April 5 2008: Reviews In Ten Words: March 2008
Filed under Reviews
Non-Fiction
- Charlotte Chandler – Ingrid Bergman, A Personal Biography: Complete with plentiful anecdotes, yet still lacks details and facts.
- Sam Jordison – Bad Dates (True Tales from Single Life): Funny collection of “bad date” stories, see all at http://whendatesgobad.co.uk
- Michelle Morgan – Marilyn Monroe: Private and Undisclosed: Text somewhat bland, but the plentiful photos are really insightful.
Fiction
- Jenny Crusie – Bet Me: Whirlwind romance between two complete opposites is very much chick-lit-esque.
- Mary Janice Davidson – Really Unusual Bad Boys: One-dimensional men with big penises – what a chicklit heroine needs.
- Janet Evanovich – Plum Lucky: Funny story in between the numbers, complete with faux leprechauns.
- Nancy Fairbanks – Truffled Feathers: Fine dining in New York, whilst trailing a vicious murderer.
- Candace Havens – Charmed & Dangerous: Unexplained concepts misleads into thinking it a sequel…it’s not.
- Sophie Lee – Alice In La La Land: All that glitters isn’t gold in acting tale of woe.
- Paul Magrs – Something Borrowed: Supernatural, sprightly grannies take on netherworldly creatures and demons. Sequel.
Movies
- Cadet Kelly (2002): Not enough love shown for the Duffster…she’s endlessly entertaining.
- Catwoman (2004): The absurdity made me LOL, though it’s not a comedy.
- Clueless (1995): Unbelievably entertaining after a decade. A true modern teenage classic.
- Maid In Manhattan (2002): Where’s the supposed strong attraction between the protagonists? Fiennes miscast.

I love Clueless so much. It’s one of my favourite movies. And I think I might go watch it now…

Maid in Manhattan = possibly one of the worst movies ever?
Cadet Kelly = too adorable. I love Duff, I have no idea why people just don’t ant to hug her as I do. :P
