Based on a true story
Based on the life and book by the same name by Susannah Cahalan, this movie follows the events of a 21 year old girl who suddenly begins experiencing strange flu-like symptoms. She goes to a doctor who tells her that all of her tests came back clear and there's nothing wrong with her. As she continues to work through the strange symptoms, they become increasingly severe. She begins to have seizures, psychotic episodes of paranoia, and is diagnosed with one mental illness after another. None of which explain why Susannah was previously a perfectly healthy 21 year old girl or what brought on the strange symptoms. Her family pushes to find answers where the team of doctors believe she belongs in a psychiatric facility. The movie is a little slow paced but I believe it was necessary to really encompass the severity and impact of the situation that Susannah and her family experienced. Definitely worth a watch.

Better than suicide squad
I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie, I liked suicide squad but didn't think it was brilliant and I thought it would be a big mistake splitting harley from the joker, but I was wrong. This girl can really hold her own and was great to see she does have a softer human side to her too. The movie is filled with humour but also kick ass fight scenes. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie from beginning to end and definitely recommend it to anyone.

Beautiful story about a sheltered young girl and her life changing friends!
Contains spoilers, click to show
This was the first RH book I read and I was hooked! I am completely invested in Sangs life as well as all the guys! North is of course the best... I've read all of them up till now, 13 maybe? And CL is writing more as I type!

It's a very sweet story about a sheltered young girl who is scared of her own shadow. She wants to prove her mother wrong and sneaks out only to meet Kota. The first of 9 guys who will slowly change her world. In order of meeting, Kota, Victor, Silas, Nathan, Gabriel, Luke, North, Dr Green, and Mr Blackbourne. Very heartwarming and you fall in love with all the characters a little more each time. I reread each book whenever a new one is released so I've read it quite a lot :) well worth the read as a starter to the reverse harem sub genre.
