The Women's Murder Club only takes on two cases this time around. First, there are the skulls found in an actor's garden. Then there's the man killing drug dealers. I was actually surprised to find that the ladies worked together to solve one of these cases, which hasn't happened for a while. In the end, it's a Patterson book, but it was fun.

A must see family film
Dont get me wrong, its possible that it may not win many awards. As a family film is very enjoyable for both kids and adults. The attention to detail was amazing and some of the one liners had both kids and adults laughing together. For adults one big problem may arise, your kids may want rabbits as pets now ?

Should have locked its self up
This movie had a lot of potential but from the start you can tell that they didn't really know where they were going with it the acting was pretty bad the plot while there just never really took off and near the end it's kind of like they didn't know what they were doing and just slapped a bunch of stuff together and then Tada it was over, very weird pacing overall definitely let down.

A Great Summer Read
I started reading this book and couldn't stop. The chemistry between Danni-Rose and Benson is off the charts! Allison Mullinax has written a romance that sucked me in from the beginning and refused to let go. The writing flows so beautifully and the characters are great together. I loved the amount of support Benson showed for Danni and I loved the development of Danni. There was SO MUCH I wasn't expecting to happen in this!

Okay, I really wanted to love this book. It combines one of my favorite books (World War Z) and Vampires! Unfortunately, this book felt way too similar to World War Z that I couldn't help but compare it to Max Brooks' novel. The stories are mingled together and it felt that at times the storylines jumped around. I was never really invested in the characters and many of the short stories were flat.

Ultimately, I wasn't too disappointed, but I wasn't impressed either.

Grin Inducing fun.
Loosely based on the 80's arcade game, Rampage is a fantasy action film that whips along at a cracking pace.

There are loads of great action sequences and the humour is superb, throughout.
You'll need to switch your brain off, though, as it's very far fetched.

My son and I watched this together (he's 12) and both left the cinema with massive grins.

Excellent fun.

Personally, I wasn’t very impressed by it and thought it could’ve been much better. I absolutely loved the first one as it had a strong foundation building the characters and an interesting storyline, as well as a phenomenal soundtrack. The sequel just didn’t seem to be able to follow its predecessor’s footsteps as the storyline was not only confusing but poorly put together. The action scenes were great but the comedy was a bit over the top with an emphasis on dick jokes.

Due to the multiple perspectives some of the storylines seem to take forever to really progress, which I found quite frustrating as I just wanted my favourite characters and more of them.

However you do need all of the perspectives to blend together to make the books and for them to work the way they should.


I did still enjoy the book and would recommend it, as I understand that with so many characters stories to tell it is going to take time.

When will Tennyson and Lucy ever get a chance?! It is actually starting to annoy me now, can they please just get to be happy.

We are starting to get more characters and more of an idea of the big picture of what is happening in the supernatural world and the troubles they must face.

I just hope whatever happens Lucy and Tennyson get a chance to be together and the books keep being as funny and lighthearted in their entertainment.
