ClareR (5632 KP) rated Wayne's World (1992) in Movies
Apr 22, 2018
I haven’t watched this in quite a while, and as last night was ‘Family Film Night’, and this was free on amazon prime, I thought we might as well watch it.
My 11 and 13 year olds thought it was hilarious. Honestly, I thought it was very funny too. It never gets old. And the Bohemian Rhapsody bit has to be one of my favourite parts in a film (like, ever!).
I don’t know whether this would get made now, but I’m glad it was made then! The whole ‘Shwing’ bit went down VERY well with my young teenaged/ pre-teen boys. Unsurprisingly!

Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Final Destination (2000) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
Released 17 years ago in March 2000, Final Destination revolutionised the teen-slasher genre for 00s after Scream did so well for the 90s generation of horror buffs.
The premise was perfectly realised as high-school students tried their best to cheat death after a horrific disaster. The plane sequence in this film still holds up today and remains one of the best horror moments in the last couple of decades.
The acting on the other hand, left a lot to be desired. Though a young Devon Sawa was a magnetic leading presence.

Maxine Taylor is the queen of the red carpet interviews. But her scoop at this year's Oscars, troubled teen star Halsey Hamilton, turns to tragedy when Halsey collapses at her feet. When no one else thinks it might be murder, Maxine decides to find out. I bought this book only because it had Jerrilyn's name on the cover (love her Madeline Bean books), and I'm glad I did. While the mystery was rather light, the book was fun from beginning to end.

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 in Books
Jun 18, 2018
Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 by Eric Esquivel, Stefan Petrucha is a quirky comic that early teen readers will enjoy. This book was a quick and easy read. The book is full of puns, jokes, silliness and action. In this book the reader is given 12 different comics. Before the comic this is a short biography interview of some of the authors and illustrators. This book will be entertaining to readers to like comedy and graphic novels.
I give this book 4/5 stars.
I received this book from Papercutz via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I laughed, I teared up, another great read from Kristan Higgins. Making my way through her backlog led me straight to Liam and Posey.
I felt a similarity to Posey in certain situations and personality moments. I felt like Liam made it full circle understanding himself as a teen to a single father.
Stacia and Max got a little overwhelming as did Kate and her blatant truth telling and Gretchen the boob who was whining constantly. I was able to overlook those annoyances though and really enjoy the meat of this book.
Plus I’m a sucker for a cute great dane.

Kate (355 KP) rated The Kissing Booth (2018) in Movies
Jan 24, 2019
This is a typical american teen flick where a girl as a crush and hasn't kissed a boy before. Trouble is there is lots of errors such as drinking is not legal in the US until they are 21 and they are obviously teenagers but lots of alcohol fuelled parties. The boy is question was supposed to be several years older than the girl and yet they were in the same class at school and your mother was ill in hospital for several years and yet she had a younger brother. Some hunks for teenage girls to ogle over.
