Funny Horror
An ok Horror with a comedy slant. Featuring a nice cameo from Robert Englund. A bunch of serial killers escape an asylum to take over a Horror park based on their murders.
It's funny in places and the gore generally is OK, although very cheap looking in some scenes. Just a bit hit and miss with the comedy and scares a lot of the time. Often somewhere in the middle of not funny or scary enough.
Check out @Hell Fest (2018) on Netflix, similar but slightly better I felt with a cameo from Tony Todd.

Average Thriller
Missed this at the cinema so caught it on Sky cinema. Pretty average Thriller featuring an undercover informant. Events make him not sure who to trust and put him and his family at risk.
The main problem is this feels like a lot of other undercover plot type films but no where near as good. Some of the decisions made and actions taken didn't make much sense. It has quite a low budget feel to it overall. Lots of twists and turns to a predictable ending. It's all a bit clichéd by the end. An ok thriller but nothing special.

Aj (472 KP) rated Let's do it -The Authorised Biography of Victoria Wood in Books
Nov 26, 2020
Authorised by Victoria Wood's family
This is an amazing book covering Victoria's life from birth . Features stories and anecdotes from people who worked with Victoria,her family and friends.
Being a huge fan I've read a lot of books about Victoria and this one is the best,so much information that I didn't know and featuring photos I hadn't seen before.
It gives us an insight into what Victoria was like "off camera".
I highly recommend it if like me you're a fan of comedy .

The cover of this book has statements such as "Ten-year-old Jonah can't speak, but it is time his family listened," and "Jonah has never spoken, yet somehow he communicates better than all of the adults in his life." While Jem Lester's debut novel is about Jonah, a child with severe Autism, it is also about a whole lot more than that. This is why I entitled my review of this book, "The Volumes of Silence" despite the cliché. You'll understand better what I mean, from my review of this wonderful novel here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2017/05/27/the-volumes-of-silence/

4.5 stars.
I thought some of this book was ridiculous but i fell in love with it anyway. Especially Roman and his relationship with Kasha. Oh, and her robotic arm. Not that i didnt love the rest of the cast but those two were my favourites. These girls got up to some right mischief but still managed to win two amazingly hot guys. I was in stitches quite a few times with their exploits and didnt want to put the book down at all.
Definitely recommend this if you like contemporary romances with quite a lot of humour in them. I look forward to reading more books by these authors.

3.5 stars, mainly because Suzanne's books can be too long for my liking a lot of the time and because I got fed up of reading the sex scenes.
I'm pretty picky about my shifter books, preferring vampires to shapeshifters most days, and this one was good but I felt it went on too long.
Character wise I think I liked Marcus the most, though I couldn't really explain why. I also liked Dante. In fact, most of the guys were pretty cool but I did have favourites.
Other than wanting to read book 4, Marcus' book, I haven't decided if I want to read the rest of the series yet.
