Not as good as the book
It was a good representation of the book, however it kind of droned on and was slow paced.
The book involved a lot more in-depth description of Elio and his feelings towards Oliver even though it was also quite slow paced. The depth of how the book was written though made up for it, as it kept you wanting to read it more.
I would most likely watch the film again as it is still quite good and is a great coming of age movie. Furthermore, there were some funny moments within the movie.
Would recommend the movie, however I think that the book is definitely worth reading as it portrays it a lot better

Just when I thought I didn't have any more patience for Young Adult fiction, along comes this book. A book so funny, so sweet, so true that it has made me give the genre another chance. The main character, Finbar Frame, is absolutely endearing in all his geekiness and attempts at being cool by becoming a vampire. The plot is simple and it's no surprise where the story goes or how it ends, but it is Finbar himself that makes the book a delight to read. <u><b>Bloodthirsty</b></u> is a very short and easy read that was most enjoyable.

fantastic read
This is the first book I've read by this author and it definitely won't be the last. This story has it all, funny laugh out loud moments, a very real feel and everyday modern issues. The characters were really well written and the story line around them was fantastic. The English slang is really well done and adds humour to the characters. This book will hook you from the first page. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.



Highly recommended read

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

This book starts out with Victoria watching her godchild Dylan. It quite funny and surprising what happens to Connor and Victoria. Connor show up at her door. He has news to tell her. There a big surprise for them both. They find out in the book something the other does not know. Their friends did to have their son Dylan. each know what they did to conceive him but Victoria and Connor do not know all of it.

It a book to pick up and read for it good to show some thing about friendship and relationships.

I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:




This one is better than the last one, but considering I'm comparing this to other books in this series and not saying it's all around 'good' or 'ok' should imply something to you. At least this one was faster paced, but the sentences in this one blinded my English professor so...

It's funny, even though there only one more book, I only see darkness at the end of the tunnel.
