Curvy and the Canid is a wolf shifter story set in Sweden involving the Norse gods. From that alone, I wanted to read this story!

Told from multiple points of view and in the present tense, this story explains about Saskia and Einar. She is a BBW in a country where most are 'skinny-minnies' (big generalisation there from me). She is successful in her chosen career but lacks the confidence to go it alone as an artist. Einar is the Missing Duke and we find out his story too. Together, these two have to overcome a curse and prove that true love can heal all wounds.

This is only a novella and yet it packs a punch. I'm not too keen on novellas as I prefer my stories to have a bit more to them. However, I have to say, with this one, the story is all there! There is nothing missing from this tale and each character is fully developed. You get the side characters who obviously aren't as big as the main ones but they are still three-dimensional.

I loved the setting for this story and can only hope we see more of this setting in future books. Einar and Saskia make a great couple, good for each other in so many ways. With sexy times and lots of love, this was a brilliant story and I can't wait to read more.

Amazing Sfx, especially for the Horseman
Great Gothic film
I love this film! It's a perfect mix of horror, comedy and action. It has a good story, strong cast and great SFX. Lucky enough to have seen it at the cinema and have watched it loads of times since! One of Tim Burton's best films.

I love the cover but unfortunately this read simply just wasn't for me. I didn't find myself caught up in the story nor did I find the characters to be interesting.

Movie for those who love history
FOr me an avid person who loves history this was right up my alley. I was able to solve every clue but still was amazed by certain aspects. I am glad they made a sequel and I hope they keep coming up with more but, only if same cast is used.

Originally well written, wonderfully directed, and with stellar performances from the entire cast, The Book of Henry is a great family film with a touching story about love, loss, and the meaning of family even with its incredibly dark themes.

I was definitely expecting witches when I saw the title of the book but was pleasantly surprised by vampires :P I love the extremely aware links it makes towards Dracula. The characters are also superb. Yet again somehow Stephen king manages to include so many characters whilst still holding onto the story and no confusion. I was absolutely gripped.

I like the concept of the story , but if you are a fan of th fairy tale sweet versions these dark ones might really not be for you. I didn’t expect to like to much . Better than I thought it would be.

Fantastic Beasts: CoG Simply put, falls short of its predecessors. Revelations in the movie are just put there to make the story fit into the original source material of the Wizarding World. Outrage over the overall film and not its characters afflictions should have been forefront.
