Can’t compare to the first film
I just think the sparkle from the first film is missing from this offering but Cher is ABBA-licious
The plot is okay
The performances are brilliant
The songs are good
But the sparkle is missing, I do wonder if Meryl Streep is otherwise known as sparkle (we know her screen time isn’t as great as it was on the first film)
  
The Power was definitely interesting from a sociological point a view, but I definitely felt there was something missing.

A piece missing
I really enjoyed the first film way more than I thought I would. This is similar but for me missing the charm of the original. It has its moments but it is not as funny as the first one. Maybe more for a younger audience this time around.

I’m a massive fan of Cecelia Ahern and I hadn’t even heard of this one until I saw it at a charity book stall at the hospital. So, for 50p, I definitely couldn’t resist.

This is one of Ahern’s more abstract novels, based on the idea that all lost things that people have stopped looking for end up in the same place – a little village called ‘Here’.

Sandy is a private investigator who has always had to find missing things since a girl from school went missing when she was younger. She was always losing things but always made a task out of trying to find every single one, hardly ever giving up. She finds herself in a strange place, surrounded by missing people and objects, and no knowledge of how to get home.

Jack’s brother is missing, and he enlists on Sandy’s help to find him. Only, Sandy never shows up when they arrange to meet.

Sandy is the person to go after the missing people, so who will look for her when she goes missing?

I loved reading this and loved the question it raised over what really happened to Sandy when she went missing. The book is based on such a unique idea and made an interesting read and one of my favourite books of 2017.

Sub-Par Adaptation
Though I quite liked the cast in this movie, it was a sub-par adaptation of the James Patterson novel. Important plot points were missing and the characters weren't fleshed out enough, it felt like half a movie. Probably wouldn't bother if I were you...

A brilliant and brutal, hard hitting thriller as 2 girls go missing and the main suspect is released due to a lack of evidence. Gripping story and with a few twists and turns.
