I think i liked the beginning more than the end. It was a great concept and i thought it was really well done until near the end when their love was declared for each other and it turned into the regular chic-lit meets paranormal romance, and i was disappointed by that. Nevertheless i had enjoyed it up until about the 80% mark.

All this book did was frustrate me! Chick-lit is definitely not my favourite genre, however I can cope with it on occasions. This book is one of those that reminds me why I steer clear of chick-lit!
Lovely little fairy tale story line, boy meets girl, girl meets boy and guess what... that fall in love! But do they admit it? Nope, not until your brain is crying from the nonsense of it all! I wish these books would come up with a different story line of boy and girl love each other but don't tell each other for ages, Pride & Prejudice tells that story perfectly well, we don't need anymore!

An alternative horror comedy with classic monsters who house share, who would have thought this up as an idea and whoever green lit this took a risk that pays off even though it's quite a divisive and Marmite movie.
It seems as though it's one large skit without a plot, but each of the characters play off each other so well that this is easily forgotten..a surprisingly pleasing watch.

I'm a little devestated. I've written a paranormal story plan and a lot of this was a lit like it. Back to the drawing board. This is a very very good film, as The Shining was. This could have ended up being a cheese feast but it continuous the iconic scare in new ways through a seperate story. Absolutely brilliant.

What if women could find a way to teach men how to behave properly? Well, Eric Garcia (yes, a man) came up with one idea, and he wrote about it long before the #MeToo movement. This novel has been called “Sex and the City meets Misery,” as well as a “brilliantly twisted take on chick lit,” and you can see what I think of it in my review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2013/12/14/teaching-men-manners-is-no-laughing-matter/
