I enjoyed Hidden Bodies even more than You IF that's even possible!By JessiJoe pulled out all the tricks in this book and of course he falls in love and is up to his usual no good, but that's what we're asking for right? Throughout most of this book I felt like I was balancing two sides of Joe... his life chasing Amy and his life with Love. At times it was a little frustrating, but what I enjoyed most was the character development. Getting to watch Joe become a better man was what I was hoping for, but was also left wondering whether it would last or not. That's another wonderful thing about this book. It had me constantly questioning what was about to happen. I was thrown for a few loops and ended up being left quite surprised. My biggest question right now is, was he right?!Another great addition to this book was the fact that I finally felt the characters were a little more realistic and relatable. In the first book with Beck and Peach, I just didn't connect with them and it left me partial to the female characters, but obsessing over the down to earth Joe who just couldn't find love. (Poor Joe). So I was THRILLED when I could actually relate to these characters and maybe it was because of their California attitudes ;) Whatever it was, I'm thankful to have gotten to see more depth in each character.I gave this 5 stars and highly recommend this creepy and fantastic series! It reminded me of Dexter and how you easily get addicted to such an unfavorable type of character. I was left begging Caroline for more Joe!To hear more about this book check out: [...]0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. 4 StarsBy Kindle CustomerJoe is back and just as charmingly crazy as ever!DISCLAIMER:Do not read this review if you haven't read 'You' yet. It contains spoilers for 'You' but not for 'Hidden Bodies.'SYNOPSIS'Hidden Bodies' starts up where 'You' left off. Joe has killed Beck and just met Amy. He's still stressed about the little cup of DNA he left in a closet in Little Compton. He and Amy seem perfect for each other and once again, Joe is in love! But being a psychopath who has murdered several people considerably lowers your odds of having a sweet, old fashioned courtship... Not surprisingly the relationship does not have a "happily ever after" ending which leads Joe to leave NYC and move to LA.After moving cross country, Joe is totally embracing the LA life style; he's into social media, he's using the term 'bro,' and living in Hollywood. He even meets some wealthy fringe celebs and becomes interested in screen writing. As the title of the book hints, there will be additional bodies to dispose of and more deranged behavior.WHAT I LOVEDEven though this is book two and I know exactly who and what Joe is, I still keep finding myself falling for his charms; hoping he (literally) gets away with murder, gets the girl and covers his tracks well. What's wrong with me????I loved Joe's snarky commentary about LA, rich people and the entertainment industry. It was interesting to watch him shift his opinions on all those topics as his circumstances began to change.I loved the whole Quinn family; Love, Forty, Ray, Dottie and The Pantry. They were such sweet, dysfunctional people. Love was surprising and Forty wasn't- he was such a typical insecure rich boy/ under achiever.LA was so well written that I felt as if I were there. It made me want to go back to visit asap!Once again the best part of the book was being inside Joe's seriously psychotic mind. So, so fascinating!WHAT I DIDN'T LOVESame complaints as last time; overly descriptive sex and mildly offensive language. Yet, knowing what I was in for, I didn't hesitate to download this book the second I finished 'You.'About 3/4 of the way through the book, I felt like it lost focus. Not enough to really bother me, but it just seemed to have one or two story lines going on at once.OVERALLI loved both 'You' and 'Hidden Bodies' and hope there will be a third book in the series.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Joe meets California and it seems things get more messy....By AlohaDDidn't we all need more Joe?? Since I started my journey of Joe on audio, I had to continue. My oh my. I am so glad I continued Joe's journey through audio because Santino Fontana was perfect as Joe and he continues to be the perfected twisted character that he was in You.Joe is now in California after following love there. He has been unlucky in love and he is bound and determined to find Love there and put everything behind him but he can't. He has loose ends and needs to make sure he isn't as sloppy with his future.I have to admit that Hidden Bodies definitely read like a sequel to me. Meaning that it just didn't hit on the same cylinders as the original. Don't get me wrong, I loved it and enjoyed the story, but the characters and the way Joe interacted with them wasn't on the same level as You. But if you listened to this on audio with Santino, he almost makes up for it. Because Mr Fontana IS MFing JOE!!! His twisted inner dialogue and his fluctuation in his reading style just grabs you.Overall, another good story but one that left me wanting a little more in some parts and less in others. This one read more like a thriller. Was it because he was in California now? Perhaps. Because it's all about Hollywood, right?Joe is going to be missed, but now I will need to follow Santino Fontana and see what he does with other characters. Because now, in my mind, IS Joe Goldberg. A little normal and a little psycho. That's my Joe. ldquo;Therersquo;s something deeply insidious about the storytelling of Caroline Kepnes. As satire of a self-absorbed society, Kepnes hits the mark, cuts deep, and twists the knife.rdquo; mdash;Entertainment Weekly ldquo;Obsessed.rdquo; mdash;Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive ldquo;Delicious and insane...The plot may be twisty and scintillating, but its Kepnes' wit and style that keep you coming back.rdquo; mdash;Lena Dunham ldquo;Hypnotic and scary.rdquo; mdash;Stephen King In the compulsively readable follow-up to her widely acclaimed debut novel, You, Caroline Kepnes weaves a tale that Booklist calls ldquo;the love child of Holden Caulfield and Patrick Bateman.rdquo;Hidden Bodies marks the return of a voice that Stephen King described as original and hypnotic, and through the divisive and charmingly sociopathic character of Joe Goldberg, Kepnes satirizes and dissects our culture, blending suspense with scathing wit. Joe Goldberg is no stranger to hiding bodies. In the past ten years, this thirty-something has buried four of them, collateral damage in his quest for love. Now hersquo;s heading west to Los Angeles, the city of second chances, determined to put his past behind him. In Hollywood, Joe blends in effortlessly with the other young upstarts. He eats guac, works in a bookstore, and flirts with a journalist neighbor. But while others seem fixated on their own reflections, Joe canrsquo;t stop looking over his shoulder. The problem with hidden bodies is that they donrsquo;t always stay that way. They re-emerge, like dark thoughts, multiplying and threatening to destroy what Joe wants most: truelove. And when he finds it in a darkened room in Soho House, hersquo;s more desperate than ever to keep his secrets buried. He doesnrsquo;t want to hurt his new girlfriendmdash;he wants to be with her forever. But if she ever finds out what hersquo;s done, he may not have a choice... ldquo;Therersquo;s something deeply insidious about the storytelling of Caroline Kepnes. As satire of a self-absorbed society, Kepnes hits the mark, cuts deep, and twists the knife.rdquo; (Entertainment Weekly)"Delicious and insane as its predecessor....The plot may be twisty and scintillating, but its Kepnes' wit and style that keep you coming back." (Lena Dunham)"Obsessed." (Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author)ldquo;With Hidden Bodies (out today), Caroline Kepnes delivers a more riveting, more chilling, more fascinating sophomore novel as our favorite sociopath Joe Goldberg takes on Hollywoodhellip; suspenseful, charming and unexpectedly poetichellip;With her singular style, endearing antihero and captivating social satire, Kepnes will leave you entirely satisfied and ready for more.rdquo; (USA Today: Happy Ever After)"[A] clever, canny and creepy tale thatrsquo;s every bit as delectable as YOU.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

