Event Starts: Oct 24, 2010
Please visit the site below and give to my friend Meri for a GREAT cause! Most of my animals in my ZOO have come from the SPCA or something similar to it!
I love a book with more then one genre going for it! And this book was vampire comedy mystery and love story all rolled together! I really enjoy Christopher Moore’s way of looking at things.
I read Shutter Island a few months before it became a major motion picture. The book was slow to start but then it drew you in and gave you something to think about. This was not a skim it and read it quickly, this was a book to read in depth and pay attention to every word. For there is a nice big twist in the end. I really enjoyed the book by the end, and was quite happy I stuck it out through the first few slow chapters. So since the book was good, I thought I’d give he movie a chance too…
Shutter Island The Movie
The movie was not as bad as I had heard it was going to be. Well at least for me it was not. My husband watched it along with me not knowing the story line in which I was previe to having been that I read the book ahead of time. He felt the movie was ok but lacking in some thing. I could understand this from his point of view, but from mine it was well done for the time frame in which it could do a movie vs the book. Again as with Twilight, James Patterson, Steven King, Anne Rice, Percy Jackson, and yes even Harry Potter… The book still wins! I recommend reading it then watching it!
Looking forward to Water for Elephants, (book was great). Along with Let the right one in, and Girl with the Dragon Tattoos…and many more great books with good films to follow LOL.
A good follow up to the first book. Gave lots of insight into who Lisbeth is and left you wanting to crack open number 3 to see what she gets herself into next!
Now this is a vampire book! Thank you Meri for the borrow (ps jean has it now). This book had it all dark, death, blood, torn feelings. Some people you loved dome you truly hated!! Can't wait to watch the movie now it's in my net flick i...
Not really my kind of book, skipped around between characters a bit much for me. But still an interesting read. Interesting characters, and the trials of life they had to deal with. Family dynamics, Family secrets, we can find someone to...
