A Graveyard Visible- Steve Conoboy (book review)

Book: A Graveyard Visible
Author: Steve Conoboy
Genre: Young Adult, Horror, Fantasy
Published By: Lodestone Books
Published Year: 2018

 My Review:
I got a copy of this book from NetGalley in return for an honest review. Being brought in by the cover I couldn't wait to read this.

This book is about a boy called Caleb who when he sees men up at the graveyard near his house starts to become interested in what is happening up there and ends up mixed up in a paranormal horror story he doesn't know how to stop.

This book was a great read and I found myself getting chills at points and needing to put it down so I could get back to my normality which I loved about this book. I also thought that this book had enough horror in it which I don't find in many books I have read of this style.

I do however feel that there was issues with this book such as not saying who was speaking in chapters which did leave me confused at points about who the story was following. Not only this but the ending does not make this book feel finished and like it has just been stopped, this did frustrate me as I wanted to know how the story ends. As it doesn't feel like it has been done deliberately either it did put my rating of this book down.

 My Rating: 3/5

Film: She's The Man Year: 2006 Genre: Comedy, Romance, Sport Directed By: Andy Fickman Starring: Amanda Bynes, Laura Ramsey, Channing Tatum About:  When her brother decides to ditch for a couple weeks, Viola heads over to his elite boarding school, disguised as him, and proceeds to fall for his school's star soccer player, and soon learns she's not the only one with romantic troubles Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf67WlthWXk My Review: Having spent a lot of my teenage years watching She's The Man I thought I would give it a watch as I hadn't seen it in a while and loved this film all over again. I love how this film although being about football and being something I am not interested in brings it to an enjoyable place for me as well as having the comedy and romance side to keep me fully entertained. Having the film show how the girls team was cut from Viola's school and showing how she just wanted to play and would have played on the b

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjGkB_oWTe0 My Review: Having been interested in this movie for a while and it really catching my eye lately especially with it being on Netflix I couldn't resist but to give this a watch. This is something in which I had better expectations for than it gave me and seemed a rather forgettable movie even though it wasn't a bad watch. I liked that The Girl With All The Gifts started with showing how the children were taught and kept in separate rooms however made the audience wonder why they were kept that way when they seemed like normal children. Later discovering that they were zombies and that there was a zombie break all over the w

A Letter For The King- Tonke Dragt (book review) *contains spoilers*

Book: The Letter For The King Author: Tonke Dragt Genre: fiction, adventure Published By: Pushkin Children's Books Published Year: 1962 My Review: I managed to get this book from NetGalley for an honest review and I am so glad that I did choose this book to read. This book is put into a prologue and eight different sections which indicate where in the story the characters are as well as chapter titles to make the reader have some idea what the chapter they are reading about. Prologue: In this part of the book the reader is made to understand the past of Dagonaut also how the knights are appointed to the king and why there are five boys in a chapel just outside of the town who is doing a vigil. This is a great way to let the reader understand how the following boys are where they are and makes the reader wonder which of these boys are going to be going on an adventure and how if they are so close to the king this would be a long book. Part 1: A Mysterious Mission Aft
