"The Golden Hat" Book Review

The Golden Hat: Talking Back to Autism by Kate Winslet
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thought this was quite cute and thoughtful! What a wonderful thing for Kate Winslet to do. And the mother of that child must be so strong, although probably much happier now.

The pictures were really good, a whole new side to these people! A bunch of them waxed poetic with their quotes but I personally loved the ones that were funny: George Clooney - "I'm sorry for 'Batman and Robin'." Daniel Radcliffe - "Good luck getting me to shut up now." Conan O'Brian (Coco!) - "More hairspray!" And Hugh Jackman is also in it, but I can't remember what he said because I was too busy drooling over his picture.

Keli is a very interesting person and I truly hope he's happier now than he was. What a wonderful book and what a wonderful organization! I hope it reaches it's goal!

"The Woman in Black" Book Review

The Woman in Black (Movie Tie-in Edition): A Ghost Story by Susan Hill
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

SPOILER ALERT!!! Read at your own transgression.

I enjoyed this book; it was a very fast read. In comparison to Stephen King and others like him, it was scary but not scary enough. Although the incidents that happened in this book are more like an actual haunting. Not a whole lot happened but it was still kind of spooky.

In comparison to the movie version, it was slightly more informative about certain characters but I think the movie was better. There was more heartbreak in the movie. I think the movie's ending was better, because Mr. Arthur Kipps was with his family then. At the end of the book he watched his family get killed.

I still feel the same way about the ghost though: she is a bitch. An unforgivable bitch. You could feel sorry for her a bit but then all those kids died and Kipps lost his family and it was like "no, I don't feel sorry for you anymore."
