The point of view and the perspective of this story was spot on. I really likes the characters of Simon and Blue. Keeping the suspense until the end who Blue was was great. There were points in this book I laughed out loud. Others just made me feel uncomfortable for the charcters, which is a good thing. This is a romance with innocence.

Cross between Sleepy Hollow and Sherlock Holmes
I enjoyed the Edgar Allen Poe-esque feel of this story, with a bit of macabre mixed with mystery. While it was quite a long read, and there were bits that dragged on, the twists at the end were enough for me to keep going. It would be good on the big screen.

Review on behalf of my 5yo
My 5yo daughter absolutely adores this film. She loves the characters, the singing and dancing. This is one of her go-to movies when she's feeling poorly. The plot is nice and easy to follow for young ones. Has a lovely feel good factor about it.
Well worth a watch just for the music.
  
Melanie Dickerson has created yet another story that any fantasy romance reader will love. As with her other stories this one follows a girl who has to help her love.
As a servant she must help her prince regain his throne. A compelling romantic escape with a happy ending that is sure to leave you in a feel good mood .

I feel like I'm disliking books more often then I like them. It is a great premise, but it just really dragged for me. I didn't care about a single character, and those I did care about weren't followed nearly enough. I can't honestly say that I enjoyed this book. It was a slog. It wasn't bad, but it really was not good.
  
This is a collection of four short stories, of weddings and falling in love. Each story has amazing characters which bring there own stories to the book. These are quick short stories, which make you feel good. Lots of romance, love and swoon worthy male characters.



Highly recommended collection

I held off watching Suicide Squad because I wasn't sure if it would live up to the hype. I really liked it and I definitely see why people were obsessed with Harley Quinn! (0 more)
Definitely feel like it was overrated but not by too much, I will say. Felt a sequel is in need as a lot of story left to tell! (0 more)
Surprisingly Good

This was equally good and interesting.. and confusing lol.. It was very well written and was funny in a lot of spots.. I feel like it might have needed a bit more character depth to make it a bit longer and give us a bit more insight but overall i enjoyed this story and im glad i got to review it

An interesting addition to the series which runs concurrent with the last film time wise. The plot is starting to get stretched a bit thin now though, I liked the original films gritty realistic feel. Overall I think it was a bit hyped up and the ending was a bit sudden, not what I was hoping for but still a good action film.

Hmm not heard of the character before? This just seemed like a comic book western for me with a quirky supernatural element. It has a good cast and while not being a bad film, it does feel like there is something missing? It could have been a lot better. It's very short and simple and has some ok action scenes, that's about it.
