Teen Wolf

 Hi there. So I finally got around to watching the last two episodes of Teen Wolf season two and it was amazing! I've loved Teen Wolf from when it first came out last year but I just never got around to watching the final two episodes but I'm so glad that I did.
 For those who don't know, Teen Wolf is about a teenage boy, Scott, who gets turned into a werewolf and there's a new girl in school that he falls in love with which sounds really boring but it's actually so good. In the first season we don't know who bit Scott, turning him into a werewolf and he joins forces with another werewolf, Derek, to find out who turned him because the Alpha who did is very bad. I much preferred the second season as it's much more thrilling. Loads of things happen and it's find of hard to explain and I really don't want to ruin it for anyone who hasn't seen it but I will just say there is much more action and surprises in the second season.
 As for characters, they're all brilliant and they're all extremely good looking. From watching both seasons I will talk about who I like and don't like but you obviously need to watch them to know who I'm talking about. Also, some of the characters I'll talk about aren't in the first season, so if you're watching it and are thinking ''who is she on about?'' you'll have to watch both seasons.
 I'm going to start off by saying my favourite werewolf isn't Scott or Derek, it's Isaac who is only introduced in the second season, I think. I don't know what it is about him that I like, he just seems really innocent and his life before werewolf-hood just makes you want to hug him. It seems like he just wants to do the right thing and he's very handsome as well. I also love Stiles, but he's not a werewolf. He's just the perfect best friend. He'll do anything to help Scott and he's so funny. He comes out with the greatest things, funny and sweet.
 The next thing may shock some people who've watched it but after the second season, I hate Allison so much. I do admit, I did love her in the first season and in most of the second but just the end of season two made me hate her! I'm not going to say why because I don't want to ruin it but ahhhhhhhhh!!!! So much hate.  Crystal Reed who plays Allison is absolutally stunning. She's so pretty and her makeup is always perfect in this, same as her hair and she dresses so nice and I love her face and stuff but I hate her character.
 Anyway, I think Teen Wolf is such a great TV program and everyone should watch it, whether you watch it for the thrill, the amazing clothes, the cute teen love stuff or just the beautiful actors. It's a show I highly recommend to everyone and I hope you enjoy it if you do start watching it. Also, I know I didn't really talk about the relationships and young love and all that stuff but that's not really what I watch it for but if you're into dramatic teenage relationships then this is the show for you. Thanks for reading :)

Angela's Ashes

 Hi there. The last post I wrote was a movie review and in this post I'm going to do something a bit different. I don't think I've ever seen a book review on a blog and I just finished reading Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt and I really enjoyed it and thought I'd review it, as you do.
 I'm not a huge reader as I find it really hard to find books that I really like but in my school we get a book list in Transition Year. I think the book list is a great idea, we are given a few pages of books and authors and we have to read at least two fiction and one non-fiction books from the list and then we have to review them. The teachers in my school pick the books and they do pick a good range. I quite like books that have a historical background but aren't exactly history books, if that makes sense. Angela's Ashes is about Frank McCourt's childhood and how he grew up in terrible poverty in Co. Limerick.
 The book starts by saying how McCourt's family first lived in America and then moved to Ireland to try to get away from the poverty they were living in to only find themselves in worse conditions. The beginning of the book is very sad but once you get past that, the book is very interesting. It really shows you how people lived in these desperate times and how they were lucky if they got a slice of bread for dinner. The book describes how McCourt grew up, it starts from before he was born to when he's 20. When he's describing his childhood he really shows how a child's mind works and develops which is also very interesting.
 Overall, I think the book is great and I recommend it, mainly to teenagers as it really describes stuff that we don't learn in history class. It's so interesting and it keeps you wanting to read on. If you're in Transition Year and you don't know what books to choose from the book list you should defiantly check this book out. Thanks for reading :)

Skyfall

 Hi there. Today I finally went to see the new James Bond movie and oh my, it was incredible! It was just perfect, everything was done so well. Don't worry, I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it. I've never done a movie review before and I'll hopefully do more as I have no social life so I spend a lot of time watching movies. I'm going to split the review into three sections, cast, story and clothes/hair/makeup.
 The cast did a marvelous job and they all played their parts so well. I've only seen Daniel Craig and Pierce Brosnan play James Bond so I don't think I can call myself a Bond fan but I am a Daniel Craig fan and I think he does an amazing job at playing James Bond. Craig really gives the Bond character a bit of a dark side which really shows through in this movie. I think Craig really shows that Bond is only human like all of us and that it's okay if we all get hurt sometimes, both physically and mentally. I think Javier Bardem played the villain (Silva) excellently. I much prefer when the villain is a bit mental, it just makes the character much more interesting and it makes everything more exciting, Bardem did a brilliant job. Judy Dench obviously does an amazing job at playing M or she wouldn't have been playing her for the past 17 years. Naomie Harris (Eve) and Bérénice Marlohe (Sévérine) are two stunning girls in the movie. They both play very different characters but play them both so beautifully. Ben Whishaw plays the extremely cute Q. He brings so much youth to the movie but he also brings so much intelligence as he is the brain in the movie. I think the cast was picked so brilliantly and everyone did such an amazing job.
 The story to this Bond movie is so dramatic and exciting. I think this movie shows us more of James Bond as a person and it focuses a lot on his character instead of his amazing ass-kicking skills. Don't worry, there is still has a hell of a lot of action but it has a perfect balance between the drama and the action. It really does keep you excited all the way through the movie. I was not expecting it to end the way it did, at all. It was a nice ending just very unpredictable.
 When you think of James Bond you probably think of handsome men in amazing suits but there are also beautiful women with gorgeous dresses and amazing makeup. Bérénice Marlohe is who I'm going to talk about makeup, clothes and hair wise. My favourite one of her outfit was the backless, black dress she wore. It had a beautiful design and she pulled it off so well. I also loved her makeup in this scene. She had quite a dramatic smokey eye with a deep lip which I adored. Marlohe has the most amazing hair. When we first see her she has her hair down and it's long and wavy. Then, when she is wearing the backless dress she has her hair pinned up into a faux bob which she wore incredibly well and it showed off the design on the back of the dress beautifully. I can't talk about the clothes in Skyfall and not mention James Bond's amazing suits. Who doesn't love a man in a suit, especially when it's Daniel Craig.
 Overall, I think Skyfall is an amazing movie and it's my favourite of the Daniel Craig Bond movies. If you're planning on going to the cinema this is definitely a movie everyone should see. Thanks for reading :)
