This is basically a coming of age drama, but sadly there isn't much that happens in it. Don't get me wrong, it's a fairly entertaining and watchable film. And watching a part of someone's life is interesting, to the point where I wish the film could have perhaps gone on a little longer. The problem is, you come out of this film feeling a little indifferent. The acting was good and the storyline interesting, but I came away thinking I wouldn't have any interest in seeing it again or recommending to anyone. Saoirse Ronan gives a very good performance though and I think she has a very good career ahead of her.

Gideon was somewhat like Lonnie father in terms with whiskey but doe change for the family he is got. Can he really change for the love of Lonnie or does he move on.
Find out by picking this book up and reading it. The Author put some really good issues in the book and Can Lonnie learn to trust or does her mistake ruin it for her and her son.

I have to admit, I saw the twist coming from very early on but this didn't ruin the journey for me. I thoroughly enjoyed the creepy atmosphere building throughout the film and Chris' increasingly awkward interactions with his few fellow people of colour at the party.
This is not a normal horror film, except for the final half hour, instead it is an intense psychological thriller with the added social awkwardness around people's inherent racism and need to talk/not talk about it.
An excellent film with a brilliant cast.

i fell more in love with jade and dillon (didn't think that was possible)
i fell more in hate with macy and benny (if that's possible)
im usually a person who can predict what is going to happen in a book and i speed read but this ......i mean ...... the evil and gore i just did not see some parts coming .
i really don't know what to say without spoiling this book.
lets just say the anger and hate i felt while reading this book was raw and real but at the same time the happiness and glimmers of hope were amazing this book had me gripped all the way through and hooked like an addict also think i literally was shouting out loud at this book .....eeeek i love it now on to the next x

Set in the 1920's, you get a front seat to all that involves--Speakeasy's, prohibition, mobsters, Germans. It's all here, and gives you an insight into what life might have been like.
Rory and Arthur make for a perfect couple! I loved Rory's sass and his spitting alley cat fight. Arthur is the big softie with an even bigger heart, who just wants to help.
With a great cast of characters, this story was gripping from the very start. The pacing is smooth, there were no plot holes I fell through, and the world building is outstanding.
With humour, sass, peril, and betrayal, this book had it all for me. Highly recommended, and when is book two coming out? Absolutely brilliant.
