Oct 10, 2017 (Updated Oct 10, 2017)
Well produced but still completely missing a lot
It's pretty incredible to create a series about the effects of mass porn without mentioning how it actually affects the women in it and around it. Once again we have a very male take on women as a mass commodity, narrowing them down to keywords instead focusing on how the men who make it and are responsible for the consumerism are affected. I thought Jon Ronson would explore this issue, but he skirts around it as an aside. Not his best by far.

Dalrymple's no holding back factual account
This was the missing piece of the puzzle in terms of attempting to find out the truth behind the Kohi-Noor diamond. Absolutely no frills account on how the diamond left in its path so much wanton death and destruction. William Dalrymple as always - a detailed historian putting forward the facts. Fascinating and both historically and currently important.

I read this book on a recommendation. It has been talked about with much praise from many people I admire. The idea of finding love, losing self, and finding self is very good and this book covers it well. My issues is the style and format of the book. I like things that flow and it is choppy because it is written in a series of letters it seems. The voice is incredible and I will recommend this book but for me there was no flow just a series of photos with some missing.

The author did a good job with the plot. It more about PI than the woman we first meet at the theater. It, her missing husband that has more mysteries. Constance McCauley finds some connections between Alex and his foster parents and also his parents.
The title has a good title for that it fits it perfectly. What making Alex run? What really happened to make him run. Can Constance McCauley and her assistant Tony get the answers to this case? There are some surprises though some of the book.

Fabulous acting (2 more)
Wonderful cinematography
Complexity of human relations
Another beautiful film from the master Almodovar
Pedro Almodovar has such a wonderful eye for understanding the human condition. Unlike his more outlandish colourful films, this is about the tragic relationships of estranged families and the breakdown in communications. Written in the perspective of a mother whose daughter left or went missing 12 years previously, the film shows her writing a letter to her daughter about all the mistakes she made in that relationship including erasing her from her life. Really very moving and poignant.

I enjoyed this book but it wasn’t entirely surprising. The characters are likable and the story keeps you interested, mainly hoping something big will happen when really it doesn’t. I also became much more interested in the other characters and their stories, especially Izzy, one of the main POVs, and stopped caring about the missing Kristin. There were some surprising aspects at the end, but I predicted the big things so by the end it felt like I had already read it and I kept going just to get through.

Before there was Toretto, there was Riddick.
One for the old-dark-house/monsters-from-outer-space lovers :)
A passanger ship crash-lands on a supposedly colonised planet. The inhabitants are all mysteriously missing. Turns out there are other inhabitants on the planet, no one knew about.
Ship's passengers find themselves suddenly dependant on the nasty mass-murderer previously chained up in the hold.
Nothing earth-shatteringly original here, but it's good creepy entertainment delivered well.
And Riddicks eyes are waaaayyy cooler than anything F & F served up 😆
