Here me out, Lake Placid 2 is definitely a big shit pile - awful, terrible dialogue, some of the absolutey worst CGI I've ever seen, actors who change accents suddenly, and an all round lazy re-hash of the first film, but somehow, it's still relatively entertaining. It doesn't take itself too seriously. It's the very definition of ironically bad. It's what Sharknado wishes it was.
They also replaced Oliver Platts character with the boss that smacks Chandlers ass a whole bunch in Friends which is low key hilarious.

So, so, shit. But kind of great.

Fantastic debut
Contains spoilers, click to show
A wonderful debut from C. Robert Cargill. The novel follows the lives of two boys, Ewan and Colby. Both boys have a fantastical journey ahead of them, Ewan is stolen by fairies from his parents at an early age by a specialist child stealing fairy (Dithers) and Colby meets a djinn (Yashar) who agrees to grant him wishes which leads him to see the world.

While sounding at first like a magical fairy story you soon realise the story does carry a certain sadness and darkness. The djinn for example is cursed to only ever grant wishes that end in turmoil. You learn this through small chapters that centre around telling stories about the characters in the book, which I found to be a wonderful way to build chacterisation.


Despite being quite dark the book does well to build on characters enough so that you do find yourself getting attached to them. So not only are the characters well thought through but they bring enough personality and emotion to evoke lots of feeling in the reader.


While I don't promise this book will bring you a happy ending, its hard to put down and will certainly have you wanting to move on to the sequel.
