortured her for 65 years. They have become part of her very being and she can not let go of a past that is embedded in her soul and effected every aspect of her life from her shopping habits to her marriage, to the way she has raised her children. This was a heart wrenching read. Have tissues near by.

I received an advance copy for review… (more)

Under Darkening Skies by Ray Kingfisher

I'm sad to say that this is just not a book for me. I thought the blurb sounded very intriguing, but alas I struggled both with the very predictable story and the flat characters. I really wanted to like the book. However, I felt I didn't even have enough willpower to plow through the book to even finish it.

Buddy read with Erin!
