3 Brand new series.. coming soon.

Hey guys!

I’m feeling so guilty. I promised to be uploading again regularly, but evidently I have neglected both my blogs for some time. I’ve recently had a eureka moment, and decided I’m going to force myself to make sure I put 100% time and efforts back into my blogs.

This means I have got 3 new series coming which include –

  • What about Law series – As I am I law student I thought I’d create a series about my second passion along side reading books (going into the right profession). This series will include, crazy laws in the UK and neighbouring countries, new laws, random law facts, and some opinionated law pieces. I’ll hopefully be talking about news relation and current affairs also.
  • Murder/Mystery series – This will include the most notorious killers, and pieces on unsolved murders and crimes, which could be really interesting for me as well as you, going along and finding out theories, and case facts.
  • How and Why series – As I’m a serious Procrastinator I often bombard my brain with hypothetical scenarios and how and why questions, which I can go into a lot of depth with. Some will be controversial topics, whilst others will be just general why and how life questions.

I am hopefully looking to start these next week.

Happy reading 🙂

University update!

Yikes! what a few Month it has been! I got my A-level results, which were 10X better than I anticipated and I got into university!!!! since I found out I’ve been shopping, shopping and shopping.

I’m moving out which means I have to buy everything from scratch, so its given me little time to plan and write blogs, or get my Room94 blog started fully. from the 13th of September regular updates to Inspiredbyabook will be made, from movie, book and general reviews to discussion topics.

updates to Room94 will be less regular, as I am re-launching due to been unable to commit 100% to it.

I’d appreciate if my fellow followers, could go follow room94site, in preparation for re-launch, as that will have beauty, fashion and food content.

I look forward to 100% starting back up both blogs, including the Instagram page from the 12th.

happy reading.

 

 

Sisters: Review

Synopsis: Sisters (2015)
Two sisters decide to throw one last house party before their parents sell their family home. And realise they are in deeper than they intended, putting their futures on the line and family relationships.

Running time: 118 minutes

Director: Jason Moore

Staring: Amy Poehler,John leguizamo, Maya Rudlolph and Tina Fey.

Amy poehler is my all time favourite, and in this movie both her and Tina Fey worked brilliantly! The comedy was fast paced, keeping an engaged audience.

The sisters had both hit a rocky termoil in their lives, and wanted one last pick me up. When their parents announced they were selling the family home, they took the opportunity and created a party, on line with project X.

The house in the process is trashed, and when the parents come back the sisters have to clean up and the out come is great!

I rate this film 8/10 and definitely recommend it.

Krampus movie: Review

image

Synopsis: Krampus (2015)
When his dysfunctional family clashes over the holidays, young Max (Emjay Anthony) is disillusioned and turns his back on Christmas. Little does he know, this lack of festive spirit has unleashed the wrath of Krampus: a demonic force of ancient evil intent on punishing non-believers. All hell breaks loose as beloved holiday icons take on a monstrous life of their own, laying siege to the fractured family’s home and forcing them to fight for each other if they hope to survive.

This film was a strange one. To start with I couldn’t make my mind up if I liked it, but after sleeping on it I thought it put a great twist on the typical christmas film. 

Family drama and something to bring them together. I’d rate the film a 5 out of 10 starts. Unfortunately I don’t think you can see it at the cinema now, last night was the last screening.

Merry Christmas x

Asking for it: Review

image

Amazon
Goodreads

Asking for it; is a very important book that covers a serious issue, rape.
LOUISE O’NEILL bravely tackeles how traumatic a rape can be, and how the power of social media can ruin someones life.

Throughout the book it has the power to change your emoties continuously; from angry, to sad and even confusion. The topic of rape is serious and a book created showing the reality of what it’s like, has a huge impact on the reader.

The main character emma, was a popular girl with everything a teenager wishes for. She’s out going and having the time of her life; until she goes to a party and a boy rapes her, filming the horrible act and posting it on social media.
Gradually you see emmas story grow into something upsetting and difficult to come to terms with, as people accuse her of lying, shes lost all her confidence and he family is falling appart.

Overall the story is an eye opener, and is a definite read but not for the faint hearted. Louise leaves the story open, as she quotes “for rape victims it’s never really over”, so it’s open to interpretation as to how emmas story ends.

I rate 5 Stars.

BREAKING NEWS!!

Physical copies of books are on the rise. The sales have rissn by 10%!

Waterstones are stopping selling e-readers, to just focus on selling paper and hardbacks.

Apparently it’s due to the rise of young readers, IT MAKES ME SOOO HAPPY!!!!!
So maybe reading will loose it stigma of being “weird” or just for “bofins”

Gone girl: Review

Author: Gillian Flynn
Goodreads link
Amazon link

I read this book a few months ago, and never got round to reviewing it! I don’t know why as I LOVED it.

How Gillian wrote Amy to be such a master mind was brilliant, the whole book just proves what women can do when they think and plan.

*Spoiler*
The clues Amy left Ben inside the hiden places was such a great trick, especially to start with as he thought she was portraying her love to him! As the story progressed we learnt that they were actually little digs at Ben, for his affair and attitude.

The first half of the book was a drag, all until part 2 I was thinking is this going anywhere. Luckily as I was about to put the book down, the pace picked up!
Quickly it escalated into something magical.

It definitely left me thinking about a womans ability to plan, plot and attack! If we all put our minds to it; were capable of anything!

I rate this book 4 stars; and if you haven’t already, Go read it!

Happy reading 🙂

Give a little…

Do people still use librarys

Ever since my last blog questioning if people still use librarys, personally I’ve been trying to make the most of my local Library.

I sorted through some books people have sent me, arks, presents and others and decided to give the library some. For me this was pretty difficult, because I love holding onto my books, but I needed the space. Anyway the woman at the library looked at me like she’d never been given books before. It just warmed my heart!

I can’t encourage any of you enough, to sort through old books, DVDs and CDs. Take them to your library and give to someone else!

Happy giving 🙂

GREY : Review

Author: E. L. Jame
Genre: Erotic romance
Amazon link
Goodreads link

First things first… Grey actually has feelings, Which are shown continuously throughout the book. It was obviously very similar to Fifty Shades of Grey, seen as it’s the same book from a different point of view!

The 4th installment answered alot of questions, everyone was dying know! Such as Christian really works! This installment offers readers to get truly invested into the characters lives and understand them more.

Lucky E.L.James’ writing has developed over the past few years, as her development is clear throughout the book. Her writing style has certainly improved.

I’d rate this book 4 stars, as it’s well written and offers greater insight into Christians life, which all us nosey people love! I definitely recommend Grey!

Happy reading 🙂

GIRL ON THE TRAIN REVIEW.

Author: Paula Hawkins
Genre: Thriller

I originally reviewed this book for reviewleaf.

Amazon link
Goodreads link

I listened to this book via audio, I’m not sure if that ruined the experience, but I really didn’t enjoy it.

Unfortunately I guessed the killer a quater of the way through, so I was just waiting to the reveal. The premise of the book was brilliant, how it was constructed, and how the main character got involved with the others. Either way it was very predictable.

I rate the book 3 stars. I would recommed to those new to the thriller genre.

Happy reading 🙂

P.s Sorry I’ve been away so long 🙂
