A satirical look at the events surrounding the death of Stalin
I enjoyed this satirical look at the events surrounding the death of Stalin in 1953. It was superbly acted especially by Steve Buscemi and Jason Isaacs, both made me laugh at many places I probably shouldn't have been laughing. The scary part is that most of the more unbelievable parts of this film very likely happened in real life.

She is...
This is a book about all Maggie O'Farrell's near death experiences and finally one of her daughter's. Beautiful poetic and hugely honest, although it's the brushes with death that it charters it is the surviving life that flows from the pages. It is a book about being a women, of becoming an adult, of having air in your lungs and another day to love.

Sad/Happy
This movie certainly moves you. It's a family film though kids need to understand about death!
It is a great metaphor that outlines what can happen with life!
The dogs featured have been exceptionally trained and were fantastic!

Emotional
Contains spoilers, click to show
An emotional well written book, the author opens up about the run up to the death of her young daughter who falls ill at the age of three and her life beforehand. She also talks about life after and how her and her family struggled to come to terms with what had happened. I struggled to put the book down and felt emotionally involved whilst reading.

There is no doubt that this book is tense and a cracking read. (2 more)
One to get you thinking for sure, maybe even unnerving!
Superbly written.
Set in an Authoritarian future, where everybody has a designated role in life - aversion to the state is punishable by death

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2099 KP) rated Christietown (A Cece Caruso Mystery, #4) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Cece's latest biography subject is Agatha Christie. But instead of beefing up the section on Agatha's real life disappearance, she's investigating the mysterious death of someone at the Agatha themed community Christietown. Slow at times as the book follows other things in Cece's life, but a fun addition to the series.
