The Lost Symbol
This is the second time I have read this novel. I like the Dan Brown novels, I have watched all the movie adaptations too. Gotta love a bit of Tom Hanks! This one I feel is more mature that the first two, it seems to give more dimension to the Masons, less of nasty view […]
Dark Bites
This is a review of the compendium Dark Bites by Sherrilyn Kenyon. It contains 12 short stories set in the world of the Dark-Hunters. It shows us some side stories behind those in main novels, and shows us the stories of secondary characters that we don’t see in the mainstream books. It is quite a […]
Sunshine
Starring Cillian Murphy, Michelle Yeoh, Chris Evans (yes Cap from the Avengers) with Mark Strong as the villain.

The Outsider
The Outside is a Netflix Original starring Jared Leto. This film was intense! Lots of explicit violence, blood, guns, some swords (don’t know the correct term, sorry!) I actually missed the first part of the movie but I was told that Nick (Leto) assists a man when in prison and as a result the Yakuza […]
A Cinderella Story
Yesterday whilst doing some work I wanted to watch something, however my internet has been a bit iffy when streaming anything at the moment. Even iPlayer. Therefore I decided to watch a movie I have on my external hard drive. A Cinderella Story stars Hilary Duff and Chad Michael Murray, it was released in 2004. […]
Masterchef
So whilst I work on the site and do other things I like to watch TV, at the moment I have been watching Masterchef Series 14! A bit behind at the moment as I am only on episode 7 but I have noticed that there is a lot of people who are being influenced by […]
Tanequil
So I am on a role at the moment. Actually I was going to my other job and that involves 2 hours on various public transport at either end of my day, so I read a lot! It actually only took me two days to read this which is surprising. Usually I take a lot […]
Styxx
So today, finally I finished Styxx. This 800+ page novel was immense, an emotional rollercoaster! At times I had to stop just to keep a hold of myself when on public transport (for example) and prevent tears. It was better than Acheron, which is the partner book that shows the other side of all the […]
Son of No One
So last night after writing my review of Blood Vow I started reading another book to settle down before going to bed. As it happened it wasn’t a long book so I stayed up till 1am to finish it. In my defence it was a good book. Son of No One is a novel in […]
