Movie Rating

Saw wannabe

An average at best thriller, which is a mix of Cube, Saw films where a group of strangers wake up and wondered where they are and what their connection is. This time if they don't figure it out, one of them will be shot every 10 mins.
This films works on some levels but it's not that dramatic, the abductor isn't that menacing or scary and it fails to create the tension and suspense needed for a film like this to work. I have to add it's really low budget and the acting quite poor, Sabrina the teenage witch (Melissa Joan Hart) appears to have grown up quick, but no wonder I've not seen her in much since those days. To cap it all it has an odd ending which didn't fit.

Enjoyable Love Story

This book follows Maddy; a teenage girl who suffers from a rare disease that prevents her from leaving her house. Her uneventful daily like is shaken up when a new boy moves in next door.
Maddy reminds me of a princess trapped in a tower, but the tower is her own body. She understands that Olly isn't going to come save the day. She actually afraid of letting him into her life. The best part of this book is seeing Maddy decide what risks are worth taking. Once she decides to let Olly be a part of her life her view on the world starts to change. Overall this was a great book, and Maddy's love story proves that the best things in life come with a little risk.

MoMoBookDiary (20 KP) rated 13 Little Blue Envelopes (Little Blue Envelope, #1) in Books

Oct 1, 2018

13 Little Blue Envelopes was a delightful read. The author knows how to keep you hooked with short easy-to-read chapters and I found myself reading a chapter every chance I got!

It had me hooked from the first envelope and read the book over a couple of days - only to find there is a follow-on novel out too!

I was luck enough to get this as a free book on Amazon kindle which is a fantastic way of discovering new authors. The book is aimed at teenage/young adult but I would recommend it for any age group.

MoMo’s Book Diary loved this delightful novel and recommends 13 Little Blue Envelopes as a 4 star read. (read May 2011)

Kate (355 KP) rated Supernatural - Season 2 in TV

Jan 30, 2019

Have just (well a few weeks ago) found this on Amazon Prime and remember watching the first series many years ago on TV but not being able to watch any more due to it going onto Sky. Currently working my way through all the episodes and yes it is quite outdated these days but still just as full of supernatural beings and the trouble they cause. It can be a bit gory in places but still worth watching. Not sure how they string it out to several series but we will see when I get further on. My son has never watched it but had heard of the Winchester Brothers (the main characters) as they have a huge fan base amongst teenage girls and his friends don't stop talking about them.
