“A Light Beneath Their Feet” (2015), Director: Valerie Weiss, Actors: Madison Davenport, Taryn Manning Mental health movies are important. Beth (Madison Davenport) must decide between attending the college of her dreams and staying home to care for her bipolar mother (Taryn Manning). Valerie Weiss directs a quiet, thoughtful drama that explores the complicated bond between a mother and daughter facing mental health illness. Manning delivers a powerful performance. Davenport and Manning got the roles for their chemistry. The film is unsettling at times and will make you angry. These emotions are okay. Don’t ever take advantage of someone’s mental illness. It’s also a film about making decisions. Make decisions that are right for you.

The Island of Dr Moreau by HG Wells
Background and Context: You guys probably already know that 'The Island of Dr Moreau' is my favourite HG Wells novel and it has one of the most twisted storylines in Victorian Fiction. It takes the 'mad scientist' trope and turns it into something that blends it with a classic villain from the movies with a cult leader, drunk off his own sense of power. It's a really short book and really easy to read so please, if you haven't read it yet I would recommend getting stuck into it when you have some time. You definitely will not regret it. I've written multiple things about this book in my previous articles, praising it for its incredible themes and its fantastic blend of Sci-Fi and horror. Something that really characterises the era it was written in.

Book Review: "The Palace"by Gareth Russell (Pt. 5)
This review covers chapter 18 to the end of the book *** Chapter 18 covers the reign of Queen Anne, the final queen of the Stuart household and mostly seems to look at the idea that she could barely marry, she had lots of miscarriages and in the end the only child she had lived to eleven years' old and so, she had no heir. There were many questions of Queen Anne's marriage, from her husband participating in homosexual affairs to the ideas put forward in the film The Favourite in which it is Queen Anne who is homosexual and promiscuous. Whatever it was, I definitely feel sorry for Queen Anne - everything must have hurt by the end of her reign, too many pregnancies and miscarriages meant her health was declining quickly towards the end. It's quite sad.
