King at his finest
Epic, multi character novels are what Stephen King does best and It is a fantastic example. The characters are all well written, well developed, flawed but all loveable in their own ways. The plot itself is a mix between a coming of age and a horror story, and keeps you reading throughout this 900 page + novel. The finale does get a bit too bonkers in parts and there are a few aspects of the story that are a little unnecessary, but it's a sign of a great book when you get to the end and feel so sad that it's over.

Fantastic graphics, big budget Hollywood film
This film is a guilty pleasure of mine when I'm desperate to watch an apocalyptic film. It's much more intelligent than your run of the mill brainless action movie given that it is based on Al Gore's book about the reversal of the Gulf Stream.

That being said, it is still a Hollywood big budget movie so don't expect intelligent dialogue or anything particularly well explained. The graphics are phenomenal and the moment the eye of the storm freezes everything in sight still gives me shivers down my spine.

Not bad for a sit back and contemplate the end of the world kind of film.

A very feel good movie about an octogenarian widow who was in an unhappy marriage wants to fulfill a long desire to climb a Scottish mountain, so off she goes. It was filmed on the side of the mountain and the surrounding areas and the scenery is fantastic, no doubt tourism will go up in this area. Sheila Hancock plays the widow and a big round of applause to her for actually walking up the mountain. She start off being a (excuse the language) a crappy old cow but you just fall in love with her at the end. Everyone should go watch it.

Wanted to review it properly but added it to the list too quickly, brilliant film, fantastic scenery and Sheila Hancock plays the old widow and you just learn to love her at the end. Watch it.

fantastic start to this series
This is the first book in this series by this author. This author has managed to bring two exceptional characters to lie in this book. You will find yourself lost within the pages as you read. This is a story about sex, lies and lingerie but there is also a love story as well. This book ends in a cliff hanger ending and leaves you wanting more. I can't wait to read more from this author and in this series in the future.



Highly recommended start to the series

fantastic
Instant Family is an instant hit. This movie is so funny and has such a good story. Great cast. This is an hilarious movie with elements of depressing, sad, and funny parts, i could be laughing one minute and crying the next, loved how they took 3 kids in and even through the troubles and hard time stuck together. The youngest child is so funny and reminds how most kids her age can act if dont get their own way, will be watching this movie again at some point. highly recommend for people to watch, its got to be the best comedy so far that i have watched.

fantastic read
This is the second book in this series by this author. In this book the characters grab a hold of your heart even more. You go through lots of highs and lows with them through out this book. Same amazing well written characters as the first book. This book continues where book one "Privilege" finishes and you must read them as a series. This story is emotional, so have the tissues at the ready, your going to need them. I can't wait to read more in this series and by this author in the future.
