A Pleasant Surprise
OMG! I can't believe I spent the day reading this book. I must admit that I honestly didn't think I'd get through this read because at first, I was a bit bored. However, it didn't take long before I realized that I was eagerly turning the pages.
Hanna is super creepy, truly disturbed and knows just how manipulative she can be. Witnessing the dynamics of this young family through the author's writing style was truly a pleasant surprise and I recommend you give this book a try.

Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Final Destination 2 (2003) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
With a slick filming style and better characters, Final Destination 2 improved on its predecessor in almost every way.
The main disaster, a stunning motorway pile-up, is filmed to an exceptional standard with very little in the way of CGI and this makes way for more inventive deaths that have become talking points for fans of the franchise and converts alike.
Taking a more mythical approach, the violence comes thick and fast and this remains the second best edition of the series.

the poems on grief are stunning, heartfelt and heartbreaking: they have real resonance & are definitely what i'll take away from reading this book (3 more)
some beautiful concepts
structural experimentation (although some elements are overused)
sweet & reassuring in places
i don't know if i've read too many poems of this style but some of the poems in this collection felt a little unoriginal or repetitive (1 more)
i should have read this book when i was younger: i feel like it would have a much larger impact on a slightly younger audience, maybe 15-17 year girls

I get that this book is not for everyone, and I can see how it would be enjoyable to some (sort of), but personally I thought that this book was twice as long as it needed to be, was hugely over descriptive, was slow and I just didn't get it.
It was a dragged out story of a journey from one place to another where nothing really that interesting happens...
Unless you are into the Hobbit/Lord of the Rings style books/films etc, I would strongly recommend that you don't read this.

Yes this does kinda add up to The Karate Kid for the Youtube generation, with an MTV makeover. This time using MMA basically like UFC, cage fighting using any fighting style. Despite the obvious plot and seeing this type of film more than a few times, this is pretty decent. It has a strong cast and the fight scenes are well shot. There is an extra on the DVD to get each of the fights in the film broken down into how they were filmed etc which is pretty good.

See like a vampire?
Illustrated in the colours that the vampires of this graphic novel can see, Red, Black and white dominate the wood print style images. No to everyone's preference, and it does tire the eyes after a while of reading, the story starts off humorously but does seem to find it difficult to go further than that, not finding its place successfully throughout the remainder of this Graphic novel. A shame as I think it all had potential.

Beautiful animation (3 more)
Wonderful story
Thought out characters
Great gameplay
In shock
I started playing this game and was a little skeptical. I had heard great things about it, but I thought they were over exaggerating. They definitely weren't. The storyline, characters, and animation style work together to create a game that I couldn't stop playing until I was done. So much dialogue! So much character development! And then a twist at the end that left me in shock. If you haven't played it yet, give it a try!

Always the last few pages
This book, like all others by this author, is a page turner...once you get into the story. This one took me way longer than usual to get hooked. Based on the style of the past books written by Coben, the ending was not a surprise in the least. All of his books are worth reading, this one was more flat than some of the others.
