“Hogwash, tripe and guff continue to enthrall. Absolutely wonderful escapism which was exactly what I was looking for.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDive in and enjoy but donu0026#39;t take any of it too seriously. It is a fun and overly dramatic ride with kick butt female character who are never at the mercy of the bullies and narrow-minded groups or individuals. Rather they walk all over them in their sweet (and not so sweet) way.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt is an inspiring and over the top reminder to be ourselves and find our calling.”