    A PARENT’S GUIDE TO INSTAGRAM AUSTRALIAN EDITION 2019 In partnership with 1 A Parent’s Guide to Instagram A LETTER FROM REACHOUT An introduction to supporting your teen on Instagram ReachOut is Australia’s leading mental health and wellbeing organisation for young people and their parents. We know from research that parents and carers are worried about their children using social media. We understand that it can feel overwhelming to keep on top of what your child is accessing, and to manage how much time they’re spending online. At the same time, being socially connected is very important for your child’s development, and social media is part of socialising and connecting with others today. Teenagers regularly use social media to bond with friends, keep up with their peers, meet new people, and learn about world events and current affairs outside of their immediate life. Like any form of social engagement, social media comes with risks. Some of the most common of these include spending too much time online and being disconnected from the real world, being affected by online bullying, sharing intimate photos, and having reduced self-esteem from judging oneself or one’s own life negatively by comparison with others’ ‘ideal’ lives as shown online on sites such as Instagram. 22 The good news is, there are things you and your child can do to reduce these risks and enjoy participating in the online world. This guide will help you to understand Instagram and provide practical tips on how to start a conversation with your young person about managing their privacy, comments and time online.

  • Yasmin Williams Nervous Dater
    :: View email as a web page :: About three years ago, I made a wish for more artists to livestream their concerts. In a sense this wish has come true, though strictly in a cursed, Monkey’s Paw kind of way. I was hoping for a future in which more bands made it possible for fans to engage with their live performances from the comfort of home, and to enhance this engagement by approaching their setlists in more creative and innovative ways. Certainly, I did not anticipate that a worldwide pandemic would completely level the concert industry and make livestreaming, for now, the only game in town. Nevertheless, this is where we currently nd ourselves. And, in spite of what some in the industry might want to believe, I don’t think this is a temporary stopgap. Even if concerts come back in some form later on this year — hardly an automatic proposition given the slow rollout of Covid vaccines — I suspect that livestreaming will continue to play a signicant role in how fans experience “live” music. I wrote about how this experience can be improved here. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" and the Beginning of the 21st Century In case you missed it...

    Syracuse University SURFACE Dissertations - ALL SURFACE May 2016 Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network Laura Osur Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/etd Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Osur, Laura, "Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network" (2016). Dissertations - ALL. 448. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/448 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

After taking an ecstasy pill, things go terribly wrong and the safety of their home becomes more terrifying than the raging chaos outside. Director’s Statement Making Safer at Home was challenging. Not just because of the technical hurdles the pandemic mandated, but because of the strange new features life had taken on in those early months of the pandemic. I found myself having unusual conversations, and realizations about myself and friends — things that only this type of stress could bring out. I noticed people making major, sometimes life changing decisions, quickly. Brake-ups, pregnancies, divorces, fights-- this instigated them all. Almost everyone I knew was caught in an indefinite cycle of every day feeling the same. And then we started working on this film. Safer at Home plays out essentially in real time, and shows what a long period of lockdown could do to a group of friends.

  • The Chosen Episode 1 – “I Have Called You by Name”
    The Chosen Episode 1 – “I Have Called You By Name” SCRIPTURE Isaiah 43: 1-4 But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, Jacob, and formed you, Israel: Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name: you are mine. When you pass through waters, I will be with you; through rivers, you shall not be swept away. When you walk through fire, you shall not be burned, nor will flames consume you. For I, the LORD, am your God, the Holy One of Israel, your savior. I give Egypt as ransom for you, Ethiopia and Seba in exchange for you. Because you are precious in my eyes and honored, and I love you, I give people in return for you and nations in exchange for your life. Luke 8:1-3 Afterward he journeyed from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. Accompanying him were the Twelve and some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza, Susanna, and many others who provided for them out of their resources. John 20:1-18 On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.” So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb.
