The start of a great series!!!
This is BY FAR one of my favorite book series. The authors set it up really well and give backstory and pertinent information without getting lost in flashbacks or dragging on forever. Plus I like the references to native American culture and mythology!

Welcome to Dear Smashbomb... the orb to come to if you're looking for advice from your fellow Smashbombers or just want to have a rant to sympathetic ears. No problem is too big or too small, and there'll be no judgement here.

Just remember to only share what you're comfortable sharing & don't divulge any personal information. And please NO religion or politics.

Also, can we agree to no religion or politics? That is why I got rid of my Facebook.

Absolutely. This is rather for personal issues or advice, not for promoting or arguing about religious beliefs or politics.

The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann

2019 | Crime, Documentary
This absolutely did not require 8 episodes, which all in all made the documentary feel very bloated, and repetitive in nature. Not all successful documentaries need to be of binge watch proportions. It was interesting to gain insight into those who were working on the case or in the media at the time, but all in all, there is no new information here.
  
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and had my wish granted to read it by White Lion Publishing.

I really enjoyed this book. It's really short considering how much information is in it which is pretty impressive!

I really enjoyed the illustrations.

Honestly, though? What i enjoyed most was being introduced to filmmakers I'd never heard of before.

Lots of career and personal details and information (0 more)
A nice insight
This was an entertaining read and a good insight into Martin's life and career. It only goes up to 2013 but it contains some good reading. From Men Behaving Badly to Doc Martin this chronicles of one of the most recognised actors on british television. Well worth a read.

It follows the order of the programme of the same name. (0 more)
Includes complicated terms and mathematical concepts. (0 more)
Great in part
The book follows the tv series and is a great buy for anyone who enjoyed the programme. It manages to give you new information about each section. It does contain alot of complicated term and maths which is very hard to understand.

Loved it!
Contains spoilers, click to show
I absolutely loved this audiobook! The story made me feel the emotions the characters felt. The only thing I was left wishing for was a bit more information towards the end. I got the whole story, I just felt like something was missing. Overall, I loved this book and am looking forward to more B. A. Paris books.
