Der Schweizer Künstler HR Giger (1940-2014) wurde vor allem durch die Oscar-prämierte Gestaltung des Monsters für Ridley Scotts Science-Fiction-Horrorfilm Alien (1979) berühmt. Im Rückblick betrachtet war dies nur das prominenteste Wesen aus Gigers umfangreichem Arsenal biomechanischer Geschöpfe. Dazu zählen verschmolzene Zwitterwesen von Mensch und Maschine , sinnliche Körper, die in mutterleibsartigen Apparaten eingeschlossen sind, und gemalte Dämonen , von fantastischer Literatur und Gigers Albträumen beflügelt. Diese Bilder verliehen den kollektiven Ängsten seiner Epoche Ausdruck: Angst vor dem Atomkrieg, vor Überbevölkerung und Ressourcenknappheit sowie einer Zukunft, in der das Überleben unserer Körper von Maschinen abhängt. Ihre visionäre Kraft spielt mit den Dämonen der Vergangenheit und erzeugt zugleich Mythen für die Zukunft. Diese günstigere Ausgabe basiert auf der umfassenden Monographie, die kurz vor dem unerwarteten Tod des Künstlers begonnen wurde, und huldigt Gigers einzigartiger Vision. Sie erzählt die vollständige Geschichte seines Lebens und seiner Kunst , zeigt seine Skulpturen, die Filmarbeiten und Plattencover mit Kultstatus sowie das Erbe, das er in seinem eigenen Künstlermuseum in den Schweizer Alpen hinterlassen hat. In einem tiefgründigen Essay setzt sich der Giger-Experte Andreas J. Hirsch intensiv mit den Themen von Gigers Werk und seiner Welt auseinander. Zudem enthält das Buch zahlreiche Dokumente aus Gigers Archiv, Zitate von Zeitgenossen und kritische Betrachtungen sowie eine ausführliche Biographie , die sich auf die Aufzeichnungen des Künstlers stützt.

That ending 😫
Format: Kindle
I fell into a false sense of security and really thought this was gearing towards a happy ending. Then I realized there’s no work they don’t punish Andrew. I really liked Vale’s character. I don’t normally read books with pregnancy but going into this knowing she was pregnant made it more enjoyable for me. I loved Bishops devotion to her and her happiness. I also loved that Holt and Mercy couldn’t fight their attraction to her. I love scent matches so very much. I’m so curious to see how this duet will end up. And I need to pay more attention and notice that a book I’m starting is a duet to begin with lol

oh wow
Format: Kindle
I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

A good read
Format: Kindle
A good read, just fluffy cuteness, no antagonism. I like all the characters. It could have used another round of editing however, glanfds being one error that cracked me up, and my personal pet peeve was that the author kept using the word fill instead of feel, which I promise you are not interchangeable haha, but it's definitely better than the majority of books I read on here mistake-wise.

amazing
Format: Kindle
Knot the Bride was a fantastic read! The characters were all amazing and well-developed. It was easy to like them all. Sophia, Luca, Nick, and Gavin were all perfect for each other. It was such a charming story that had me hooked the entire time. I did wish there were POVs from Luca, Nick, and Gavin but it was still an amazing book without it. I am excited to read the next book in the Willowside Omegaverse series! This is definitely a must-read for fans of omegaverse romance!. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

3 Star Read,
Format: Kindle
This book wasn't bad, but wasn't my cup of tea. It's highly disappointing because the storyline is so original. There is no real conflict or resolution, so the entire thing feels flat. As a lover of omegaverse books, I know there is a ton of variety out there, and ov is really up to the author. But this one is weird. Omegas have multiple scent glands all over their bodies and go into week long heats every month. Alphas have knots in the middle of their shaft instead of the base, and the knot doesn't always swell, no explanation of when or why. It doesn't engage at all when the mouth is in play. I also didn't enjoy the author's writing style. Each paragraph is only 1 or 2 sentences long, and the entire book reads very stacato. The conversations are stiff and unnatural feeling. Everything is very repetitive, both in word choice and in thought. The same thing is repeated 3 or 4 times over a single page, multiple times over. I ended up doing so much skimming. The first 50% of the book is all slow burn, and the last 50% is almost straight mediocre spice. This wouldn't have been all bad if the grammar and spelling errors didn't start at the exact same time. Tongue is repeatedly misspelled in the middle of the spice.
