Album Favorite

"This album contains four of the most-played songs on our iTunes, so we definitely have gotten a lot out of it! It’s a beautifully crafted album that bridges the gap between electronic music and songwriting so perfectly."

It's shorter than the book it's based on but that's to be expected. However, a lot of scenes I like that featured the relationship between the parents and their children were cut. Oh well, I still enjoyed it.

"Michael bought this for me last year and I’d never read a book like it before. Since then I’ve discovered stuff like John Fante, Knut Hamsun… I read a lot more now I’ve discovered this style of writing.”"

"If for no other reason (and there are a lot of other reasons!), Sweet Movie is worth a watch just to see the Viennese Actionist Otto Muehl playing the role of a man-baby being tickled until he . . ."

Finished the last mission yesterday, it was more fiddly than I expected but I have enjoyed playing this game. Its nice to meet a lot of the baddies from the Spiderman world and go to RAFT.

Fun game.

This was the first Miyazaki film I could watch in theaters, and I am so glad for the experience. This, however, will rank low in my Miyazaki ranking. It felt like a lot was missing from this film.

A real marmite film
The real problem with the film is the way it has been marketed. From the trailer I was expecting some sort of creepy horror not miles away from Rosemary's baby. Actually it's quite different and uses a lot of symbolism without making it that obvious for the first half of the film. After a bit of research it does make sense and it's well acted. For many though it will come across as a very strange film that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Gripping, difficult to put down (1 more)
The suspense and tension was really well built
I wish it had been a little bit longer, the ending felt a little rushed (0 more)
I had a lot of fun reading this book. This has been compared to Scream a lot, and I can see why. There are similarities, but not so many that you know whats going to happen. I found it really difficult to put down.

* I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher for review via Netgalley. This has not influenced my review.

Fire and Ice
I really enjoyed this book to be fair there is a lot of similar stories in the ya genre about at the moment that being said I love the dynamic of Ruby and Arcus. As leads they where so dimensional and so believable the fact there may be similar story around take nothing away from this one. It was well written and a great read the just the opposition of fire and ice is also well done
