A gripping read

I love it when you pick up a book that you know nothing about, from an author you've never read before and it turns out to be a fantastic and addictive read.

This is marvellous Victorian thriller set from the points of view of two flawed yet highly interesting characters. The central plot of murder, intrigue and abuse is written very well and is a brilliant page turner. I literally couldn't put this book down. It's not perfect and gets a tad rambly at times with some slightly old school language, but for the most part it's such an entertaining read. And the ending was completely unexpected and such a great twist, I really didnt see it coming.

Snooze Fest

I tried to watch this movie twice. The first time, I made it less than five minutes. But since the actors made such a big deal about it and talked about how it was a feminist accomplishment on their press junkets and whatever, I decided to give it another try. I made it maybe an hour or an hour-and-a-half into the film and rather than just finishing it to see how it ended, I decided that I really didn't care about any of the characters, what happened to them, or how the movie ended. If you want to watch a movie about strippers, go old school and watch Showgirls. It's not a great movie but it's at least entertaining.
