By Lauren Asher 5 Stars In the Dreamland Billionaire series, The Final Offer is the third and final book. I enjoyed reading this book because despite its length, it moved quickly, and it was easy to read. The book literally consumed me in one sitting. My favourite part of the storyline between Cal and Alana…
Book Review: Terms and Conditions
By Lauren Asher 4 Stars This book was quite an emotional rollercoaster! It had moments of sadness, joy, surprise, and suspense. Declan and Iris went through a range of highs and lows, with each event or decision having a direct impact on the plot and the characters' lives. This made for an unpredictable and exciting…

Book Review: The Fine Print
By Lauren Asher 5 Stars Slow-burn love themes are captured in the novel. The characters don't fall in love with each other right away; instead, their relationship grows slowly over time. It's a gradual process filled with twists and turns as they learn more about each other and their feelings develop. This type of love…
Video Game Review: PayDay 2
by Ulf Andersson 4 Stars A lot like a bank heist, PayDay 2 is a game where if you choose your team wisely, everything runs like a well-oiled machine, and everyone prospers. You've already purchased a one-way ticket to San Quentin if you leave the man with the intelligence of a toaster in charge of…
Video Game Review: Mortal Kombat 11
by NetherRealm Studios 5 Stars When Mortal Kombat (MK) was first introduced, it had the reputation in the 1990s of being "that fighting game where you rip people's heads off." It is better known for its gore and violence than for its gameplay. Things have changed since then, with MK9 and MKX raising the level…
Movie Review: The Dark Knight
By Christopher Nolan 4 Stars Batman is no longer a comic book. The Dark Knight (2008), directed by Christopher Nolan, is a haunting picture that transcends its origins to become an enthralling tragedy. It develops characters that we start to care about. That's due to the performances, the direction, the screenplay, and the overall production's…
Movie Review: Doom
By Andrzej Bartkowiak 2 Stars Doom (2005) was a huge flop that completely failed to live up to its potential as a video game adaptation. Due to its poor plot, one-dimensional characters, and uninspired execution, this sci-fi action film starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Karl Urban bombed. The plot of the film was a…
Movie Review: Godzilla
Directed by Gareth Edwards 5 Stars 2014 Godzilla, a brilliant reimagining of an old story, takes its cues from a great scene from the 1954 original's Hiroshima-and-Nagasaki-inspired tracking shot past a row of bloodied hospital patients; the camcorder immediacy of Cloverfield; the gas station sequence in Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds; and the Do Lung Bridge…
