NO ONE KNOWS THE MIND OF A KILLER LIKE EMMA KAVANAGH.

I've been watching you DS Alice Parr.

I saw you trying to save the poor young woman you found in the park.

The woman I tried to kill.

I've been waiting for you to find her family. To find someone who cares about her.

But you can't can you?

You've never had a case like this.

I know everything about you. You know nothing about me.

Even though I'm the man you're looking for.

And you will never catch me...

This was such a good book! I really enjoyed it, well written with a great plot and from what I can gather it continues into her next book. Definitely want to read more from this author.

The beginning

This movie is so good I've seen it twice this week anyway. let's start at the beginning one of the highlights of the movie the giant lizard on on the rampage thru new York I won't give it away but u will get it when u see it. Its hard to believe 20 years have gone bye since the first jackass movie and show and I saw the the first film at the cinema many moons ago so I knew what to expect from the crew stunts glore I felt sorry for ehren macghehey and what they put him thru the course of 90 movie painful to watch in places. What was good to see the next generation of jackasses fresh new blood who were willing to put their bodies including the first female Rachel wolfson on the line. Overall good sequel maybe one day there will a firth jackass movie one day

I am really into YA books where teens are dying. Her previous thriller They Will Never Catch Us had be reading and not stopping because I had to know who the killer was and this read was just the same for me. The cover on this one caught my attention very Baywatch aka #pamcore then I saw it is a Jessica Goodman read and went straight to audible to make my pre-order and it did not disappoint.

The setting of the book is a bougie elite summer camp with a focus on three teens girls. I wouldn't so much call their situation Glamping since a dark secret is looming over a counselor who is waiting to share with her friends. Goldie might be ruining summer with her dark secret and not only that she is risking friendships. She isn't the only one that has been lying and keeping secrets. This becomes apparent when Ava has seen something and there is a death involved. yikes!

"... I think it was called the bus that couldn't slow down"
That quote is, of course, from the incomparable Homer Simpson. Full quote something along the lines of:

"I saw this movie once about a bus that had to SPEED around the city, keeping it's SPEED above 50, and if it's SPEED dropped below 50, it would blow up! I think it was called ..."

Which is a pretty accurate synopsis of the movie as a whole, which stars a post-Bill and Ted (apart for the newest one)/pre-The Matrix Keanu Reeves, and a very early appearance by the future queen of the rom-com Sandra Bullock.

The film has 3 main acts: terrorist attempt to blow up an elevator, the bus bit (which is most of the movie) and finishing off in the subway. Truth be told, it may perhaps run only slightly too long as a result.

Still well worth a watch, though!

The book A Scatter of Light written by Malinda Lo was a very wonderfully written novel and a great read. My reasons for choosing to read A Scatter of Light are I love the theme of the novel and Malinda Lo is one of my favorite authors so when I saw this book it was an automatic read for me. I rated A Scatter of Light a four out of five stars because the book was great from the start to the end of it. It's a coming of age story about discovering bisexuality. It takes place during the first major decision dealing with legalizing same sex marriage by the Supreme Court. During the story Aria Tang West is sent to her Grandmother's after a party gone wrong. She goes there exspecting not to have fun until she meets her Grandmother's gardener. Her Grandmother's gardener changes the outcome of her summer for the better. I hope others enjoy this great read too.

I have to say that with its brilliant cast including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon, Don Johnson, Toni Collette, Ana de Armas and of course Christopher Plummer, Knives Out, for me is one of the best Whodunit movies that I have seen for a long time on the big screen, I’ve seen many theatre productions in this genre and the last movie that I saw like this that had me as excited as Knives Out was Clue with Tim Curry.

This is a movie that has everything you could want from the genre, the mystery, the shifty money-grabbing family, the backstabbing and of course the intrigue of who committed the crime in the first place, yes there are those moments when you do start putting one and one together yourself, but with the subtle twists and turns in Knives Out it still keeps you guessing.
