Batman, Bruce Wayne--murderer? | Chuck Dixon, Ed Brubaker, Greg Rucka

I actually really enjoyed this. It showed Batman and Bruce Wayne as a flawed person and we see his other sidekicks. It does actually make you wonder if he did it. The graphics were amazing too

Bit of a rubbish end to the year. I tried to get some books in to reach my GR goal but didn't quite make it. I enjoyed these graphic novels though

The Joker | Brian Azzarello

Creepy and definitely a less comedic version of the Joker we know from TV and film. A very interesting story

Really enjoyed this book I read it so quickly. Good to see this genre written by a woman as it seems to me to be more male dominated

My only completed book on holiday which is disappointing but I enjoyed this book. Interesting story and I like historical fiction anyway

I read the Fall of the House of Usher and Goodreads put the whole book that it is from. I felt cheeky having that many extra pages so I thought I should read the whole book. I accidentally bought the wrong book lol so I read this one too.
An interesting collection of short stories. I liked some better than others. I particularly liked the detective ones.

I quite liked this. The stories were easy to read and enjoyable. The title story is the longest and then the others are very short. Some of them I would have liked to read more

I enjoyed this book. As a nurse I could relate and I liked that she had similar experiences. The last few chapters were heart breaking. I just didn't enjoy the way it was written. I find it like reading an essay with references in and that just spoilt it for me a bit. I would still recommend it though

So I've never watched the movie so I wanted to read the book first. I thought it was ok but it dragged and wasn't really anything special or different

BoleyBooks I don‘t normally rewatch movies, but that one has a magical cast and worth watching every time. 5y
ulrichyumiodd I‘ve heard the movie is much better in this case. I haven‘t read the book, but I love the movie! 5y
Emma3 I'll have to watch the movie then 5y

I think I liked this more than her first book. It was a story that didn't try to be too happy and included the bad things which is real life. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to reading her third book

marleed I saw the movie first but having read the book much prefer the kids in the book who could negotiate their world better than their mom. But I kind of prefer Sandra Bullock‘s bad-ass approach to her character. 5y
Emma3 @marleed yea I agree 5y
adesr16 Hi Emma. I met the above author at a book festival. He signed the book that preceded this book. He was nice 4y
