Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn - review by Maria Lewis

Image
When I first moved to Australia, I was not – as Dave Chappelle would say – having a great go at it.

I didn’t have anyone to hang out with, so my granddad would pick me after school on his bike and dink me to the local library.
