Having said that, Van Helsing is one of those films I know is objectively terrible and an absolute travesty to the source character, but I kind of enjoy it anyway. I can neither explain nor justify it even to myself!
On the book, I studied Dracula in school and enjoyed reading it again as an adult. Haven't ever gotten round to Frankenstein but it's on my list to do so! -

Can't link a trailer as Youtube doesn't work on my work system, but the film adaption of H is for Hawk is coming in January.
I really loved the book when I read it (it's about a woman who deals with the grief of losing her dad by raising a goshawk) and Claire Foy is playing the lead. I'd have watched it regardless but I've yet to see Foy in anything where I didn't think she stole the show, so I'm doubly excited.
Brendan Gleeson is playing her dad too. -

I'll go back to Stillwater and TGINW after that.
We've been working our way through Redwall recently in between other things - as you say, it's just a lovely balm between heavier things. Been going in chronological order (so starting with Lord Brocktree) and I think my next one is Mariel of Redwall, Mr NAB's next is Outcast of Redwall

My parents still have nearly every Redwall book and I can't wait for my kids to get to them, as they're incredible.
Mariel of Redwall and The Bellmaker were always my favourites (Finnbarr Galedeep!)
I realize this is not the right thread but allow me a mild derail...Redwall enthusiasts that are also gamers...or if you like Woodland creatures at all...this game comes out in two days.
Mr NAB is genuinely counting down the day to release for this - with him working in gaming, he finds it quite hard to game for fun a lot of the time and something has to really grab him. He's really excited for it. -
