It's Been A While! Lots to review!

HI PEOPLE!!
I havent posted since school has started and I have three things I need to rewiew.  But first, I need to say my new guidelines.  I will only be reviewing new things.  This includes movies I see withing two weeks of its release, and books that are still available in hardcover only.  However if I read or see something that has to do with current events I will post about that too.  Also, I will be limiting the info I give before I review.  By the way todays reviews will be ultra short and get my point across.

MINI REVIEW #1
Title: Where the Wild Things Are
Genre: Fantasy
MPAA Rating: PG
Summary: 9-year old Max gets mad at his mom and sets off into the wilderness and finds a bunch of wild things whom he becomes friends with.
Review: A kids movie with great themes. However, this movie was designed more for adults than kids.  Great artistic and moral value in this film. Very mysterious as well. All in all, it was great! Very thought provoking.
Grade: A

MINI REVIEW #2
Title: Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea
Author: Chelsea Handler
Genre: Memoir
Summary: Comedian Chelsea Handler recolects on some funny events in her life.
Review: Chelsea is funny as ever in her second book and it's great to listen to her own experiences in her own words.  I really hear her presence and it's almost as funny as hearing her on TV.
Grade: B+

MINI REVIEW #3
Title: Leviathan
Author: Scott Westerfeld
Illustrator: Keith Thompson
Series: Leviathan
Genre: Steampunk, Alternate History
Summary: Son of the recently murdered Arch Duke Ferdinand, Aleksander tries to go into hiding.  Scottish 15-year old Deryn Sharp is a girl posing as a boy to serve in the British Navy.  Somehow their lives will cross paths and the world may never be the same in this alternate history of WWI. They are on opposite sides of the war. Alek is a clanker, the side that uses heavy machinery to fight.  Deryn is a Darwinist, the side that uses fabricated animals to fight.
Review:  It's by Scott Westerfeld.  Therefore, it is great.  The 50 illustrations in this book made it much more enjoyable.  It is great to see the beginning of another trilogy by Scott Westerfeld.  The characters were very developed and as always, this alternate world is very advanced.  A great read for young adults and keeps you anticipated for the second and third to come.
Grade: B+
