Quick but obvious read
DS Ian Peterson is investigating a brutal stabbing in a park that opens a chain of events resulting in further killings. The suspect is obvious and clearly isn't worried about being found out.
Ian is a good character with the usual home life issues of a detective, although probably not as tragic as some. There were parts where I felt the focus was a little too strong on his home life particularly when written from his wife's perspective.
I like the dynamic of colleagues and felt it was believable. The writing was good. The story was a little basic and obvious.

Quick read. Interesting look into the life of an EMS/Paramedic. Not what I expected but it was good nonetheless. Made me see why I find jobs such as these so fascinating to read about.

I read this book with my 7th graders as part of their unit on Identity in the Middle Ages. Overall it was interesting and did a fairly good job of interspersing fact with fiction. The pictures also really helped add to the story. I would have liked to see a bit more purpose in the overall plot, but for the most part this is a good book for middle schoolers wanting to know what life might've been like for them in the 13th century.

My first thoughts while watching this: baby James McAvoy was so cute, and is this real life? These extreme African leaders are sort of the butt of jokes all of the time, but you think, surely this couldn't be real life.
This film is told from the perspective of McAvoy's character. Whittaker's portrayal of Idi Amin was interesting. Though this movie is pretty good, you only really need to watch it once.
