"I love this drama by Nicholas Ray, shot in CinemaScope. James Mason plays a professor and family man who has a troubled relationship with over-the-counter drugs. Bigger Than Life is a modern take on U.S. society in the 1950s that was unusual at a time when Hollywood and television were invested in depicting picture-perfect nuclear families. The film is both disturbing and fascinating."

Book Favorite

"An extraordinary memoir by an extraordinary woman. Each chapter is composed to the men (real and imagined) in her life who feel at once brilliantly mythical, and painfully earthbound. There are letters to former lovers, briefly encountered heroes, fictional paramours, and family members, and like with Lena Dunham’s book, I’ll shuffle through and reread to laugh and weep as if it were at first time."

Michael Chabon's newest novel lifts the accounts of his grandfather's life out of the sphere of mundane reality and directly into the realms of compelling fiction, with some artistic blurring along the way. Read more about what I think of this already acclaimed novel in my review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/12/20/the-scale-of-a-family/ (4.5 stars is my real rating).
  
3.5 stars.

I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first one, when everything was so new and Jessie was learning to love her new family. Everything is more settled down, other than Jessie's love life of course--who should she choose: Tom or Jack? I was pretty equally torn until the half way-ish point and now I am pretty firmly Team Jack.
