About this deal

Billy begins to think that the best way to deal with things – the bills, the threats of custody hearings and concerns about Oscar’s wellbeing, is to just ignore it all and it will all go away soon enough. But that method doesn’t seem to be working very well and the stress begins to wear him down. It doesn’t help that he sees the face of his mother’s killer everywhere he goes, staring at him from across the street, approaching him in men’s rooms. Obsessed with finding him and having him caught, Billy is beginning to let go of the things that are really important. The captivating series delves into the myths and legends behind some of Hollywood’s notoriously “cursed” horror film productions. From the mysterious accidents that took place on the set of The Exorcist, to bombings during the making of The Omen and the rumoured use of human skeletons on the set of Poltergeist… these stories are legendary amongst film fans and filmmakers alike. But is there truth in the tales? Nineteen year-old Billy Smith has an unhealthy obsession with the type of tabloid papers that print tales of the most horrific, downright stupid, and often tragic ways in which people can die. When his own mother’s life ends in a seemingly random act of violence, his world, and that of his much younger brother Oscar, is thrown into chaos. While Billy is trying his very best to take charge and hold on to some semblance of his normal life, all around him aunts, fathers, teachers, and co-workers are trying to force their own set of rules upon him in an attempt to take over control of his life.

Adding to his stress, Billy keeps seeing the youth wanted for his mother’s death everywhere. This person haunts him, as he has destroyed Billy’s whole world and as yet, is going unpunished for the deed. Billy and Oscar are suffering but so far the accused is still out there, still living his life while Billy’s mother is no longer living hers. He immerses himself in magazines that detail weird and wonderful happenings to people (hence the title, as he refers to them as Life! Death! Prizes! magazines because that’s what the cover headlines say, in a nutshell), in trying to make sense of his mother’s own utterly senseless death and their situation.There were two reasons for this – I felt that Billy’s speech patterns fluctuated a lot and not necessarily in a predictable manner. For most of the book his speech was, what I felt to be, spot on, especially the slang and syntax, but there were times when it felt like he was using a much older person’s language and not when you would think he would be doing this. The second reason, was May’s writing style. It bothered me on a couple of occasions when May threw in a list of social media or drinks or most of his lists really. It felt like he was trying too hard to show he was ‘hip’ and ‘up-to-date’ with the lingo of the youth. But, there were a few times where he did this seamlessly and it was great and humorous, but those he didn’t were more noticeable.

Such a hard book to review. So Billy is having a really crap time. He is trying his best. His best isn't great because the people around aren't great. Or are just human and trying their best.

Skilfully put together with a unique, nuanced take, Cursed Films gives an in-depth, enthralling insight into some of the most pivotal horror films ever made and will entrance, entertain and enrich all film fans. It's all very true-to-life, very council-estate modern soap opera story (as the title and magazines that Billy reads shows it is meant to be), and a refreshing read.

Thanks to Neutradol, the fresh air specialists with a product for every smelly situation, you could win this 4-star holiday to Portugal and you will have until the end of June 2022 to go. There is a darker side here too, plagued by thoughts of his mother's now hunted killer, the wayward Aidan Jebb, Billy gradually builds a picture of the youth, and frequently catches glimpses of him as if he is being stalked. But Billy's obsession is in danger of getting out of hand and looks to be heading for tragedy. Life! Death! Prizes! , the heartbreaking book by Stephen May that pulls you completely in the chaotic life of the nineteen-year-old Billy . Even though the genre is not really my cup of tea, it's a wonderful book that broadens your vision on life and especially shows you how a stupid accident can change your life. Lonely Planet KIDS The Maps Book - Explore the amazing world of maps from the first sketches on cave walls to real time maps on phones. A great way for kids to marvel at ancient maps, weather maps and even interactive maps from computer games.I enjoyed reading this book. Billy is a very interesting person in an unusual situation, yet it feels entirely possible. I loved how loving Billy is towards his brother even though he’s going through a difficult part in his life. An other thing that I found well written was the mysterious apprises of Billy’s suspect. That really brings that trilling and exiting tension you want in a book. At home it can’t always feel as refreshing as being on holiday. Unpleasant smells can linger and even professional cleaning may not shift the bacteria that cause them. Covering them up with a cosmetic air freshener, that’s full of unpleasant chemicals, is not the answer.
