May always feels like a time of shifting balances, with the world tipping between what was and what's still becoming, and it puts me in the mood for stories that carry that same sense of change.

OF LAND AND SKY is set in the imaginary world of Wraidd Elfennol, where peace has held for a long time... until it doesn't 🍃 New Chosen are called, old harmonies start to fray, and Bran and Rhosyn have to figure out who they are while the ground is still moving under them.

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated The Greatest Showman (2017) in Movies

The Greatest Showman (2017)
2017 | Drama, Musical
So first of all, I have to say I never used to a big fan of musicals, although in recent years I’ve been moving towards these genres of movies, with the brilliant La La Land pulling me in deeper to this magical movie genre, so when I saw the trailer for The Greatest Showman I was rather intrigued to see this one, a movie that with its look, kind of reminded me of Moulin Rouge.

The Greatest Showman starts as it means to go on with a fantastic musical opener that pulls you into the world of Barnum and the delights of the big top, then it takes you back to a young Barnum and the poverty that his father and he had to endure.

October Reads

So this month I’ve read 23 and DNFd 5! I had a lot of books DNF this month I just don’t see the point in carrying on with a book that doesn’t hold my attention.
The 23 I read were almost all really good reads.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 8

DNF 5

My absolute favourite book this month was The Vessel by Adam Nevill a book I’ve waited all year for and didn’t disappoint!
I also love The Wife which was from a box!

I didn’t have a book I disliked that I didn’t DNF

I’m moving house in November so don’t think I’ll get through as many!

River Sing Me Home was such a moving read on The Pigeonhole.
Set across Barbados, British Guiana and Trinidad in 1834, Rachel is driven to go and find her sold children when slavery is abolished. You would think that she would be free to do so, but when slavery was abolished, slave owners operated an apprentice scheme - which was simply the same terms and conditions as slavery. So Rachel has to be very careful and remain under the radar of slave catchers.
Rachel’s determination to find her children and her joy when she does find them, the brutality and inhumanity of the slave trade, Rachel’s experiences of love and loss, all add up to a really emotional reading experience.
Recommended.
