Beautiful fairy tale for modern times (1 more)
Excellent worldbuilding
Found it hard to separate the book from the author - several times I could easily imagine Gaiman sitting at his desk writing this, rather than making me get lost in the story. Made the 'romantic' scenes a bit awkward (0 more)
A beautifully-written fairy tale

Nice!
This movie turned out to be an excellent watch! Good acting, good cinematography and effects. The story played out very well and keeps you interested the whole time. Some parts were a little predictable but not too bad. If you enjoy demonic possession movies, you'll enjoy this one. Definitely worth a watch!
  
The Highwaymen (2019)
The Highwaymen (2019)
2019 | Crime, Drama, Mystery
A good retelling of Bonnie and Clyde from the perspective of two former Texas rangers, Costner and Harrelson make a great team and the banter between them is excellent, this version glorifies the good guys and shows how great detective work from two old pro's couldn't be overlooked, gripping and intelligent stuff.

Out of all the novellas so far in this series this one has to be my favorite. Mark goes home to be with his parents after discovering what happened to Rebecca. His mother is having surgery for breast cancer and Mark discovers Crystal can be a welcome distraction. An excellent quick read.

Horror Masterpiece
I love horror movies. This is one of my favorites for the sheer brutality, originality and excellent directing. Rob Zombie has always been a great artist in my mind whether it's his music, artwork or movies. This sequel was light-years better than the first movie, imo. Good job, Rob.

Cinematic Gold
Excellent actors. Again, Rhett Rheese has written a winner. Though this isn't like your average zombie movie, I think it really revived the genre. It stands out from the running, shooting and gore that is the Hallmark for most zombie movies and is a great movie to watch with friends.

Another John Green fave
Green does an excellent job writing a believale female protagonist who struggles with her mental health. If you like his other books, you'll like this one too. I enjoyed reading it. I was laughing and crying throughout most of it.
