"The only novel really to do anything true with the waves of revolt in Italy in the mid and late 1970s (until I wrote mine, heh). The voice here is transfixing. The end is so incredibly moving. You will need to adapt to Balestrini’s style of forgoing punctuation, but once you do, you’ll be riding a bike with no hands on the bars and you won’t even notice that you, too, are doing something new."

"A beauty supply store owner of a certain age loses her husband, and thinks that’s the end – but her friends rally around her, and various members of her complicated family (her sister, her daughter, the stepson who’s come into her life as an adult) still need her love and competence. A funny, moving story with some smart things to say about aging, mental illness, and how a mother’s work is never done."

This one made me a little sad. Shuusei killed both me and Aoi emotionally in this one. Things seemed to just be about to reach a high point and then he dashed it all. I would like to know what happened in his past to make him so against any romantic involvement with anyone and will be moving onto Volume 7 in a minute too hopefully find out.

Off to start book 7.

Loved this show when it uses to be shown sky one hard to believe it's 20 years old now. Such a good moving angel away from Buffy the vampire slayer and into his own show bringing Cordelia along for the ride shame it only lasted five seasons. Plus next week going to a angel reunion convention in the UK reuniting the cast after 20 years except angel not coming shame

The predator
Watched last night on Disney plus the best of the sequels for me moving predator from the jungle to the urban jungle of L.a it works by having rival gangs at war giving the predator a reason to go on a hunt. Then you’ve got Danny glover as the action hero of the movie. .but compared to the first movie that will still be the best and this comes close

A very hard hitting and moving story
Contains spoilers, click to show
A very hard hitting and moving story about rival gangs and the effect it has on the lives of the people in and around the gangs. The story follows two of the younger greasers after one of them accidentally kills a rival gang member in self defence. They leave town and believe they will have to remain on the run forever.

With a cast to die for, The Outsiders is an incredible, hard hitting film. Portrayed in a believable and moving way, the cast includes Matt Dillon, Emilio Estevez, Diane Lane, Patrick Swayze, Tom Cruise, C. Thomas Howell and Rob Lowe. But Ralph Macchio stands out in this film as Johnny Cade.

The direction of Francis Ford Coppola along with stunning performances from the cast bring this film to life. You feel for the characters as they take you on an emotional roller-coaster. You laugh along with them and share in the anguish and feel the pain they all go through just to survive. It is hard not to watch the film now without comparing other films the cast have made since this film. But for many of the cast, it is up there with the finest performances of their career.

The film is an adaption of a classic novel by S.E. Hinton who was just 16 when the novel was first published in 1967. It was also her first novel. The book has become part of school English curriculum
