I’m a sucker for thrillers and this is no exception. This one is a plot twist and a very good one. She makes you think that the real antagonist is the chiefs daughter when the real culprit is the last person you’d expect it to be. This book had me on the edge of my seat and I could not put it down. If you enjoy a good mind blowing, plot twist, this is the book for you
Roxanne (13 KP) rated Maisy Goes to the Museum: A Maisy First Experience Book in Books
Nov 14, 2018
A fun little book about a trip to the Museum. My daughter didn't enjoy this one as much as the other Maisy books we have read, I think that may be because of the words used. Many of the words were long and complicated for a toddler so she lost interest. Also, the sentences were quite disjointed. Another thing that could be a problem is that not all Museums will offer your child everything that is in this book which may lead to disappointment. Other than the above issues, the book is nice and bright and has some really good illustrations.

Should Have Waited For DVD Release
My daughter and I love horror so we knew this was a must see for us. I can honestly say that I should have waited for it to be on DVD so I could have saved some money as this movie left me feeling unsatisfied. I got more of a kick in watching people jump out of their seats when they got startled. Maybe I just expected more of this movie than I got? Instead of being scared I found myself laughing.....yes.... I am quite disappointed by this one.

Gary and Tanya smash it out the park again
once once again Gary Chudleigh and his artist of choice Tanya Roberts smash the sci-fi dystopian western genre out of the park.
I love the fact that plagued is a comic I can enjoy with my daughter. We both have very different takes on the story but can agree that we love what we are reading.
Part 1 was very strong but 2 is even stronger leading me to believe we could be in for a hell of a ride in part 3.

Pretty standard, but reasonably enjoyable
Standard issue murder and revenge story, which sees Jackie Chan play a dad who sees his daughter blown up in a terrorist attack in London before going after government officials and shady henchmen to try and find the truth.
I was puzzled how a Chinese, London businessman would have been able to pull off all the things that happen in the movie, but that is explained to some extent.
It was nothing ground breaking but worth watching to pass a couple of hours if you just want a bit of action and nothing much else...
