Erika (17789 KP) rated American Murder: The Family Next Door (2020) in Movies

Oct 18, 2020

True crime is seemingly the only thing Netflix gets right the majority of the time. It obvious, from the beginning, who did it. This doc was a little different, utilizing posts and various texts to propel the stories.
To be honest, the mom was super annoying. She's definitely one of those people I would block all her posts on Facebook. It makes me incredibly uncomfortable when people obsessively post their kids online, and other personal business. It's icky. The dude seemed like a ticking time bomb, and half of me can't blame him.
It's stories like these that make me never want to get married or have a long-term partner. I did like that at the end, they posted the stats of murders by partners.

David McK (3623 KP) rated Biggles Learns to Fly in Books

Dec 23, 2020

I was going to start this by saying this was the earliest set of the Biggles stories, back in The First World War.

Then I did a bit of research, and discovered that it depends upon how (and what) you are counting as a Biggles story/book - see http://www.biggles.info/

Perhaps, then, it would be better to say that this is the earliest set of any I have read.

Published in 1935, this is (apparently) a collection of 12 separate short stories, all of which are loosely linked together and follows some of Biggles earlier exploits.

I realise I'm not the target audience for these (I'm now too old). I don't care: sometimes it's nice just to re-live your childhood!

Series 1 was definitely better than series 2. I loved Hannah telling her stories through the tapes. I was good how everyone found out about each other's stories and how they impacted each other. It was very specific in the order that the tapes were played. I really felt for Hannah and understood the decisions he makes. The ending was so sad but it was understanding why she killed herself.
In the 2nd series I wanted certain people to get what they deserved and they didn't. It was hard to keep track of what was happening. When people were lying in court I wanted to walk into the court room and tell people the truth.
