All the feels!
Wow! This book had made me laugh, cry, think just everything. I want to read it again i lover it so much.
There were some heartbreaking moments that made me want to climb in the book and give Eleanor a cuddle (maternal instinct) and parts that made me laugh outloud.
You will not be disappointed

Short and sweet
A great addition to the wizarding world collection. This is a short but sweet read with a few stories that are "classics for young wizards". JK Rowling was clever to think of adding commentaries by Dumbledore after each story, this really feels like Dumbledore is engaging with the reader. What's not to like?

If your not big on board game but maybe you have a lot of friends who are, this is a good way to start. The game is easy to learn and similar to hearts. Games are generally long but they do get quite competitive.

Another very average horror set off the beaten track. A couple of familiar faces in the cast and it is quite gory in parts. However it feels like it's trying to ride the coat tails of Wrong Turn, The hills have eyes franchises. One for horror fans who don't mind a cheesy horror. You might like Eden Lake instead.

A very strange and gory horror, comedy. This was made quite a few years after the first but feels very similar, although the technology for the effects has greatly improved during that time, it really shows in some scenes. It has a very similar storyline as well to the first, so if you liked that you should like this.

Brutal Thriller
I had high hopes for this as the trailer had a @Man on Fire (2004) vibe to it. For a short film it's very slow most of the time, feels more like 2 hours long. The plot is simple and I expected it to be more drawn out. Phoenix performance though raises this above average.

I hadn't heard of this movie until I took a Decolonization of Africa history class at university. I have to admit, I kind of disliked that class, until we watched this movie.
The documentary style is fantastic, it's gritty and feels raw. The Battle of Algiers is a good example of now a familiar, modern warfare.

Not as good as the first one. It's Just basically more of the same, but second time round you know what to expect, some scenes were nearly identical to the first. Leaves too many loose ends as well, better off just watching the first. At least that feels more complete than this. Not scary at all.

This was a Goodreads Giveaway that I won. I really enjoyed this and it surprised me by the end, certain aspects came about that I didn't think would. About Hannah and Cora...the concept of cannies still feels sort of science fiction even though AI has come a long way and is still evolving and improving.
