Awesome book

This book was so good, from start to finish Carol holds your attention. This book had a bunch of research put into it, it's partially about 9/11 and what some of the people who survived went through during and after it happened. It's weaved in wonderfully with a story about a women who left her daughter at birth, and comes back into her daughter's life; and that of the father's as well. Great read and a truly wonderful book.

"I also read a book recently called Purple Hibiscus by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. She's phenomenal, and she's written so many beautiful books. Purple Hibiscus was also quite moving, about a family - a daughter, and a brother, a mother and a father - and these deep, intricate details of their life and the complexities of it all. You find yourself falling in love with this family and really being taken on their journey, their heartbreak, and their secrets - it is a beautiful and amazing read."

Good sets & SFX
Short snappy thriller
After seeing the trailer I was looking forward to this creature feature. Especially as it's produced by Sam Raimi. It really is a bitesize treat. Under 90 minutes long but it's very intense as a Father and Daughter are trapped in their home during a big hurricane, surrounded by hungry Aligators. The acting is good, the sets impressive and the 'gators look realistic. Much better than many other bigger budget films on a similar theme.
