Excellent story
Brilliant
Loved this so much, I was toe tapping and singing the whole way through. I don't think many people can say they aren't a fan on Queen, they appealed to the masses.
This film is progressive and done well despite being dramatised. It ended in a good place.
The character/people development was very good and it was nice to see an insight into the band behind the legend.
Would highly recommend, although a sad ending it lifted my spirits.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated One Epic Night (Hearts, #5.5) in Books
Jan 8, 2021
This one follows Trevor Cross, in what I assume is not long after the previous book, Thief of Hearts, as he urges his best friend, Reya, to spend a night out doing stuff neither of them has ever done before. They eat in a dark restaurant and go to an illegal rave as well as confessing things to each other that leads to it being one epic night.
I can't wait to read Trev and Rey's complete story in book 6, Hearts on Air!

BookwormLea (3034 KP) rated Stranger Things - Season 1 in TV
Jul 10, 2019
This series is one of my all time favourites! It's such a unique and strange concept that it must works perfectly! I love the whole plot line and how it flows so brilliantly into each episode. Mike is so brilliant and Millie makes an excellent Eleven and I couldn't imagine her being played by anyone else! The rest of that characters/actors are just as good! They all work so well together and have great on screen chemistry! Amazing series! Truly worth the watch!

Wonder is the first book since The Notebook to make me cry to sleep. So sad, emotional and powerful, this is a book everyone needs to be aware of.
August is a young boy that has a health condition, which is why his face looks different than other people's faces. But he is just as normal and ordinary as any other kid.
When his parents decide it is time for him to go to school instead of being home-schooled, he is afraid. Because children are honest, and sometimes unintentionally mean,
<b><i>"When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind."</i></b>
During this book, we see August's point of view, his daily life and making friends with Jack and Summer. We also get to meet some not as nice kids, being mean to August. However, we see the story from other people's point of view, which I found quite interesting. Via'a point of view, for example, was quite insightful.
<b><i>Being August's sister is not easy.</i></b>
Especially when dealing with other high-school drama too. Via is in a situation where her relationship with her parents is suffering because of the attention they pay at August. And even though we can clearly see her endless love for him and her mindfulness of priority, we can also notice her need for attention and love as well.
We also see the point of views of his friends Jack and Summer, as well as Via's ex best-friend. These are all people that August has an impact on, and we can clearly see how they care about him, and how they are battling the society together with him as well. Through August's friendships, we learn so much about the type of person August is, what he is going through on a daily basis, and also, what kind of people his friends are, and what they are prepared to do for him.
<b><i>The inspiring thing about this book is August.</i></b>
For how he helps the people around him to be better versions of themselves. His resilience and positivity, despite the hard life he is currently having and knows he'll have for the rest of his life. August is so precious and innocent, and the moment the other children start to realise this as well is so emotional and magical.
Wonder by R.J. Palacio is just a book that is here to remind us to be kind and to be humble. A book I highly recommend to everyone. I also recommend the movie as well, but only after you have read the book.
