Review of Prequel of one night that changes everything
5/5 stars
The last book i read from Lauren was my guilty pleasure devon delancy.I enjoyed the prequel it 's hearwarming story about how Cooper and Eliza met.Boy meets girl story ,cooper is a ladies man and Eliza is a teen that deals with real issues dating, boys, mean girls and trying to fit in how they seem like an unlikely couple because they have different social standings. It's cute how Cooper accepted her for who she is and the story why she breaks up with him. Fans of lauren or one night that changes everyting will enjoy it. It's realistic fiction and it's a convincing prequel because after you finish you wonder what will happen next for Eliza and Cooper . I have yet to read the book but after it i am anticipating to find out what would happen to Eliza. It would give you background of the events before the book and it has twist and turns that would make you buy a copy to find out how the story ends.
prequel novella to ONE NIGHT THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING, and you can download it for free http://laurenbarnholdt.com/beforethatnight/
Ramona and Beezus Movie review
A light comedy that is heartwarming and a fun story about growing up for the entire family.
4/5
While Ramona who is a michevious and imaginative child she stands out of the crowdwho has a wild imagination wheither she's at home or on the play ground. She seemed to be a pest to her sister Beezus"beatrice" whom is a teenager who is dealing with her crush on her long time best friend Henry Higgins at an age where boys have become confusing and strange. Ramona have schemes that end in disasters my favourite scene was when she was auditioning for a commercial and fell into a sandwich. She face growing up and change she thinks people don't care about her because of her schemes and relies on aunt Bea. A movie that the whole family can relate to . It was fun but lacked some things for the wow factor.

The cellar review
http://www.ajwhitten.com/Excerpts.html this is an juicy excerpt an early present for holiday check it out
Ok i feel a bit lucky thanks to mifflin publishing for time and patience no matter what i appreciate it.
My verdicts and thoughts
This book the cellar was a heartbreaking ,hauntingly engaging read with Ya zombies that are the real deal unique twist on an age old paranormal know as the living dead meets shakespeare romeo and juliet . It a engaging read for those who like forbidden romance and a side of horror.
Characters
Meridith i loved her spunk which makes her a strong willed heroine i liked her determination to protect her sister after her father died.
How she had the will to resist Adrien and put life in danger to protect those she love she make a great role model.
Sam - heather's ex boyfriend a good guy done right i like the fact he was supportive of Meridith no matter what.
The polar opposites were the sisters
Heather i admire her strength, non judgemental intergrity she a character you can't help but have sympathy for and support.
As for Adrien he was an enthralling lad lol i had a love hate relationship when i was reading ,but you cant help but feel that he just as human as us.i loved the diverse point of views it has perpective.
It shows the side of zombies most ya novels didn't cover the emotional side how true they might be dead but they were human once share our emotions like love /hate and the alluring side as well without making them cliche .I loved the fact it showed multitudes of point of views as well as the zombies can behave as humans and have supernatural powers. I like how these zombies were unpredictable not like slow and brain damaged they can be suave and dangerous shows a side of zombies i cant help but be interested in. I 'll keep this spoiler free there you go i recommend you try it
Review Tangled movie imax 3D
Ever since i was a little kid i watch disney films the fairytales were amusing the usual beauty and the beast and snow white were light contempory classics with equal parts humour, emotion and knowing disney sparkling magic. This one is different from the others it's in eye catching , geunine effects like most 3D it totally makes up for airbender in 3D live action films are iffy for me know, it has a upbeat mood and supsenceful at the same time. Unlike most 3D it was capturing and not bad quality there are few 3D movies done right such as avatar. Now let's get to it cut to the chase here's the synopsis
Walt Disney Pictures presents "Tangled," one of the most hilarious, hair-raising tales ever told. When the kingdom's most wanted-and most charming-bandit Flynn Rider (voice of Zachary Levi) hides out ... in a mysterious tower, he's taken hostage by Rapunzel (voice of Mandy Moore), a beautiful and feisty tower-bound teen with 70 feet of magical, golden hair. Flynn's curious captor, who's looking for her ticket out of the tower where she's been locked away for years, strikes a deal with the handsome thief and the unlikely duo sets off on an action-packed escapade, complete with a super-cop horse, an over-protective chameleon and a gruff gang of pub thugs. In theaters this holiday season in Disney Digital 3D
It has heart , straight on humour and hair raising fun . The characters development was most excellant Rapunzel reminds me of when i was a kid i was just as curious. It was a classic spin on the fairy tale. The horse is like a dog but intelligent i love how he seems rude at the beginning lol give him apples . The lizard was a fun colourful creature i like how the animals and Flynn get along after fighting. I like how it's a action packed version of rapunzel not disney's best but one of the memorable tales for your collection.

Easy A script review
I loved this movie i saw it 3 times it's called easy a it's a classic reminicent of scarlet letter .
In my world easy a+
4.5/5 a unique witty screen gems made a gem of a teen movie
The script was delightful and as fun / flirty as the movie was the idea was creative.It's catchy and addicting and emma stone acted exceptional in zombieland. Emma stone was funny in Easy A her career is getting far and The main character olive Penderghast from as conversation with a friends and this mean girl played by Amanda Bynes Marianne Bryant who's part of the cross your heart club the rumour spreads her flawless reputation gets exaggerated. Stanely tucci did another amazing job in his role as Mr. Penderghast
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xj2D1_hKQ8&feature=related
quote " my brother name sage we would be a spice cabinet."script change as it has swear words but it still capture my heart this is a comedy not a tragic drama . Olive penderghast is charming as she tells her funny tale on how her reputation turned upside down. I have a great experiance Olive's character is likeable we all been through rumours the whole movie was my favourite! Rhiannon parents were funny and embarassing at the same time having camp outside their hometc don't miss the one of classic teen movie of 2010
