Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated This Raging Light in Books

*I received a copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*

This wasn't my usual book despite me reading most things romance. It didn't focus mainly on the romance, which may have been my issue with it.

But it also felt a little messed up. It didn't read that smoothly for me--this could be down to it being from Netgalley and not a final version of the book--and struggled to get into it until a good quarter of the way into it.

I may need to sleep on it until I can get my thoughts in better order.

So I slept on it and I'm still unsure of how I feel about it. I didn't gel with it much but I had to keep reading just to see how it was all going to play out. Would her mum come back? Would they be found out about living alone? Who was the person/people who were helping Lucille and Wren with the food and stuff? Would she end up in a relationship with Digby?

All of these questions get answered but afterwards I was just wondering what the message is in the story and I still haven't managed to work it out. Is there a message to be learned in it? I'm not sure.

Flashing Lights Soo Many

Warning- this movie has alot, i mean alot of flashing lights and you will probley get a headache from it. So if youre knowed to have seizures dont go into this movie because all of the Strobes lights. I had a major headache after this movie. Their is a warning before the movie though so thank god for that.

Anyways what did i think of the movie. I thought it was good, to long though sitting at 2h and 50mins long, it is long. And most of the gci is bad, i mean really bad. Some of it is good, but most of it is bad, what happened?

Bill hader and Bill Skarsgard are the best part of this movie. The other cast is good, but hader and skarsgard kill it.

So this movie was going to be 4hrs long, yea 4 freaking hrs. The director had to cut some of the film to make it 2hrs and 50mins long. And yes their will be a directors cut.

Also stephen king makes a cameo and is the funniest part and the best part of the film

This dont live up to the 2017 film. I mean its good, but has alot of problems.

Cant wait for Doctor Sleep though and hopefully thats good.

I much preferred chapter one. The banter the kids had was brilliant

Bit more generous than I'd have been. A 5 or 6 at most from me.

Family friendly

Has some funny moments

The storyline, yet sweet, progresses too quickly. (0 more)

Good for a hopeless romantic like me

So I've wanted to see this for ages as it's Tom Hanks and I think he's a fantastic actor. It's sweet, makes you smile, some points even laugh. It's not something I think I'd actually crave to watch, if it's on TV I'd watch it kind of thing. I have an issue with the beginning. The first meeting with the two main characters, doesn't seem to be as important. She remembers and he doesn't (or doesn't believe it) but the meeting is so brief, why is it so significant to her? She cries when he leaves, she spent like 7 seconds with the boy. The ending isn't ideal either, he just swims alongside a mermaid for the rest of his life? I get when he's with her he's safe but how is he supposed to eat and sleep? Plus the dynamic of their relationship is quite physical, when they are both humans (lets not quibble about that) it's possible. I assume that id they were both merpeople it would also be possible but as mermaid and man they don't really have that anymore. Can't have kids either like he wanted. Probably reading too much into it but still, these things made it's overall rating less for me.
