I want the Library
I was fortune enough to win tickets through PureHmv to the London Gala screening of this film weeks before it was out in cinemas. As a Disney Addict this was a dream come true.

I was unsure when they announced a live action Beauty and Beast being a huge fan of orginal. That being said I loved every moment from start to end. Even new song like Evermore and how does a moment last forever. Normally I hate playing about with music but they had Alan Menken so Disney knew what it was doing.


For me the stand out actor was Joss Had his comic timing and enthusamism of the character is contagious.


My only fault if this film they could of had a bigger Library

Curiosity killed the...
Okay, so the concept has been done a hundreds times before. It's Alien meets Gravity. Except the creature itself is not even remotely close to the beauty that was Giger's original alien, this seems to be mass of white gloop with a face of some kind. I did have to keep fast forwarding bits, because predictably there was a bit of G-force-related bloodshed. The acting from the usual A-listers Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds was obviously as good as expected. But the storyline was ultra thin, to the point that I had forgotten where the creature had randomly appeared from. There is a twist at the end - however, it's pretty foreseeable given how much emphasis is put on the "final plan". Not going to go down in any sci-fi history books, that's for certain.

Magical realism at it's most beautiful
This book is jam packed with magical realism. The imagery is beautiful, it is constantly surprising, and I couldn't get enough.
There are women who rise from the dead, seals who forge unbreakable bonds with swimming fishermen, Gods, Goddesses, and people borne of fire.
Tasmania is imagined as a fantastical landscape, steeped in beauty and folklore - it's a place I've never been to, but this book certainly piqued my interest. I can honestly say that each chapter is a surprise. I didn't see any of the storyline coming. There's no guessing at what's going to happen - and I loved that unpredictable journey through this book.
If I could give this book more than 5/5, i most certainly would!
Many thanks to ReadersFirst and the publisher for my copy of this beautiful book.
