A lot of time has passed between reading this novel and writing this review yet this book has stayed with me as it's such a powerful read. I got completely drawn in and was fascinated yet horrified of this world that could so easily become a reality.
At times it was hard to follow due to the writing style but I did get more used to it the further I got into the story. The changes in the language used between characters in their daily lives compared to when they escaped within their own minds was really clever. I will be looking for more work done by this author.

A hilarious mockumentary
This is by far one of the funniest mockumentaries I’ve ever seen. It’s a hilarious take on vampires, following them around their daily lives in the run up to the Unholy Masquerade, it has some cracking one liners and truly funny scenes. Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement are fantastic, and the rest of the cast too play their roles perfectly. The rivalry between the vampires and the werewolves is a particular highlight. The dialogue is great and the entire film looks fabulous too. I’ve watched this again for the first time in years, and I haven’t laughed this much in a long time.

Perfect learning tool
Have to say, thus is a great app for languages. It covers basics and advanced elements in fun and easy to understand ways.
Aside from failing because I could not say the word loudly on the train, it uses a range of tools to help you learn.
While it would be better if you could pick specific things to focus on, and allow you to skip ahead of you are already experienced, it is still a great app for practicing. Ideal as a full learning tool, or to enhance your lessons, it is worth a go, we all learn differently.
