See all of my reviews at philomathinphila.com.

I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

M.R. Carey is known for writing "The Girl with all the Gifts" among many others. His latest, "Someone Like Me" has been shelved on Goodreads as fiction, fantasy, horror, thriller, and mystery. "Someone Like Me" is hard to categorize but easy to get sucked into. It is a long book with 500 pages so, if you have plans, make sure to set a timer. It was easy to keep reading without a break. I do not want to give too much away. It's a family drama about Liz, her children, her abuse ex-husband, and her neighbors but it is also much more. If M.R. Carey had left out the rest concerning Fran and Liz's alter-ego, the story would be a well written story about a single mom trying to raise two kids. It is the rest that makes the story extremely interesting. I have always been fascinated with Psychology, thrillers, and fantasy. Mix the three together, add some good writing, and an interesting story and I'm hooked. Carey's writing is descriptive but he does not overdo it.

If you like a book that opens with action and requires you to figure what is going on then this is for you.

Not enough of horror
Over and Over Again
Happy Death Day 2U- should of been good, but in actuality it wasnt. The whole mult-veruse concept just didnt please me. I didnt like it at all. I fell like it didnt fit and it was basically the whole movies length time. So without it you wouldnt have the movie. Take away the mult-veruse concept and focus on the other charcter and why he is going through the same day without the mult-veruse than the movie would be good. It should of just been a mystery thriller slasher film and thats it. Other than that the movie is okay.

The plot: Collegian Tree Gelbman wakes up in horror to learn that she's stuck in a parallel universe. Her boyfriend Carter is now with someone else, and her friends and fellow students seem to be completely different versions of themselves. When Tree discovers that Carter's roommate has been altering time, she finds herself once again the target of a masked killer. When the psychopath starts to go after her inner circle, Tree soon realizes that she must die over and over again to save everyone.

Like i said its a okay movie, i recordmend just watch the first movie and thats it.
