Bad Education
Directed By: Corey Finley
I generally always find Hugh Jackman and Allison Janney wildly likable often even when I’m not supposed to so it’s a real mark of their performances (and the truth of the story) that they were pretty damned vile here.
House of Salt and Sorrow
By: Erin A. Craig
Once there were 12 sisters living by the sea now after a series of increasingly tragic (and random) deaths there are only 8 left. 8 sisters who after years being shrouded in grief chase a myth through a hidden door that can apparently take them anywhere they want to go.
And life, at least at night, becomes an endless dance.
So I was a bit worried I had jumped the gun on the new Looney Tunes trailer and wouldn’t have anything to talk about looking forward to this week but actually there’s some good ones!
I’m generally using lockdown time to work my way through my backlist books so I thought I’d recommend some great fun reads that I think are wildly under hyped for everyone to, hopefully, enjoy!
Well I guess I’ll just do the bummer news first… Venom II got moved to next June.
The Book of Ralph
By: Christopher Steinsvold
One day after an eclipse the words Drink Diet Coke appear on the moon. So begins The Book of Ralph and me crossing off by far the oldest unread ARC I had on my list.
Though no offense to those who love it but I wouldn’t drink Diet Coke even if the moon told me to.
Well we’ve marked another week and in trying to look at the bright side we did get some fun things to look forward to this week.
Let’s come back to Belle’s new book and talk about the gift Vanity Fair gave me this week.
Miss Buncle’s Book
By: D.E. Stevenson
Is maybe not the best idea!
In need of money Barbara Buncle has written a book about the residents of her small English village. While she does it under a pen name and disguises everyone it turns out not so well and the residents are a bit quicker on the uptake than she might have given them credit for.
Which causes chaos in this quaint English village.
Do you guys sanitize your books?
Honestly until recently it’s not something that ever crossed my mind. And I say that as someone whose always been a germaphobe. When this started I noticed people talking about it for the first time which naturally made me look at my TBR pile with worry.
M*A*S*H
Directed By: Robert Altman
If you had told me that M*A*S*H would be a classic film that I wouldn’t even be able to finish I would have called you nuts. I grew up watching reruns of the show and for some reason always assumed that naturally I’d love the 1970 film it was based on.
I was so wrong.
