"High and Low is my personal favorite Kurosawa movie. I love everything about it: the chamber piece of the first half, the sprawling police hunt that follows, the fact that Toshiro Mifune’s character is so committed to making high-quality women’s shoes. And there are so many great moments throughout: the pink smoke, the train sequence, the amazing ending scene. I find it so stunning and effective, and I love the way the film gets at themes of class and social inequality in the form of such an exciting procedural crime thriller."

This kept me guessing from the first page. We don't figure out what she's doing at the police station for quite a few pages and it just goes from there. It was very intriguing. I can't say too much without giving the story away.

I liked the budding romance between Liva--strange name, so I had to mentally change it to Livia all the time--and Jaime but I would have loved them to finish what they started about 80% in. It'd been building for so long!! Nevertheless, I really liked this book.

Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.



The beginning of this one seemed promising and I was looking forward to where the duo were going, but the film swerved off into some fairly boring territory quickly. I was left fidgeting and querying (after my many years of watching crime dramas and reading forensic science books) how any of them managed to convince the police of their guilt/innocence.
