This is so cute! There’s not much I can say in a review for this since it is basically a novelty picture book, but I loved it.
There’s a cute little illustration of a hug on every page and I just find it really heartwarming. It’s one of my go-to feel-good books that will always cheer me up as well – I just have to flick to a random page for a smile.
I love that there’s little quotes mixed in as well. It’s just such a loving little book and would make a great present to anyone

This is everything I want in a cute romance. Hallmark worthy. But please make this into a movie so I can giggle along with it!
The plot is simple and you know exactly what will happen and it makes it just that much easier to sit back and enjoy the story. You find yourself laughing along with the antics and if you are a horror movie fan trying to place the quotes before finding out what they are. I am not a fan but it was fun anyway.
Perfect nighttime reading when you just want to relax with a Happily Ever After.

If you haven't seen it yet, shame on you!
Jim Carrey offers up his legendary goofy antics in this portrayal of the dark horse comics character, Stanley Ipkiss aka The Mask.
Filled with unforgettable scenes and quotes that are still used by everyday people, The Mask was a hit with audiences of all ages with the characters over the top green faced expressions and ridiculous costumes that followed.
Although not as dark as it's comic book material, the movie is an old gem that's still tickling those funny bones.

Deadly Sins
What to say about a movie that turns you inside out and makes you look at yourself in a different light. The movie focuses around a serial killer (Kevin Spacy) who is all about the seven deadly sins. We see two detectives (Freeman and Pitt) trying to solve them only to realize that the killer is targeting people who have committed of the the seven sins. The ending of this movie is morbid and frightening even though we can figure out "What's in the Box" which in the manner it is said made it into AFI's top 100 quotes ever and for good reason.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Life in the Sloth Lane: Slow Down and Smell the Hibiscus in Books
Jul 12, 2018
I received this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This book was just what I was needing. I have been reading many dark and depressing novels so when I had a chance to read this book, I knew it was fate. Life in the Sloth Lane is a book that has adorable sloths and some good inspirational quotes. It was almost like I wasmeditating when I was reading. It calmed me down, made me smile and I even learned new facts about sloths.
If you enjoy sloths, need some time just to breathe, and like learning something new, this is the book for you. Seriously, it is adorable.

It isn’t Christmas without Elf
The majority of classic Christmas films tend to be fairly old school, but Elf is by far the best more modern Christmas film - despite now being 15 years old.
It’a absolutely hilarious, and so lovely and heart warming too. The plot is fun and entertaining, and there are some great performances from Will Ferrell and James Caan, there are some really brilliant quotes and lines in this. It’s showing it’s age a little bit now and some of the effects are a bit dodgy, but it’s still a classic festive film. It really isn’t Christmas until you watch Elf.

Hilarious take on a serious subject
A comedy about terrorism isn’t something you’d think would ever be made, let alone be any good, but Four Lions takes this serious subject on brilliantly. I’m sure there are many people out there that will take offence, but when the film centres a group of bumbling totally inept terrorists, for me it was very difficult to not find it humorous when the characters are just so stupid. It’s absolutely hilarious, with some great quotes and one liners dotted throughout and also a lot of relevant cultural and locational based references. The references about Alton Towers cracked me up, and the quotes about rubber dinghy rapids has stayed with me ever since I first watched this years ago. I would be intrigued to know how this film is received by those who aren’t British, as I’m not sure a lot of these references would have quite the impact.
This isn’t to say the film isn’t serious at all, because it is. Focusing on the family of Omar brings a bleaker outlook and the ending actually makes you feel sorry for most of them, after everything. Riz Ahmed shines in this, he’s absolutely brilliant and it’s easy to see why he’s now moved over into Hollywood. The rest of the cast are good, Kayvan Novak especially, but it's Riz that stands out.
A fantastically funny British film that’s sure to have you laughing out loud.
