I enjoyed this.

It isn't my usual reading--the sci-fi aspect of it anyway--but I got sucked into it early on. Questions were continually running through my mind: How had she managed to come back from the dead? How had Ben managed to do that? What was with the timer? What was killing these people?

It was an interesting read and the characters were cool. I'm sad that certain ones were killed off though I wont spoil it by telling you who. And I was surprised who was causing all the problems in the first place. He wasn't even on my suspect list.

After seeing there is a second book in the series, it's gone on want-to-read list for a later time.

I finally watched Coco, after much prodding from my teen daughter. I honestly thought this movie would be really stupid, and the trailers did not catch my interest. So I finally let the kids talk me into watching this for our movie night (spearheaded by the teen daughter that loves this movie). I was so wrong about this movie- while it had its dry points, it was overall a great one. This is a great way to introduce The Day of the Dead, and could be helpful for children experiencing a death in the family/close friend to understand that those we lose still live on in our memories and should still be celebrated. If you haven't seen it yet, make the time to watch Coco.

Can you Keep a Secret
By Karen Perry

Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments

 
Surviving the weekend depends on whether you can keep a secret . . . Lindsey hasn't spoken to Rachel in twenty years, not since her brother's eighteenth birthday party at their parents' remote country house. A night that shattered so many friendships - and left Rachel's father dead. Now Thornbury Hall is up for sale, and the old gang are back there, together again. A weekend to say goodbye to the old place, to talk about the past. But twenty years of secrets aren't given up lightly. Some won't speak about what happened that night. While others want to ensure that no one ever does.


I’m not one to write bad reviews I just try to put my honest opinion but would encourage anyone else to at least try the book!
For me this was just a no go I was so bored by the time I got to part two even with an event at the end of part one! I can’t put my finger on what was missing but I just didn’t find it entertaining at all.
