This one came from out of nowhere
never heard of Claire Fuller before or this book and actually got it in a secret santa at work. Well Santa knows me well because it was bloody fantastic. My poor kids were hungry because I found it hard to not pick it up when I came home from work and hard to put it down afterwards. This is a disturbing and gripping story that is so upsetting because its entirely believable.

Best re-watchable comedy since Friends!
This has got to be one of my all time favourite shows, if I've only got 20mins to spare and want something to watch it's always B99. The characters are well fleshed out and really work well with each other. Most of the jokes hit and even if not laugh out loud are very enjoyable. The standard of acting us very good for an ensamble comedy.

Modern Retro TV
I loved this retelling of the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire coughing scandal, the acting was superb, Sheen did a fantastic job as Tarrant. The story is well told without ultimately giving you an answer. It has an amazing retro feel and I thought I remember this so clearly but when you look back so much if forgotten. Well done ITV for also being able to have a bit of a laugh at themselves!

Little Sacrifices was a mixture of good and bad. The prose was generally well constructed, precise and authentic.

However, I found the plot lines disjointed and scatty. They didn't seem to be woven together very well, more like levered in to suit the whims of the author.

I was initially attracted to the book by the civil rights themes but found it mainly a book about teenage issues. On this basis I think this is more suited to a young adult audience.

Movie Favorite

"I love Mona Lisa. Bob Hoskins and Neil Jordan. It’s such an incredible movie. It’s really, really, really good. It was very, stylistically and in the production design, it’s very ’80s, very late ’70s-’80s looking. And it’s one of those movies that has a song that was written for it, you know, like they used to like to do in the ’80s. [laughs] It’s such an incredibly well made film, and it’s so interesting, a really dark, twisted, well acted story."
