"Don’t shoot! I know this picture is corny and sexist but nobody loves the whole “She-warrior in an iron bikini riding a snow leopard over her smited bloody fallen foes” more than me. You need to understand what a true cheese dealer I am. Heavy Metal is nothing if not living, breathing boogie van art. And what’s wrong with that? John Candy as Den of Earth?! Oh Canada! It came out when I was very young and I watched it a million times. It made me look at animation a whole other way and it had Black Sabbath in it! Dio AND Black Sabbath! So Rad!"

A shadow over Innsmouth
By H. P Lovecraft

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

The story describes of a strange hybrid race, half-human and half an unknown creature that resembles a cross between a fish and frog, that dwells in the seaside village of Innsmouth (formerly a large town, but lately fallen into disrepair). The townspeople worship Cthulhu and Dagon, a Philistine deity incorporated into the Cthulhu Mythos.

He certainly has way of telling stories. This one was interesting and kinda gross I could almost smell the stench. One of the better ones I’ve read so far.

This second installment of the Fantastic Beasts franchise is a great follow up to the outstanding first film that we had. JK Rowling has created this immense world that the whole world has fallen in love with and this film proves that even more. Crimes Of Grindelwald was a great and enjoyable film. This film, in my opinion, is the story teller of the franchise. This film is introducing more and more characters and the stories behind them so the viewers can get more insight into the magical world. Overall its a great film that makes you want the third film more and more everytime you watch it.

I'm not normally a fan of romantic comedies as such and this one didn't make me laugh, I thought it was a bit ridiculous in places but putting that aside I did like the romance part. Though admittedly, I didn't quite get that part to start with either.

Ben just seemed really determined for her to fall for him and they'd literally only met that night at the club. I had to keep reading just to find out <i>why</i> Ben had fallen for her so easily. And the reason surprised me a little but why not?

I may read more of Jo Watson's books.
