Night Night Bible Stories is a collection of stories for children. Parents can read them a story from this book each night. It good for parents and grandparents a like. The book is done well. I enjoyed each story and it understandable for children.

It was able to understand it better then reading the bible itself. It got stories from the old testament and some for the new testament. It broken down into these two parts. Though they flow together nicely in this one book.

The picture are done well. I really got the story behind each one with the pictures. The words and phrases were done well. I was really enjoyed them prase that chance with each story that you read. Some of the stories I got and knew well. I also got new stories I have not known or did not remember. It was really well done for me to understand and read.

Children will be able to grasp the stories being read to them and later be able to pick up the book and read themselves once they have learn to read. This book is worth having for young readers and parents. You can give it as a gift if you want or keep it yourself or for your children or grandchildren. Each story is different but they are written well. The easy to read and simple as well.

Incredible Cast
Although I was expecting this film to be good as it was. I was definitely not expecting it to become one of my favourite films. It managed to tackle a very difficult subject in an incredible good and tactful way. The cast was incredible with both well known stars like Will Smith and Helen Mitten to the (what I'm sure is to be) incredibly promising not as well known stars such as Jacob Latimore. Also the twist at the end was amazing! They also managef to include a good amount of humour whilst at the same time not making light of a very real and serious issue. All in all it well exceeed my expectations and easily made it's way into my top films.

Voice acting
Great Animation
A fun movie for everybody
The only kind of movie that I have ever fell asleep watching in the cinema, is a kid’s movie, but there is no chance of you falling asleep during this one. Funny, witty and a lot of fun. The animation is fantastic, the voice acting is on point and if you are a pet owner the whole thing becomes more relatable and even funnier. This is how to make a great kids film, it doesn’t just totally appeal to the kids and ignore the adults watching, but it is also totally family friendly and the characters are all well written, well voiced and they all bounce off of each other very well to make probably the best kids movie I’ve seen this year.

Received this book as a gift from a party.

Sticking to my usual rules - I'm not gonna give anything away.

So - let's start with writing style - good. It flicks between the heroine and heroes pov. Every time the pov changed - it was headed by a name. Made me feel a little thick that I needed to be told but I know some people do struggle reading pov swap books. So I'll overlook that. Written well. Not many errors.

Storyline - well laid out and the writer knew what journey she wanted to take us on. it was emotional and sensual. Almost like a dirty sexual modern day fairy tale where the guy gets the girl after trial by fire.

Sex scenes were well written, creative and steamy as hell. Will warn - public masturbation, and some girl on girl.

Did I like this story - well... Yes and no. Well written and well thought out, steamy. the only bit that put me off were the sins, but they were integral to the story line to be fair, so I can't grumble too much. Liked the back stories and how their lives were linked after an incident in both their pasts.

Definitely worth a read. <3

I enjoyed the kid actors in this version way more than the mini series. A few good scares. Definitely creepy mostly because, well, clowns.
  
There are some incredible books out this year celebrating African American history. I'd definitely add Hunger and Bad Feminist by Roxane Gay as well.

At the start of the month dedicated to African American history, here’s The Guardian's rundown of what to read, including Paul Beatty and Octavia Butler.
