The Poor Little Rich Girl
6
6.0 (1 Ratings)
Book Rating
The Poor Little Rich Girl by Eleanor Gates is a wonderful story. The story has an older feel to it. I like Gwendolyn's seven year old ponderings to the confusing adult phrases thrown her way. Sometimes I felt sorry about Gwendolyn because of her loneliness.

This book made me realized how important it is to value your children while you have them. Children want and crave our time and attention, along with our love above all else.

I received this book from Dover Publications via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Crime and Comedy
Two American comedians who examine the horrendous things that sometimes happen when people in small towns snap and commit murder. A hilariously funny show, which is respectful to the victims and their families, while laughing at murderers, incompetent law enforcement, and small town behaviour.
True crime and comedy can go together, and laughter and black humour are a good coping mechanism when dealing with horrific circumstances, and these two walk the tightrope between irreverence and insensitivity very well.

Beats Apple
I recently switched away from Apple and got my Pixel 2 and I'm in love. The camera is amazing and has so many more features with a much clearer panarama option. All of my music is still through Apple music as I didn't want to take the time to switch everything over, so that app will glitch sometimes but that is the only real problem I have had since switching.

Prices can sometimes be very high, limited range in free books (0 more)
I absolutely love the kindle app. I have it on my phone and I also have a kindle. I can buy books on my kindle and they will instantly sync to my phone. If I read on one device I can instantly pick up on another. However, I don’t like that I can’t buy books on my phone, I end up saving books and either forgetting and missing deals or forgetting altogether

Cool survival game to play with a friend
I play this with my son. We have several worlds we play. It can be difficult especially when you lose all your stuff and playing legitimately can take forever. There is a cheat option though and for my son it makes the game easier when you just want to go around killing zombies and collecting stuff. The game sometimes freezes or stops working but not enough to cause major problems in playability

Great little tool!
We still need to work out exactly how much this little thing can do but so far so good. We have it set up to play songs from Spotify and mainly use it for music. It has come in very handy for cinema listings, weather, and as some entertainment when we just feel like asking silly questions. I imagine it will be invaluable once we start using it to it’s full potential.

This is the second book I've read by Jane Corry.

I liked the first one, My Husband’s Wife, and I liked this one just as much.

The story is told between two timelines, 2001 and 2016 which can be confusing sometimes but it worked really well in this case.

Fantastic characters, including Kitty and Alison, two sisters with very different personalities; Fascinating plot with unpredictable twists. Very engrossing story!
 
I am looking forward to Jane Corry’s next release.

Thanks NetGalley and Penguin UK – Michael Joseph for the opportunity to read and review this fantastic novel.

I went to the cinema to watch this half dreading it as thought it would be very slow. Instead i got into it from the first moments instantly engaged into the live of Brain (micheal cain) as i meet the rest of the gang i could help but laugh at their stories and in genral how they interacted with each other.

I sometimes got lost in the cockney slang but most of the time even if i didnt know for sure i got the gist of what they meant.

Maggie O'Farrell | 2017 | Biography

Book Rating
This is a collection of 17 near death experiences which are well written and engaging. Each chapter is illustrated at the start by showing us the body part which nearly caused the death of O'Farrell, I thought this was a nice touch. Sometimes I fumbled a bit whilst reading through this book and ultimately got a bit jumbled in places too. I think the confusion would of been solved if the incidences were written in chronological order. It felt a bit too all over the place rather than a good, smooth read.
