LP version. Pressed on 180-gram vinyl. Presented in spot varnish sleeve. The Shape of Things is a collaboration between John Foxx and electronic composer and synthesizer collector Benge (Ben Edwards). The latter is best known for his 2007 album Twenty Systems, which Brian Eno described as a brilliant contribution to the archeology of electronic music. The follow-up to their critically acclaimed Interplay album (META 028CD/LP, 2011), The Shape of Things was recorded and mixed at Benge's studio in London. Like Interplay, it's the sound of analog synthesizers and drum machines - and on one track feedbacking guitars played by John Foxx himself. There's a raw, experimental edge to much of the material on the album, which is linked together by a series of instrumentals. Although not overtly autobiographical, the tone of the songs is a lot more reflective and emotional than the duo's previous work. Many of the lyrics explore feelings of loss over opportunities and lovers missed - possible futures that remain unlived. Machines built decades before the album's creation conjure an atmospheric, rough-edged accompaniment for this set of feelings and atmospheres. It's both analog and forward-looking - echoes the past while remaining futuristic - a strange push and pull that mirrors the words perfectly. John Foxx formed Ultravox! In the '70s and has worked with a wide range of artists since including Brian Eno, Xeno & Oaklander, The Soft Moon, Krautrock producer Conny Plank, Paul Daley from Leftfield, Cocteau Twins guitarist Robin Guthrie, and I, Robot (2004) director Alex Proyas.

A great hockey romance
Format: Kindle
This was a great hockey romance. Jake is a rookie NHL player who has secretly liked Kendra, a pro soccer star, since college. Kendra ends up without a place to live, so Jake steps in to help. He moves her in. They try to keep it inconspicuous to deter her ex and the team vibe. When her ex, Jake's teammate and rival, won’t leave her alone, Jake steps in to fake date her.
I loved how much Jake adores Kendra. He’s supportive, protective, and says the sweetest things to her. Kendra is tough and confident, but you also see her softer side with Jake. Their friendship is strong before anything romantic happens, which makes their connection feel real.
The fake dating, forced proximity, and “he falls first” tropes are done really well. There are lots of swoony moments, fun banter, and just enough drama to keep things interesting.

Jon Morgan's stepson? Say. Less!
Format: Kindle
This is book one in the Blade Kings series and we are starting off with a bang because we have Jon Morgan's stepson as our MMC!
This was my first second generation story and I. Loved. it! I am a huge Jon Morgan fan so seeing Jack take the Morgan name and number made me emotional. 🥹
Jack is the textbook definition of a boy obsessed. He has been down hard for Kendra since they first met in college. Unfortunately she was dating his team rival, Tyler. Tyler took Kendra for granted and didn't give her the time and attention she deserved. And Jack hated him for it.
Fast forward a few years and they are all in New York City, where Jack and Tyler are playing on the same team again, and Kendra is a pro soccer player. And there is still nothing but bad blood between Jack and Tyler.
Eventually Kendra realizes that Tyler doesn't value their relationship like he should so she ends things. Which gives Jack the time to work that Morgan (yes I know he's not really a Morgan but he acts like one). 😏
When Kendra needs a place to stay Jack is more than happy to offer up his place. And when Tyler won't leave her alone they decide to enter into a fake relationship to keep him away. Which causes some 💥 on and off the ice between the guys
As you can imagine it doesn't take long for Kendra to realize how incredible Jack is and how much she was missing out on.
My girl Kendra is a total badass independent queen. She is fierce and dedicated, but also vulnerable and passionate. They give us some top notch banter and chemistry that is off the charts.
Jack is so patient and sweet and swoony and treats her how she deserves to be treated. The way he cares for and loves her had me in a puddle.
Ruth absolutely slayed this book like she does all of her others. At this point if she writes it I'm going to read it and I'm going to love it! If you haven't already you need to add it to your TBR you will not be disappointed.

A British Boyfriend NHL Player
Format: Kindle
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/🌶️🌶️🌶️ You know, I read this on a whim when I saw that our hero Jack would be British, playing pro in the NHL. As it turns out, why did I suddenly forget he was British while reading this, and it was only when he reminded us that I went, oh yeah he is. As for Kendra, I just felt unsatisfied with her, I love Jack and I saw how much he loved her, but I felt Kendra didn’t give him the same love that he projected for her. The chemistry felt really one-sided on Jack’s part and I felt that, despite all the spice, he gave more than he took. How can this girl really say she was upset over bro group chats from college when they barely spoke at all, yet she remained faithful to her obviously cheating ex-boyfriend who was seen with other girls during their four years together? Girlie forgot her pride and she also has a lot of anxiety to work through. We also never get to see or hear her play, unlike Jack, and we barely catch a glimpse of it during her practices, so how can you convince me she was the best or that she deserved all these promotions? I wasn’t convinced about her talent at all, and I’ve read many sports romances where the female heroines absolutely dominate in their sport. All in all, what I am convinced of is that most of the people rating this five stars did it for Jack, the multiple spice scenes, and the abundance of romance tropes: mature hockey romance, friends to lovers, forced proximity, fake dating, he falls first and harder, hockey player x soccer player, third act conflict/breakup, misunderstanding/ miscommunication, the aggressive ex boyfriend, and unrequited love. After reading this, I’m not inclined to read the series before this one. I’ll try again in the next book, it seems to be more interesting with Sawyer and Collins.

Hockey / football (soccer) romance
Format: Kindle
I love a good sports romance. This was a sweet but hot sports romance, what I liked was both the main characters were both sports players.
This is a quick read and I liked the author's writing style, I will definitely read more from her.

Definitely worth it
I initially wondered if this would be worth the money. But, I have a puppy who eats everything - including kindles. She ate the first one and I said to myself, I'll buy another and just be careful to put it out of her reach. Then she ate the second one! So, I bought a second one and added the insurance. She ate this one and, with the insurance, it was replaced with a new one.
We call the 'puppy' (who is now a little over a year old) 'Jaws'. Hopefully, this third kindle won't go in her mouth. But, getting smarter, I bought a cover for it so that, if she puts her teeth on it, she'll just damage the cover.
