DON’T LOOK BACK BY BEN CHEETHAM
I read this book via an audio book, so my experience might be different than others. Overall the story felt all over the place. It seemed a mix between a horror and suspense but never really settling on just one. It sometimes felt like the author was trying to hit many points instead of just…

THE MAKING OF ANOTHER MAJOR MOTION PICTURE MASTERPIECE BY TOM HANKS
When I read Tom Hanks wrote a book, I put it on my list of things I HAD TO READ. I panicked. I was so excited. Once I heard Tom Hanks was reading for the audio book, it was obvious what format I needed. I waited months to get my hands (or ears) on…

A slow journey to disappointment.
