Good cast (1 more)
Lots of action
Can be confusing (1 more)
Predictable in places
Binge worthy
Based over a series of 8 episodes, the drama and action packed show follows a young girl called Hanna. Raised in the woods with no outside influences, the world is suddenly thrust upon her when she becomes overly curious and breaks the rules! Expect guns, fight scenes, and teenage temper tantrums. I thought the casting was great, the dialect was so so and some parts slightly predictable. Worth a watch

Well, that was … unusual.

If you want to know if it's possible to 'take off' by firing enough machine guns simultaneously downwards (it is), or how fast you could hit a speed bump while driving and still live, or what would happen if the moon disappeared …

this is the place to come.

Apparently a collection of material from a website-I've-never-heard-of-before (xkcd.com), this provides - as the name states! - serious scientific answers to these (and other) questions.

A curio read, maybe.

This book first interested me when I read it was a book written about guns and gun control by a person who grew up in a household that supported guns. This is a voice that I had not really heard from in YA literature. Sadly what was given to me was a book that lacked depth for the characters and was quite predictable.
The story follows a group of teen to early adults. 2 of them are white supremacists, 2 are married with a young child, 1 is a homeless teen, 1 is a victim of gun violence who has epilepsy and is also homosexual, and 1 is the greatest person ever. The group itself is so entwined by siblings, marriage, relationships, friendships it isn't weird to wonder just how big of a town it could be they are living in.
The book is full of poor choices, dealing drugs with a toddler present, constant fantasizing about killing a certain person, a lot of time spent in the minds of white supremacists.
The whole book we know someone is going to die. Most of the book is framed to make you think it will be the homeless youth at the hands of the white supremacists. But it is actually the great girl that is anti gun and everyone loves because a toddler got a hold of a gun his parents couldn't be bothered to properly store. The end murder affects the lives of everyone else so they mostly die or want to, to demonstrate that guns aren't the problem. Too bad the gun and people's selfish nature was an unaddressed problem in the whole book full of problems.
The plot was too weighed down for anything to stick and the characters fell very flat despite Hopkins best efforts.
