First off, I want to move to Little Sister Island. The imagery that Werlinger created was amazing. The main characters were strong and their relationship development was steady. What truely made this book stand out were the secondary characters. They were so important to the story and were almost part of the setting. I really recommend you read this book. It is a warm fuzzy feeling book.

Seemed like a good idea...
Also known as Survival Island in America. Classed as an erotic thriller, unfortunately failing on both counts. Kelly Brook does get naked for about 2 mins of the film and that's it. There isn't much tension, or scares and it has a daft voodoo sub-plot. A similar and much better film, also starring Billy Zane, is Deep Calm.

One of the classics of English literature, this short story is also by the same author who wrote "Treasure Island" (amongst others).

What I found interesting, though, is in how Mr Hyde is described within: unlike the malformed gaint monstrosity that is familiar form TV and film, Hyde is actually described as younger than Jekyll and of a lesser stature, while still projecting an aura of evil.

Gives a good portrayal based on the writings of Edgar Allan Poe. Some pretty big cast names. The plot is predictable yet not predictable at the same time. The cast give great performances but the whole thing goes a bit slow for my taste... Mildly reminiscent of shutter Island imo.

Overall it was good but needs a bit of effort to keep full attention.
