Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated We Should All be Feminists in Books

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie does a great job in explaining the fundamental point of feminism. While it is already known to those versed in such sociological aspects, it is a good start in learning about what it actually is.
I was more interested in her viewpoint of intersectional feminism which brings together the effects of race, class and gender on a person and their position in society. I hope that there will be more literature like this in the future.

Need For Speed Payback doesn’t really set the genre alight, but it’s the closest we’re likely to get to a new Burnout game. It’s fun to play; mixing various racing events with the explosive set pieces of its proper story missions

Tony Parsons deals with another tough topic
This is wonderful story telling. London, its smells, noises and people emerge, gloriously, from the page.
The story itself surrounds the murky, brutal world of human trafficking, an enterprise that is ever expanding. Parsons humanises the victims, ranging from trafficked sex slaves to servitude.
They are a bit far fetched however - as is all crime fiction, nevertheless, I've enjoyed all of these as they race along and keep you engaged.

There's no justice, just us...
My reaction to this book was FINALLY someone is discussing the intersectionality between feminism, classism, and the British identity with race and racism. Absolutely current and relevant to society especially in the aftermath of the Brexit referendum. I read this in one go, nodding and shouting in agreement throughout. Reni Eddo-Lodge writes coherently and extremely succinctly to make the language accessible, and the anecdotes slightly terrifying. An absolute must-read and listen.

Great soundtrack
Oozing coolness
A very good film with several long car chase scenes. The editing is great, to combine the soundtrack with action on screen at the same time in sync. The tunes are good and the film has a cool vibe to it. Along with good talented cast this couldn't go wrong. It starts lighthearted but does get a bit violent towards the end. Race down to the cinema to catch it.

Accurate city locations
Key racing game
This is the the game that kinda prequeled Project Gotham Racing on the Xbox. With fewer cars, tracks and cities than the first PGR game. It had incredible detailed city tracks based on Tokyo, San Francisco and London. Allowing you to race around Westminster, do doughnuts in Leicester Square. There were time attacks, various challenges and the new Kudos system. For the time this was the most detailed racing game ever!

Terrible Vampire Film
I really thought I would like this. It has a good idea for a story with a vampire race living along side humans in an alternate world. That was one of the let downs as the alternate world is like a mish mash of Victorian times mixed with 60's technology, steam powered cars? Why this setting? Could have been a lot better along the line of Underworld, Equilibrium.....but falls way short.
