The raw power of Carrie on the pages is better than any of the movies. (0 more)
Feels very dated. Wish this had been written in the 2010s. (0 more)

"A masterpiece. The journey of Summer Phoenix, a numb young woman who only feels her emotions on stage, inspired me a great deal for Laura Barlow, Natalie Portman’s character in the film."

"Dylan Thomas was the first writer to reach my heart. His work is musical and essentially a painting with words. It still feels like a dream to immerse myself in this piece."

Guilty of being a terrible film
Another film to avoid on Netflix. Hoped this would be some sort of creepy film set at a boarding school. Not scary or suspenseful at all. Really feels like a cheap made for TV film. Plot is so simple but the films drags so much it feels twice as long. Hoped for better when I saw Kelly Reilly in the cast. Do not add to your watch list!

I so enjoyed this slow burn! The Paris Apartment is a psychological thriller, and it kept me turning the pages, desperate to find out what had happened to Jess’ half brother, Ben.

Everything feels threatening: the apartment block, the other inhabitants and even Paris itself. There are riots taking place throughout the city, and Jess can’t seem to find anywhere that feels safe. Hey, even I didn’t feel safe reading it!

But could I put it down? Absolutely not!
