Title: Blood and Moonlight
Author: Erin Beaty
Rating: 3/5

Summary: This book is about solving the murder of Perette Charpentier who was brutally murdered in the street. She is the daughter of one the fourteen builders who were killed in an accident when the scaffolding collapsed five years before.

Review: I love the cover the designer did a good job it's so pretty. This book went back and forth between interesting and boring. When Catrin discovered and saw the murder it was interesting and semi caught my attention at this time but than the plot got so slow and could not keep my intrest for long.

Quotes and Thoughts while reading (Spoiler Warning):

1. "I heard everything, smelled everything, felt everything with overwhelming intensity. I'd even heard Perrete's thoughts, like they were hanging in the air with the scent of her perfume - and blood." ......... "The moon had done something to me."

Thoughts: This must have been scary and nerve wrecking for her to experience this.

2. "Perrete had the architect's hammer, and that's what the killer used. When it's found, it will lead straight to Magister Thomas."

Thoughts: He is one the people I suspected as the killer.

3. "Flower of white, curled up tight
In the day you hide from sight.
Selenae know, home to go
When your face begins to show."

4. "If magick is real, maybe I'm risking my soul. After all, if magick was good, wouldn't it come from the Sun?"

Thoughts: Not always plus the moon is better anyways.

5. "The bigger shock is that Magister Thomas knows the Selenae man.".... "Have you considered that perhaps she was meant to find that girl?".... "Moon doesn't cause madness, " the Selanae man is saying. "But it does make madness believe it is safe to come out."

Thoughts: I have a feeling this Selanae man is either her father or realities something isn't adding up.

6. "What happened to your neck? Three long scratches run from Simon's left ear to his collar bone. The marks aren't deep, but thin lines have stabbed over on each where the skin was broken."

Thoughts: Makes me think it's him that killed her maybe the scratches are from her fighting back.

Phoenix for best actor oscar

Contains spoilers, click to show

Wow,what a film.I will admit I was very sceptical when this announced and though for me heath ledger will always be the greatest joker ever,phoenix has given us a much different one but one that is still incredibly brilliant and should win him the best actor oscar.

The film focuses on arthur flecks descent into madness as society slowly crumbles around him and he finds out his mother is not what he thought she was.As he begins to become the clown prince of crime be sees that his actions are inspiring the people of gotham to go out dressed as clowns and riot in the city.

A mention must go to robert de niro as well,following on from his immense performance in the Irishman he gives us yet another as talk show host murray franklin.That grisly ending that sees joker shoot and kill franklin live on his talk show has to be seen to be believed.

An incredible piece of film making.
