The second sequel and the last movie of this month is Star Trek Beyond. I was a massive fan of the first two Star Trek films and there's a calming nostalgia around the Star Trek franchise for me that just makes me happy.

I ended up choosing The Weight of Water, the story of Kasienka, a Polish immigrant who arrives in England with her mother, searching… Continue reading The Weight of Water – Sarah Crossan
