Secrets - this book is full of them!!
The two main characters in this book are feisty, independent, survivor of an abusive upbringing - Millie Cameron and feisty, independent, survivor of an interfering sister - Flo Clancy.
Even though they belong to different era's with Millie growing up in the late 20th century and Flo being around before, during and after WWII, their lives - in retrospect - follow very similar paths.
Millie and Flo are related and at the beginning of the book we believethey are niece (Millie) and great-aunt (Flo) - though the truth turns out to be very different!

Movie:
As an owner of the game of the same name, I was looking forward to the movie. I was hoping that they would capture some of the darkness and creepiness of the game, I was certain that it would entertain, which ultimately is what we all want from a movie. So did it make me want to have all the lights on so I wouldn't be "alone in the dark" or was it a snooze on the sofa with all the lights out?
To prepare myself I wandered off to the impressive official website, looking very H R Giger. I viewed the trailer and I must admit I enjoyed that. OK this was never going to be a good thought provoking film, but a decent, dark, sci-fi action flick would be fine with me. The Aliens seemed very?. well Alien as in from the film Alien, but that just could have been because the trailer screen was fairly small, I would reserve judgement ...
Advantages: Fun, great music, basic and easy to understand Disadvantages: not so good to "get fit", too basic at some points
I've literally just finished the end of this DVD and thought Id write the review whilst it was still fresh in my mind!
Pineapple Studios Everybody Dance does what it says on the tin "Learn To Dance, Get fit, & have fun!" - but only just.
The choreographer is really good, and her credibility is backed up by the fact that she has worked with stars like the Sugababes, Rihanna and Mary J Blige. You definitely warm to her, shes not patronising, and you do feel part of the dance class whilst she is teaching you the moves!
There are three main routines that she teaches you, each with a chorus and verse - "Maneater" by Nelly Furtado, "SOS" By Rhianna, "Aint No Other Man" by Christina Aguilera and "Beep" by The Pussycat Dolls. The DVD also includes other extras like meeting the dance troupe, make up tips etc as well as a full routine ...
Anna Forbes' life is perfect until her father-in-law tries to rape her. Her husband, Mark, decides that his wife is lying and as a result Anna is referred for psychiatric help. Her life becomes a living hell until Mark begins to realise his mistake... Based on a true story.
