The Kissing Booth (film review)

Film: The Kissing Booth
Year: 2018
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Rom-Com
Starring: Joey King, Joel Courtney, Jacob Elordi
About: A high school student is forced to confront her secret crush at a kissing booth

My Review: 
Seeing a new Netflix rom-com I couldn't resist giving this a watch and I couldn't be more happy that I did.

This film is about a girl called Elle who has had a crush on her best friends brother since she was six. However when they turn into teenagers and they end up kissing at a kissing booth everything changes.

I thought this would only be an average watch when I put this movie on however found myself loving it and couldn't stop smiling throughout it. I thought the teenage situations were rather relate-able and that this film had really good acting from the actors which helped to make this such a good watch. I genuinely can not fault this at all and from finding out that it is based upon a book of the same title have to give it a watch. This film was funny, made me close to tears and really warmed my heart. I wanted so much more of it and can honestly say it is now one of my favourite teenage rom-coms!

I would recommend this movie to those who like rom-com movies and teenage girls as well. Really great film which really surprised me. 

My Rating: 5/5

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4F3Sn-Xzzo My Review: Wanting a style of film I don't usually watch but do enjoy I decided to watch the stalker movie that is My Teacher, My Obsession  which is based on an English teacher who starts at a new school. However, when one of the students gets obsessed with him she will do anything to be with him including secluding him from everyone else. I liked the foreshadowing at the beginning of the movie which matched up to the ending very well and shows how throughout the movie that this was coming up. I also liked how the film showed how the stude

Broken Homes- Ben Aaronovitch (book review) *contains spoilers*

Book: Broken Homes Author: Ben Aaronovitch Genre: Crime, Fantasy, Mystery Published By: Gollancz Published Year: 2013 My Review: With my work colleague letting me borrow the next book in the Peter Grant series, I was hoping that this book would be as good as the previous book which had me wondering what was going to happen next and if they would discover where the dark wizard was hiding. Not only this, but with the characters moving to a building they felt had a magical connection, I was wondering how this would effect not only the people performing good magic but the ones who would want it for darkness. Broken Homes did surprise me with the ending however it did rather bore me throughout which did disappoint me. I liked that Broken Homes showed that it wasn't only people who could be magical but that it could also be buildings which demonstrated how magic was everywhere and could build in certain parts of the city. With this being something that I hadn't thought of

As a result I thought I would re-watch Snowpiercer and give it a review which is fun for me as it is a film in which I really enjoy and feel is very underrated. I love how this film begins by showing you how the passengers who are on the train that goes around the world are the only survivors of the human race. By doing this it sh
