A Dirty Job Book Review

So, I just finished reading the book A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore. This is a fantastically entertaining book which I recommend strongly.
So the plot of the book follows Charlie Asher, just your average beta male. When his wife dies shortly after childbirth, Charlie finds himself taking on a new job as death.
Okay, one thing that I want to make clear about this book is that it has multiple laugh out loud moments that are really really funny. Granted this doesn't happen all the time in the story but when it does it really hits!
The characters are always entertaining, and I think that there was not one primary or secondary character that I did not like. Pretty much all of the characters had something to add to the story in a way that really portrays it very well.
If you're up for a little dark humor, you will like this book. If you like a little bit you silly adventure, you will like this book. If you've read this book before, please tell me what your thoughts of it were in the comments. If you haven't read it yet because of some reason that you haven't heard of this book, go out and get it!


final score: 4/5

Coda Movie Review

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was  phenomenal, the  cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
