Kayleigh (4 KP) rated Alice (The Chronicles of Alice, #1) in Books

Jul 1, 2019

Delightfully Dark

This is an wonderfully adult take on a classic children's tale. All the characters you loved as a child are there however you may not love them so much in this version. Henry sets a fast paced tale that follows Alice from the depths of an asylum through a blood soaked path of discovery and revenge. Whilst the fast pace can leave you a little bit wanting in terms of build up and suspense this is a great and entertaining read. If you have a couple of hours spare I would highly recommend filling with this book.

Ross (3284 KP) rated Stone Roses by The Stone Roses in Music

Apr 30, 2020

Rolling Stone's 498th greatest album of all time

I would have said I knew this album, but there a couple of songs I didn't know. Packed full of indie bangers (I am the Resurrection, Waterfall, Fools Gold, I Wanna Be Adored), a true classic. But a surprising amount of filler in this album, including Don't Stop (Waterfall played backwards) which made me feel a little sick. I would have expected this album to be higher up the list, but I am guessing the US base of Rolling Stone has dictated this somewhat (the NME list has this at 94th).

Pretty standard, but reasonably enjoyable

Standard issue murder and revenge story, which sees Jackie Chan play a dad who sees his daughter blown up in a terrorist attack in London before going after government officials and shady henchmen to try and find the truth.

I was puzzled how a Chinese, London businessman would have been able to pull off all the things that happen in the movie, but that is explained to some extent.

It was nothing ground breaking but worth watching to pass a couple of hours if you just want a bit of action and nothing much else...

AT (1676 KP) rated The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry in Books

Feb 18, 2020

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was a book club pick. As a whole, I really enjoyed the story. It was funny, sad, sentimental, frustrating, thoughtful, and hopeful, all in one. However, I didn't like the part with the "pilgrims". That was non-stop irritation for me, and I was thrilled to see that the story quickly moved forward after a couple of chapters. Honestly, I don't think the story would've lacked without that part. I don't think it added anything of true importance, either. Past that, I thought it was a good story that is worth reading.
