If you were hooked on the cult classic Lost,, with all its mystery, the twists, the constant feeling that something bigger was lurking beneath the surface, then Paradise Seasons 1 and 2 on Hulu are about to become your next obsession.
The hype is real. Heated Rivalry was so great. The story centers on two elite professional ice hockey players, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, who play for rival teams in a fictional hockey league. Shane is Canadian, careful, and calm. Illya is Russian, reckless, and rough around the edges. The series spans and jumps around from 2008 to 2017, through the ups and downs of Shane and Ilya’s story.

Sweet story told through letters, our main character Sybil is complicated and flawed, and we learn her whole story from birth to death, happy and sad, throughout the course of her life. 💕
Draaaaama in the ice dancing arena!! I love a sports themed novel!⛸️
Every challenge faced by our main characters, Katarina and Heath, kept me guessing. Truly two wild cards.

Sunrise on the Reaping is OUT! I loved it so much, and I truly didn’t think I was going to even like it! I had not felt any connection to Haymitch’s character prior to Sunrise on the Reaping.
