I don't get what all the fuss is about? I tried so hard to force myself to read this and I got about halfway and I found myself avoiding reading all together just because I couldn't face the boredom of it? I skipped to the end and read the last chapter and was so glad that I didn't torture myself any further by reading the whole thing.
I realise that I seem to be the minority of this opinion, maybe there is a secret chapter to the book that mine didn't contain??? Who knows.

Love Social Deduction? Then Love Secret Hitler!
This is one of the best social deduction (if not THE best) games I've ever played: and I've played a lot of them. I highly recommend getting a group of friends together to play this: you will not regret yelling at each other for an hour about who's Hitler and who's not. So fun!

Interesting text book
This is a heavy but interesting read. I have actually studied it to death for an essay on hysteria. If any ladies have a secret desire that they might have liked to have lived in the Victorian period, this book might change your mind. Women were treated disgracefully. I think had I been around in the late Victorian period I would have been institutionalised and certifiably mad. Overall, good read for it's purpose but not for relaxation.

TV Show Rating
A celebrity singing competition that features top-secret celebrities facing off against one another while shrouded from head to toe in elaborate costumes, complete with a full facemask to conceal identity. With each performance, the host, panelists, audience, viewers and even the other contestants are left guessing who is singing behind the mask. One singer is eliminated by the audience and judges each week and reveals his or her true identity to the stunned panelists and audience. The American version of the Korean game show "King of the Masked Singer".

Get over here!
This is one of my all time favourite games and actually had a lasting impact on the gaming world as we know it, thanks to fatalities and the introduction of the age ratings.

As a kid what's not to love about this very unique fighting game, controlling what looks like real people, finding the elusive special moves and finally inputting the secret code to humiliate your opponent with a devastating fatality.
