"The Sand Pebbles with McQueen is one of those films that shows more of his sensitivity. People tend to think of him as just the badass, and I love the fact that that film lets you see another side of him. And I also think it’s beautifully shot. So that’s another one on my list."

Heartwarming, hilarious and bittersweet
Graeme Simsion's protagonist is utterly brilliant, a good look at some of the social anxieties faced by people on the autism spectrum. While some were a little blatantly obvious - repetition and empathy - others were hidden by quirky mannerisms expressed by awkward geneticist Don Tillman. Good at raising awareness on the subject, it makes it understandable to those who have not come across those with these symptoms.

The plot is intriguing right to the end, a mystery wrapped up in a romcom.

I got this book from the author for a honest review. I am not a big fan of zombie books and honestly this one isn't a lot different for me except that the characters and plot of the book were better then most...I still didnt like the whole zombie eating people thing etc...but honestly I did enjoy the story..there was more to the zombies then just eating people and wasn't a bad story. I would def recommend this story to those who enjoy zombies especially and for those who might be interested in trying a new zombie book just to try one this would be a good one to start with. I am thinking about reading the next book when it comes out. :)

Small Worlds by Caleb Azumah Nelson is an intensely emotional coming of age story, of a Ghanaian Londoner called Stephen.

As a young black man, Stephen feels safety in his small worlds: music, family and friends. And then there is outside those worlds where Stephen feels less safe: places in London where there is brutality or unrest, and University, which is where he really doesn’t want to be, as it’s so far from his friends and family - and his world.

Stephen needs these constants in his life, and when it’s taken away, he’s lost.

Stephen goes to Ghana to see the people and places of his parents youth, and it’s here that he finds some connection with those he loves. When he goes home, he’s able to come to terms with those people he has lost and rebuild relationships.

This was a really moving novel that made me really think about the challenges of culture, family, race and policing in London (in particular).
Recommended.
