Two Nights - Melissa Minners reviews a stand alone thriller from Kathy Reichs.
Excerpt: "When I heard that Kathy Reichs was taking a step away from her Temperance Brennan series to create a standalone thriller, I was intrigued. I had watched Bones, the television series based on her Temperance Brennan book series, for years and enjoyed it. I know people who have read those books and said they were incredibly enjoyable and fast-moving.

What begins as mainly orchestral takes a turn in later tracks as more electronic sound and electronic manipulation is added..."
Birds of Prey: Gabby and Dinah: Part 3 - A Birds of Prey fanfic by Melissa Minners.

The story takes place during the Birds of Prey television series and continues through my other fanfics which can be found here. I hope you enjoy..."
Mozart in the Jungle: Season 3 - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the third season of the popular Amazon original series.
