If you are a fan of the crime genre and have a Prime Video subscription, then look no further. That being said, it’s tough to narrow down some of the top-notch crime movies of all time, especially living in the prime time of streaming. Whether it’s a slow-burn drama, a twisted mystery, or an action-packed visual spectacle, crime movies have had a lot of takers since they first began. It also gives us an insight into why people do certain things that they do and understand different kinds of the human psyche. But what is it about these movies that appeal to the audience? It’s not that people advocate crime or the criminals, rather, it’s how the crime is solved that intrigues them. Since 1912’s The Musketeers of Pig Alley, crime thrillers have become a popular genre in cinema.

This is me hearing there is more of Liam and Ondry out there. Reread Oct 2017 - love love love Liam and Ondry!!!! In fact, stories where they aren't squick her badly, so don't expect to find abuse stories in her journal. In her worlds, tops and bottoms are all mature, consenting adults. Some of her stories focus on power exchange, bondage or bdsm. She prefers to focus on plot: mysteries and monsters and disasters, oh my, but sex can and does happen. She first cut her teeth on fanfic: gen, slash, het, and femslash. When she isn’t writing, Lyn Gala teaches in New Mexico. Her characters seek to better themselves and find the happy ending (or happier anyway), but it’s writing the struggle that inspires her muse. Even the purest heroes have pain and loss and darkness in their hearts, and that’s where she likes to find her stories. Westerns starring men with shady pasts gave way to science fiction with questionable protagonists which eventually gave in to any story with a morally ambiguous character. Lynsey "Lyn" Gala started writing in the back of her science notebook in third grade and hasn’t stopped since. John would be pretty irritated if one of his deputies had a desk as disorderly as Molly's. Not the best of starts, but the man's arrogance is almost as distracting as his blue eyes. When John Hartwell folds all six-feet-three of himself into a tiny chair and insists that whoever left the baby is a criminal, Molly begs to differ and asks what he's doing about the Island's real crime wave (if thefts of items from homes that have been left unlocked could be called that). So does the sheriff who comes to investigate the "abandonment". But fate-in the form of a newborn left in the restroom-has other ideas. Now, as Little Bridge Island Public Library's head of children's services, Molly hopes the messiest thing in her life will be her sticky-note covered desk. Welcome to Little Bridge, one of the smallest, most beautiful islands in the Florida Keys, home to sandy white beaches, salt-rimmed margaritas, and stunning sunsets-a place where nothing goes under the radar and love has a way of sneaking up when least expected.Ī broken engagement only gave Molly Montgomery additional incentive to follow her dream job from the Colorado Rockies to the Florida Keys. New York Times-bestselling author Meg Cabot's returns with a charming romance between a children's librarian and the town sheriff in the second book in the Little Bridge Island series. She remains fiercely devoted to her family, and braves famine, siege, and slavery to protect those she loves. As the streets turn into a bloody battleground between rebels and Romans, Esther's journey becomes one of survival. Meanwhile, the growing turmoil threatens to tear apart not only her beloved city, Jerusalem, but also her own family. Yet she is torn between her family responsibilities and her own desires. Always curious and eager to explore, she must accept the burden of being the dutiful daughter. Esther dreams of so much more than the marriage her parents have arranged to a prosperous silversmith. National Jewish Book Award Winner - A young woman survives the unthinkable in this stunning and emotionally satisfying tale of family, love, and resilience, set against the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE. The Vikings conveniently speak English for audience members’ benefit, and even more conveniently, Ahmed becomes fluent just by listening for a while. The titular Ahmed ibn Fadlan (Antonio Banderas), who gradually becomes one of the Northmen gang, isn’t as much of an outsider in the film. “The 13 th Warrior” isn’t as evocative as the book, which is perhaps inevitable. The wait didn’t make the material outdated, since it’s set in the 10 th century.Īnd probably 1999 was an ideal time for the release of the movie – retitled “The 13 th Warrior” because Crichton noticed everyone recoiled at the original name – as we get decently choreographed battles under the lens of John McTiernan ( “Die Hard”), whereas a few years later they would’ve been done with lifeless CGI. But in the post-“Jurassic Park” push to adapt all of Crichton’s stuff, it got its turn. “Eaters of the Dead” (1976) took the longest of any Michael Crichton novel to be adapted to film, likely because it’s the least commercial. Thanks to the charming and inviting illustrations by Maris Wicks, this is a nonfiction graphic novel with broad appeal. Tackling Goodall, Fossey, and Galdikas in turn, and covering the highlights of their respective careers, Primates is an accessible, entertaining, and informative look at the field of primatology and at the lives of three of the most remarkable women scientists of the twentieth century. A nice peaceful area with tons of different species living throughout the forest. Jane Goodall has been researching the chimps in Gombe. These three ground-breaking researchers were all students of the great Louis Leakey, and each made profound contributions to primatologyand to our own understanding of ourselves. Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Birute Galdikas have been researching these wonderful creatures for many years and have come to discover many scientific break through's. Jim Ottaviani returns with an action-packed account of the three greatest primatologists of the last century: Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas.
