⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5
⭐️⭐️ 1
DNF 1

I had a huge 7 5⭐️’s this month! My absolute favourite was House of Blood and Earth I cried buckets and got so invested in the book!
One of my 5⭐️’s was #fromabox The Silver road was just so good and I highly recommend it!

Jessie Keane and Peter McKeirnon are fast becoming two of my favourite authors and you couldn’t get two books further apart lol.

My DNF this month was an indie book and I just couldn’t get along with it!

I’m hoping to add a few more than 18 in July it’s been a busy month!

I think it was a little short, but other than that, perfect. (0 more)

A little known must-see.

Biopic about the graffiti artist turned art superstar Jean-Michel Basquiat, and directed by his real life friend and fellow artist Julian Schnabel.

Basquiat was sort of an artist's artist- if you talk to anyone in fine arts they generally love his work- but not so well loved by those outside this world. That said, his life story is amazing for even those who don't actually like the work.

This movie is star-studded, especially for an indie film- and even the lesser known actors (at the time...some have gotten really famous after this movie) are really powerful.

The visuals are wonderful, as befits a painter-turned -director. (And Mr.Schnabel is a real renaissance man, anyway)

Superfantastic!

Cool guitar soundtrack by Neil Young

Indie Western Wizardry

Seemingly meek & mild William Blake (Depp) travels from Cleveland to the town of Machine, with all his hopes pinned to taking up a a promised position as an accountant. Soon after arriving he finds the job already taken and his path taking an unexpected and deadly turn, that leads him into the spirit world of Nobody, his new and strange Indian friend.
This film is a little dark, alot violent, pretty mysterious and atmospheric. As well as the amazing work of Depp and Farmer, there is a star studded cost including, Robert Mitchum, John Hurt, Gabriel Byrne, Billy Bob Thornton & Iggy Pop to name a few. Depp is nothing less than brilliant as he evades those hunting him down and as he follows Nobody deeper and deeper into his unusual world.
