October 2026 marked the 20th anniversary of Guillermo Del Toro's film 'Pan's Labyrinth', which makes this the perfect time for you to pick up a copy of the book from your local library.

Pan's Labyrinth uses magic and wonder to explore what it means to be human, highlighting both the extraordinary cruelty and the extraordinary kindness that mankind is capable of.

Halloween may be over, but this still makes for the perfect read.

If you're still thinking about The Odyssey and are looking for more of a Greek Mythology fix, then why not pick up a copy of The Women of Troy by Pat Barker?

Following on from The Silence of the Girls, this novel takes place after the fall of Troy. The Greeks have won, but the Gods are not satisfied. While Priam's body lies unburied, the wind will not fill the sails of the Greek ships, leaving them stuck in limbo. While the war is over, Briseis and the other women are about to learn a difficult lesson - that peace may be just as dangerous for them as war...

Jackie's Friday Film Review
BAD APPLES

In this compelling new release film, the ever excellent Saoirse Ronan moves into a sort of 'Breaking Bad' territory as teacher Maria who finds herself taking radical action to deal with a highly disruptive pupil (Danny, played by Eddie Waller). When she does what she does in a desperate attempt to restore equilibrium to her teaching environment, a curiously complicated crime is put in motion, but one which strangely brings teacher and pupil closer together.

Based on the Swedish novel The Unwanted by Rasmus Lindgren, the film is effective in showing how much is demanded of a state school teacher in the face of seemingly impossible expectations and demands, and what a soul-searching journey that can at times be. Ronan is able to turn in a performance that combines sympathy with an edge and a sense of anger just below the surface. But whether we empathise with her plight or not, it's certainly a story that offers much food for thought.

A new release film available in cinemas and on streaming services 😍
