"That always sticks in my mind; Timothy Hutton, Mary Tyler Moore. Isn’t it devastating? It was just such an amazing performance by Mary Tyler Moore. I love a great family drama. There’s nothing like it, and Judd Hirsch as the therapist. It was just so beautifully written and sad. I love going to movies and crying and feeling moved and like you’ve changed. It’s one of my favorite things. That’s why I wanted to become an actress. I love dark. I don’t mind sobbing in a theater; I love that stuff. You can grieve parts of yourself and parts of your life through characters in movies. That’s the magic of moviemaking and cinema, seeing yourself in the characters. I loved making Other People too because I felt like people all have different experiences about life and grief, grief and death and family, all these beautiful themes."

I was entranced by the cover of this a long time before I realised it was part of the Hearts series. I'd not long since finished the first book which I loved, and I couldn't wait to read more books in this series, and it was only after I'd bought this that I realised it was Jack's story.

I did enjoy this, just not as much as the first. Jay just fascinated me with his magic and the whole back story and everything just blew my mind. This one, Jack seemed hot and sexy and the fire-breathing...but it didn't grab me as much. I wasn't as sucked into the story.

The description for the third book in the series has me intrigued as to what King's story will be about and I've already got it on my kindle to read but I'm not going to read it yet.

"Is it cheating? [Laughs] It’s hard to pick. I wouldn’t necessarily know which. I mean, I love the Goblet of Fire. I don’t know. Maybe the Goblet of Fire. I read those books so quickly when I was a kid, because that whole world was so, like… it took me out of my reality. And I just love magic and I loved that whole world, the creatures, and just how you felt so friendly with all the characters. The way they translated that into movies, I thought was genius. You know when they take a book, and they make it a movie, and you hope that it’s gonna be everything that you hope for and more? To me they just succeeded. I don’t know, I just love them so much. Every time I’m sick I’ll watch a marathon of them and I can repeat all the words."

I really liked this film. Not only the detail and the soundtrack, but the characters and the magic that just bleeds off the screen. I think Forest Whitaker was great, as always, and I loved the Madalen Mills - she was definitely the best part. She brought a liveliness to the film that I don't think could've been achieved without her.

I thought Ricky Martin playing Don Juan Diego was so funny and I would remember every once in awhile throughout the film and it would just make me laugh more and more.

I think the animation of this film is incredible. The backstory makes it all the more special. This film was a long time coming - so many years were poured into it to bring it to the screen and the care and detail shows through the whole movie. This one is a special one.

Featuring bassist Maddie Jay of Maddie Jay and the pH Collective and drummer Jonah Summerfield, The Sidemen bring us back to patent leather, pivot-on-the-heel kind of 80s funk. There is a reference to Morris Day on their website bio and that is not wrong. The Sidemen are able to take influences from the age of glitter and wooden heels, and create something new; and maybe someone is putting their finger on a problem we have today:

“Does anyone know what I’ve done with myself?
We don’t want to hear about it...”
— The Sidemen

It's a nice thing, connecting with an audience on weirdness; in this world of digital media, it is everything. The Sidemen are able to keep in contact with their considerable fan base through the magic of internets; I am still trying to figure that out; I think there are tubes involved.

Hooked from the start
No one is more familiar with Savannah's dark side than homicide detective and native resident Elise Sandburg. She's been haunted for years by her own mysterious past: she was abandoned as a baby in one of the city's ancient cemeteries, and it's rumored that she is the illegitimate daughter of an infamous Savannah root doctor. The local Gullah culture of voodoo and magic is one that few outsiders can understand, least of all Elise's new ...

<strong>Hooked</strong>

From the first chapter I was hooked. It's a great mix of mystery and thriller with it touching on the occult slightly. Anne is a new author for me and certainly one I can't wait to read more of.
The relationship dynamics are so well written from the angst of a strained mother daughter to the new troubled work relationships.
Definitely one of recommend.
