Chris Pratt - what's not to love?
Extremely quotable
BABY GROOT
My favourite Marvel Heros at it again
I absolutely LOVED this film. Actually, I think I enjoyed it more than the first, which I didn't think was possible! It is brilliant, funny, witty - ( Baby Groot is adorable.) Since having seen this film, I have had the soundtrack on repeat - it is an instant mood booster, I have been quoting it non-stop, and I would gladly watch it again and again.

I can't even explain how much I loved this book! I adore Anna Kendrick. She's always struck me as a famous person that doesn't think they re famous & would therefore be amazing to hang out with. This book only solidified that idea in my head even more. She seems so normal, it was like your best friend was sitting next to you drinking a beer & telling you about their life. It was an easy, entertaining read. She is so witty & has experienced so much. She tells her story like she can't quite even believe it. Great read!

Holy wow, this was wonderful. It has magic, to be specific earth magic, and it has mystery and love and paranormal. There is fighting, making up, love, night life, magic, and so much more. Alex Conner is witty, sexy, strong, and a mystery. Parker Sinclair's writing takes you on a whirlwind of emotions and intrique and mystery. It is an amazing start to a wonderful series and it will pull you into this fast paced story that you have to keep reading until it's over and you still need more. I cannot wait for book 2 and to see what happens next.

Sweet but thin storyline
Nikesh Shukla's latest literary escapade is sweet, exploring familial ties and how fate plays a role in this family. The narrators include terminal cancer patient Neha, Kenyan-born father Mukesh, and hapless comedian brother Rakesh, each playing a role in their so-called pre-determined destinies.
The writing is witty and it's always wonderful to hear voices that represent BAME communities in modern Britain. But unfortunately it is a little thin in plot and storyline. It is a host of voices speaking about their perspectives and intricately joining together. An easy read.

Alice (12 KP) rated How to be Champion in Books

A cracking good book. I'm not one for autobiographies much but I needed a break from my usual genre and <i>How To be Champion </i> was the perfect book to choose. It was funny, witty and full of no fucks.
I found myself laughing so much during the read of this book and I thought Sarah's ability to take the piss out of herself while not giving a rats arse was brilliant. We need more people who can do that - people who are so unbothered by other people's opinions.
Hats off to you Sarah. Champion book.

Top bitesize TV series
Finally got round to watching this after hearing many good reviews. A very short series of 6 episodes and only 25 minute long episodes. It follows the life of a 30 year old dealing with life, relationships, family, love, grief and sex. It's very funny with a sharp, witty script. It's similar to @Peep Show - Season 1 in some ways, breaking the 4th wall talking to the viewer. Also similar tone but this time from a female perspective. If you haven't seen it yet check it out!

Another great series
Well I've managed to whizz through both series of Fleabag in no time. Again only 6 episodes long around 25 minutes long each. So great when you have a short amount of time to fit something in.
Set around a year after the events of the 1st series with all the same characters again. It's just as funny as the first series if not quite as good, but there is not much in it. If you loved the first series, who doesn't? Then you'll love the humour in this just as much.
