Before I Go to Sleep Book/Movie Review

Rating: 4.5

Originally published on  6/21/13--movie review below

Hi everyone!

I loved this book!  Fantastic psychological thriller and mystery. I liked the intimacy of the book.  There were truly only three main characters, and one of those was not who I was expecting.  I felt the pacing was well done and kept me interested in Christine trying to discover who she is and what exactly happened to her to cause her two decade amnesia.

Child 44

Child 44 is set to hit theaters April 17, 2015!  It stars Tom Hardy, Joel Kinnaman, Noomi Rapace, and Gary Oldman.  I am very excited to see that it is finally coming to the big screen and may just need to brush up on my reading.

Let us know what you think!

Hi everyone!  I absolutely loved this book!  If you haven't had a chance to read it, please do.  It was very well written.  When it comes to mysteries, I hate when I can figure out "who done it" and with what and why before I'm halfway into the story.  With GG, I did not see the twists coming.

Argh! I hate falling behind!

Hi everyone!

So I fell off the planet due to summer vacations and moving the family.  I still have "Minority Report" sitting in my DVD player, waiting for me to watch.  I still plan on reading all the books for the rest of the year and will just have to get on it!  October is going to be a busy month.  Thank you for your patience!

Serena Book/Movie Review

Rating: 4

Hi everyone!  I thought Serena was a very great read.  Ron Rash is a great storyteller.  He has an extensive vocabulary relating to the novels era and I found I did have to look up certain words because I was unfamiliar with the terminology.  You don't really use "jodhpurs" in your daily conversations nor "chifferobe" for that matter.

Fancy pantsy jodhpurs!
