A good review from The Romance Studio

"Eight Days Ablaze" is a story I'm very insecure about.

But Dee at the Romance Studio liked it. 5 Hearts.

"Adina barJonas is a busy junior partner in a law firm. Her sex life and social circle is severely limited by the time she puts in at work. For Hanukkah her father sends her an unusual present. It's a VirtualClone box that she can use to create any person or situation she wants. Sex, discussions with her favorite heroes and heroines, all are at her fingertips. Little does she know her father's gift comes with hidden strings only her unusual parent could dream up.

Angelia Sparrow takes the sci-fi hologram concept to another level in this well crafted book. Not only is Adina able to see the people and scenarios she dreams up, she's able to feel them for some wildly erotic experiences. None of them seem to carry over into real life as she finds out when she tries to date one of her dream men. Her choices for interactions are interesting and fit well with what we know of the often fictional characters. Some of the real people she tries to relate to may surprise you with their ineptitude. All good things seem to come to an end as she finds out the ulterior motive behind her father's gift. This is a fun read that will leave the reader smiling."

P/f is whether the movie passes the Bechdel Test. There must be 1) Two female characters 2) who talk to each other, 3) about something besides a man.
( 1-9 )

9) San Antonio. Rewatch. Errol Flynn western. Big and gaudy and technicolor. Very satisfying. (p)

10) Death Proof. Quintain Tarantino Grindhouse flick about a stuntman who gets his sexual kicks using a death-proof car to kill pretty women. Uses 70s style and fashion in a modern time. They have ipods, but no car is newer than mid 1970s. The clothes are pure t-shirt and short shorts. Sexist--with Rose McGowan fdoing a lap dance--yet empowering with female stunt performers and radio hosts. (p)
