<b><i>The Devil Aspect by Craig Russell was a very pleasant read for me for many reasons! I am so glad I got the chance to read it!
The Plot</i></b>
A terrifying novel set in Czechoslovakia in 1935, in which a brilliant young psychiatrist takes his new post at an asylum for the criminally insane that houses only six inmates–the country’s most depraved murderers–while, in Prague, a detective struggles to understand a brutal serial killer who has spread fear through the city, and who may have ties to the asylum.
Psychiatrist Victor is starting a new job in the Asylum where the Devil’s Six are – Czech Republic’s most dangerous murderers. Victor has a theory by the name of the Devil Aspect, where he believes that is manifested in these six murderers. He believes it comes out in certain circumstances, making these people commit crimes, but not being aware they have done it. Something similar to a split personality, but in this case, the murderers think that the Devil is next to them, and he is making them do all these things.
<b><i>My thoughts</i></b>
This book was such a pleasurable roller coaster. I wasn’t able to put it down and I read it in only a few days. The writing is unbelievable and I am going to be picking up other books from this author, for the sole reason of his writing. The Devil’s Aspect was so intriguing and it kept me on my toes at all times. I found it extremely enjoyable.
The blend of mythology, culture and psychology is perfectly put together, and having lived in the Balkan countries, I can easily relate to many of the culture aspects. It was perfectly described and I felt as if I am in 1935 together with the characters. The time and place are wonderfully written, with incredible accuracy.
The ending was the most pleasurable, and without spoiling anything, I will only say a few things… Be ready for everything to happen. This book has many twists and many scenes where dangerous things are happening. A lot of intensity which I devoured with great pleasure. If you are coming for an adventure, you will get even more that you bargained for.
<b><i>Proceed at your own risk! And good luck!
Thank you to the team at LoveReading UK and the author, Craig Russell, for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.</i></b>

I love the Bubble Witch games. They're some of the only games I play on my phone (as I have a Nintendo 3DS and play games on that). It's completely addictive, and I really like the graphics.

This book was a little childish. I kept thinking that the main character was an idiot. I might read the second just so I know what happens. It is worth what I paid for, which was nothing.

I liked this initially but then i grew a little bored with the storyline and pretty much skimmed the last couple of chapters. I didnt enjoy this as much as i liked her other band/rockstar series.

Wow. This movie was surprisingly better than I anticipated. I was not expecting much from this movie and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of thought that went into this movie. I enjoyed it a lot.

A re read of an absolutely amazing story. I haven't bought myself to read the sequel yet... maybe this time I will? Who knows
I am not sure how I would feel about the story without Will?

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this movie on here yet. I love this version of Sherlock Holmes, RDJ and Jude Law will always be my Sherlock and Watson. I pray that they make a third one!!
