So, to the brains behind this project – well, it was my idea, and don’t let Frances tell you otherwise. This is my way of combining my love of reading, film and writing into one, hopefully enjoyable, package, whilst keeping Frances happy by allowing her to put her opinions into something good, instead of just forcing them onto people (it’s a joke Frances). So, a bit about me.
I’m a self confessed geek, so if you are using that to offend me, try harder.
I YouTube regularly – http://www.youtube.com/user/mmmelm3 and use Twitter – https://twitter.com/_mmmel_ so take a look…
I like to have control on whats happening and hate unreliable people – guest reviewers, you have been warned…
I read and watch pretty much anything, though pacing is something I have an issue with, but I have been known to stick with slow (and dull) book, just for the intellectual merit.
My favourite book is To Kill A Mockingbird, it takes an incredible writer to capture the mind of a child so perfectly.
My favourite film is either Kick-Ass or 500 Days of Summer, and although some of the films I enjoy can be girly, I cannot stand ‘chick lit’ as a genre – why water down a plot and pretend all women are obsessed with either shoes or money, when there is so much more?
My idol is Charlie Brooker, anything he writes is absolute gold – if I could be as cynical as him, I would die happy 😉
So that is a small introduction (take note Frances) and I hope you stick around for more, but first we need YOUR help. Send us your suggestions for book to movie reviews through the following:
