Wonderful, funny, honest
I have always liked Bernard Cribbins since i saw him in the early carry on films Jack and Spying. He is one of those people that whatever he turns his hand to, he is excellent at. from doing the Carry on Films to singing and dancing (even producing a top ten single). This is a wonderful read and definitely a book i found hard to put down. Its written very well and is laid out in almost chronological order, with some amazing photos too. I just loved it and i would recommend this to anyone. Great read :)

Prince, soon-to-be-King, T'Challa's first solo outing, after the events of Captain America: Civil War, in which he returns home to be crowned King of Wakanda and soon finds himself challenged by the sins of his (father's) past.

Very much a movie of two halves (both literally and figuratively), I found the first half to be a wee bit on the slow side, before events - and the pace -picks up in the second.

I'm not enamoured, however, of the now-overused CGI throw-down between T'Challa and Eric Killmonger (who does have a legitimate grievance) in the final third of the movie.

Tina Fey | 2012 | Biography

I was so excited to read this book! I LOVE Tina Fey in 30 Rock and on SNL, I found her absolutely hilarious! This book however, was not. I laughed through the Introduction and the Growing Up and Liking It chapters but that was it. I thought this book would be filled with funny stories and zinging one liners - it was not. I still love Tina Fey as an actress but as a writer, she kind-of sucks. Her writing is very choppy, the chapters don't flow together and I wasn't too impressed with all the (actual!) scripts within the pages. It took me forever to finish reading!

A critical and commercial flop on its release but in my humble opinion sorely underrated. I liked how the film shows the influence of technology on human relationships largely to a negative degree and made me thankful for being old enough that I went to school in those halcyon days where we didn’t have constant access to the internet and social media. The film successfully weaves several stories of different generations in a small town and I found its different depictions of loneliness and anxiety quite moving at times. The ensemble cast all do good work (even Adam Sandler) and the quality soundtrack enhances the mood. Well worth your time.
