Mad Men  - Season 1
Mad Men - Season 1
2007 | Drama
Mad Men is one of the first and only series I binge-watched. The first episode had me sucked in, after Don Draper's work day, for him to walk into his suburban home with the family that you didn't know existed until the last few minutes. It was so good, and I was hooked. I think that this season was probably the best, and gave us the gift that is Betty Draper shooting the birds in her nightgown. The costumes were period perfect, and Peggy was definitely my favorite female character.
  
I received this book for review

I found this to be a wonderful little tale following 24 hours in the life of a newborn lion cub.

Every gorgeously illustrated page is packed with images of savannah birds and creatures to spot with a helpful picture guide inside the front and back covers for what they are. My 8yr old thoroughly enjoyed going back and forth through the pictures and then asking for more information of each of the animals he had found.

Highly recommended, both informative and entertaining.

Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn was undoubtedly the best thing in the mediocre 'Suicide Squad'. How you take to her livewire, hyperactive and at times a tad grating character will depend on how much you enjoy this spin off. Luckily I thought there was a good balance of action and humour here and plenty of entertainment to be found in Quinn's amusing narration and her interactions with the other Birds. It's got its faults certainly particularly in Ewan McGregor's hammy over the top villain but it's still worth a watch for Robbie's performance.
