I didn't get it... I think it's supposed to be thought provoking and eye opening but I just found it boring, though beautifully written.

Was suckered in by the packaging. Fancy cover and black edged pages. Should have saved my money.

1963 | Drama, History, War
The Bank holiday classic. I didn't watch it for ages but once I did I found it was a pretty good story loosely based on a true story of P.O.W.s escaping from their prison camp during the second world war.

This collection of stories didn't really interest me. I found some of them funny but for the most part it bored me.

All in all, this had some good short stories and some "meh" short stories. It isn't anything special.
  
The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
2012 | Comedy, Horror
This is a horror film with a twist. It deliberately engages with/mocks traditional horror tropes. I found these parts humorous. It's creepy, but not terrifying. So if you want to be scared out of your skin, look for something else.

Does every read fairy stories and automatically imagine medieval? I do. And then I was surprised by a character remembering the 1960s.
I found this really captivating, however not as much so as Fables.
I'm still going to read the second!

I truly enjoyed this book. I found it terribly difficult to put down. The description is amazing and I felt like I was in Bombay. It has a fantastic plot. It has everything for everyone, drama, romance, action. Recommend it highly!

Wow such a moving, gripping and heartbreaking book which I found difficult to put down. I just needed to find out what was going to happen next. One of the best books I've read for a while. Definitely recommend you read.

Aw, what a beautiful ebony baby.

There were certain parts of this book I could highly identify with, because I shared the feelings Don had - but so much of it was repetitive and by the end of the book I found myself doing some heavy skimming.
