Savage
This is such an original idea. The novel is set in a post apocalypse of sorts, where violent acts create physical monsters that terrorise a divided city. I've never read anything like it before; it was brilliantly written, and left me wanting more from the characters (I'm just starting on the sequel, and can't wait to see what August and Kate are up to now!).

Okay, I'm rating this like I would have before Mark Ruffalo took over the role.

After the crapfest that was the first Hulk movie I was so glad the decided to make another one and I really loved Edward Norton's take on the character of Bruce Banner. The plot was action filled and I just found it to be an overall good not only superhero movie but and great action movie.

Tried to rewatch the first one since I only saw it once when it first came out in theaters and I couldn't even finish it, but I did really like this one.

I like the Ruffalo Hulk, it has potential for the movies such as the Avengers and the sequels.

Inspiring. Very uplifting. I feel like buying a couple of people in my life this book. I feel a little better about life and faith in general just from reading this book. I don't typically read religious books or things of that nature because I know very little about the topics contained therein. However, I am super glad I read this. I would recommend it to every person I know.

An average run of the mill rom-com/drama has some funny bits and gets more serious to the end. Starting to like Jennifer Aniston a lot more in films. She was great in friends but has done far too many rom-coms now that they just kinda all blur into one. An ok watch if you're in the mood. Although some strange plot decisions don't add up?!

Odd disturbing film
A strange film with not much of a plot or explanation as to what is going on, although some might like this more because of that. It's a very gritty, raw, rather bleak film as a couple of psycho's decide to play some not so funny games with a family in a holiday home. You just need to watch a comedy after to lift your mood!

Twas The Nightshift Before Christmas
This is Going to Hurt was brilliant. It was hilarious and heartbreaking in equal measure sometimes at the same time. Like Adam Kay said, that was his Lp and thus his EP. It's more of the same just shorter and of the Christmas theme and its brilliant. You can't help be in awe of our NHS staff.

A lot happened throught volume 8, which I liked. Of course, there was the major battle between the heroes and the high priest, but there was also quite a bit that pushed the story forward, which I appreciate. It's much nicer to read moving forward instead of feeling like I'm going around in a circle while an entire volume is focused on just one small part of the story.

Book Favorite

"This is a searing novel set in 1930s America, and the story unfolds in just over 36 hours. It is a book about sex, alcohol, class, and dreamers. Devastating in its conclusion, it completely drew me into the atmosphere and pressure of what it must have been like to alive in America at that time. All details are present—the cocktails, the cars, and in this book most overwhelmingly, the unhappiness."

La Seduction: How The French Play the Game Of Life
(0 Ratings)
Book Favorite

"Sciolino gives us an inside view of how seduction works in all areas of French life, from advertising to politics to interpersonal relationships. “La Seduction” at its core is just a way to appeal to someone by finding common ground, and no one does that like the French! And in my opinion, it’s so much more interesting than the brow-beating we resort to here in the USA."
