I liked this. I did have a few laugh out loud moments when reading this but I wasn't totally invested in the romance. I got a little bored towards the end, hence the 3 stars.

Honestly, I will rip this film a new one. I did not like this movie at all and I don't think that it was well done. I had a lot of problems with the writing.

Track

"Fuck, I was so excited when I heard this song. I was staying up late one night - I can’t remember what radio show I was listening to, it was a radio that would play new songs - and I taped it off the radio. It was just so fucking cool, [sings “Dy-Na-Mi-Tee”]. I think that was the first song I heard where I thought ‘I could write a song.’ “After that I did my first ever performance in public. I’d done a school performance before that, but I did a performance with a garage MC who asked me to sing and I was ‘Lady K’ [laughs]. I sang in Croydon at a pub or something and I was doing the garage thing for a bit. That was the biggest music scene at that time in the UK, pirate radio was bigger than normal radio. I would go clubbing in Watford, I would grind in the clubs and I would get CDs from the DJs there who would have all new stuff. “That sort of reminds me of punk in a way, it was just kids in their bedrooms and they were running the clubs. I felt Ms. Dynamite did something really meaningful and she felt like a political artist to me. I don’t think I knew that at the time, but I think that’s why I was drawn in by her. I was looking at lyrics in a different way then too, thinking about the world a lot and wanting to help the world, maybe being political and not realising it. I wanted to write about the fucked up shit in the world."

I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

I usually don’t read novels like this, but as someone who loves mythology, particularly Greek, I was hungry for a good mythology read. Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy this as a modern interpretation. Honestly, if the mythology wasn’t involved, I probably would have enjoyed it more. I think I am just a mythology snob…

Overall, I thought the story was humorous and engaging. That being said, it was obvious that the author was a male instead of a female. I can’t explain it, but males just have a certain voice when it comes to trying to write chick lit/romance. While I liked his characters, sometimes I felt that his female lead was a bit of a caricature. I have to remember, however, that people like that actually do exist. With that in mind, she can be a strong yet quirky woman able to hold her own in the world even if she doesn’t always make the best decisions.

As a whole, the story is pretty entertaining. As a woman, I feel a bit put out that a man wrote a novel titled “A Girl’s Guide…” I don’t think I will read the rest of the series but that is more for the fact that it wasn’t my tastes, not because it isn’t an good book.

This book had a really good idea for a story line. Ultimately I did enjoy it, however i will not be continuing with the series as i think the writing is aimed at a younger audience.

I wish I used it more.
I like Snapchat. I don't love Snapchat but I do like it. I love the filters, I like the fact that I can send someone or a set of someones a spoken video message but I find that I just don't use it that much. I don't think it was designed for me at this point in my life. All that being said, I do like the way that it is designed, it is on my phone, and I do wish that I used it more.
