Dark twist on a classic story
Fantastic take on a classic novel
Just read it! seriously!
I had this book bought for me by my SO because he knows I love Alice in Wonderland, so I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book. I definitely wasn't expecting to love it, but I did, I honestly couldn't put it down.
I love books with a bit of a dark twist, especially classic lit like Poe. If you love the classics and dark literature then this book is for you. Henry takes all the characters you love from Wonderland and makes them new and sinister. It's a fantastic take on a classic novel and I cannot recommend it enough.
I recommend book 2 in the chronicles too!

Well my streak continues...that would be the streak where I enjoy a book much more than I do the movie adaption. I don't usually see a movie & then read the book, but in this case I did just that. I saw this movie ages ago & enjoyed it, but damn the real story has so much more color & life to it than the movie. It really makes you think about life, love, & forgiveness. What an amazing story on the power of love & how your perspective on things changes throughout your life. Your experiences shape the way you see things & you just may be surprised & how drastically those experiences can shift your whole view of a situation.
I adore this book! It is very easy to get lost in.

Well I think I've missed a few entries as this is now the 7th entry in the Tremors series. Seen the first 4 and they did go very budget after the first 2 films.
This has the same old plot really, this time a big game hunter has set up a Graboid hunt on a remote island. Filmed in the lovely islands of Thailand. As usual things get out of hand and who who else do you turn to to deal with the problem than good ol' Burt Gummer.
The effects are pretty good, and this seems to have been influenced by Predator in a few scenes. Still tongue in cheek but you know what you are getting by now. One for Tremors fans otherwise you're not missing much.

Brilliant court room drama
I hadn't watched the film in ages and then suddenly it popped up on tv so I recorded it. I didn't watch it straight away as I thought I really remembered most of what happened but when I did watch it there was so much I had forgotten about!
Some reviews say that Demi Moore is wooden but I actually think she holds her own in this film. Cruise is brilliant as always, playing the part of the cocky but clever lawyer who goes after one of the big guns (Jack Nicholson).
For anyone who hasn't watched it, you really should, you won't be disappointed! Are we clear?

Feb 10, 2018
Quite a strange film...to be honest though it might have sounded good on paper and the twists and finale probably sounded interesting enough. The main problem is if you watch many films like this you could probably figure it all out within the first 10 minutes, I did. So what could have been great ends up being quite predictable and it becomes a slow film, even at 80mins long to an obvious conclusion. The filming style was ok, not quite Rec or Blair witch, but hand held and up close do add to the atmosphere of the film. A missed opportunity as there seem to be a lot of similar style films out at present.

This books is really different in terms of Romance. I wonder sometimes if the mother Germma was doing something wrong by not telling the father of the baby. She should have told him and let him decide. She was so afraid that see was in a Panic when he showed up at the hospital.
Tate was there for another reason. Germma was more afraid of what Tate would do than wonder if maybe if he was going to take her son away. You will be surpise to learn that all they did for their son and Tate family name along with some other surprises. If you enjoy Romance this is good book to read.
