Mit ihrer Video-Skulptur »Les larmes d'acier« (Stählerne Tränen) schuf die Belgierin Marie Jo Lafontaine 1987 eine Arbeit für die documenta 8 in Kassel, die weit über das übliche Maß Aufsehen erregte und im Gedächtnis geblieben ist. Das war der internationale Durchbruch einer Künstlerin, die schon vorher große Beachtung gefunden hatte, nun aber allgemein gelobt wurde als Wegweiserin in eine neue Dimension von Video-Kunst. Es gebe keinen europäischen Video-Künstler, so David Galloway, der mit solch virtuoser Meisterschaft sein Metier beherrsche. Doch auch mit ihren Fotoarbeiten und Environments mehrte sie über die Jahre ihr Renommee in der internationalen Fachwelt. Nach dem 1992 bei Cantz publizierten Band »Immaculata« erscheint jetzt in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Marie Jo Lafontaine ein delikat gestaltetes Künstlerbuch mit den verschiedenen Aspekten ihres Werkes der letzten fünfzehn Jahre, in dem es vor allem um existenzielle Bedingungen menschlichen Daseins geht: Video- Skulpturen, Fotoarbeiten mit monochromer Malerei und Text sowie Rauminstallationen. Sorgfältig ausgewähltes Bildmaterial, Texte und Textzitate von Schriftstellern und Philosophen zeichnen ein komplexes Porträt dieser sensiblen wie kraftvollen Künstlerpersönlichkeit. (Englische Ausgabe erhältlich ISBN 3- 89322-947-7.) Zur Künstlerin: Marie Jo Lafontaine *1950 in Antwerpen. 1975-1979 Studium an der Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture et des Arts Visuels La Cambre, Brüssel. 1977 Prix de la Jeune Peinture Belge. 1981 Grand Prix de la Littérature Argilienne von Pierre Restany. 1990 Gastdozentin an der Sommerakademie, Salzburg. 1992 Professorin am Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie, Karlsruhe. Ausstellungen in wichtigen internationalen Galerien und Museen.Shipping Notes

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters.
That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception.
SPOILER:
The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured.
I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Wow.
Format: Kindle
Okay I’m usually not one for stand-alone’s I’m an avid series reader but my goodness am I so happy I read this! This story was brilliant & so absolutely mesmerizing. I loved reading about each character and their struggles as well as what helped them to move forward. The ending definitely brought tears to my eyes so hard. I truly wasn’t expecting some of what happened in this story. There is about to be a spoiler I am going to reveal so please stop reading if you don’t want the spoiler !!!! ⚠️ ⛔️ ‼️
I loved that the author didn’t do what most authors do with irredeemable male characters. I truly was hoping that Nate Jr. would be apart of the pack after the way he treated Astrea bc he truly didn’t deserve it. Though I must say you did a wonderful job or redeeming him as a person. I cried my eyes out when he walked into the story. I was truly terrified he was going to be a bad guy to the end. However you truly did him such a justice by having him realize his faults & having him redeem himself in the most wonderful way. I’m so sad that he didn’t get to hear how much his brother loved him & forgave him before dying. But again you wrote that ending so beautifully & I just can’t express how much I loved this story & how you took a different route than most authors I have read have. You are a remarkable author Cinder Blaze & I thank you generously for creating such a masterpiece.

Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
I was pleasantly surprised by this omega verse book. This 1 definitely had a few new twists And I really enjoyed reading it. The main female character was a badass and awesome. She had 1 best friend I wish we could have seen a little bit more of their friendship in this book. Her relationship with the male characters was good not to contrived or super instantaneous. And we had some fun plot twists that I didn't expect. I wish we had more of a follow up on the situation with her family her background and her mother who was a wench. I would definitely recommend this book.

Wow. Just wow. An amazing read
Format: Kindle
This book was eloquently written, or should I say the authors writing style is very eloquent? I loved the characters, and the story was quite compelling. I absolutely loved the FMC, she's a BA who doesn't take any crap & gives as good as she gets. A certain person certainly got his just desserts & then some, the earlier scenes of which were quite satisfying, had me punching the air & everything haha. All in all 20/10, great read

My opinion
Format: Kindle
Let me preface this by saying I really liked the story and the characters however, this book is in desperate need of some sort of editing. It's not misspelled words or formatting, but continuous run on sentences. Redundancies within the sentences. There were a couple of paragraphs that I had to go back and reread 3 or 4 times. Overall, I'd say it was worth the read.
