Veronica Pena (690 KP) rated Cheaper by the Dozen (2003) in Movies

This is one of my favorite films of all time. I don't even know how many times I've seen it and I'm sure I'll continue to watch it well into my old age. I love the cast and the plot, I love the chemistry that they have and that definitely carries over into the second film. I think Bonnie Hunt is such a babe and she's talented as hell. And obviously Steve Martin is Steve Martin.
I think this is genuinely one of the greatest films and no one can convince me otherwise.

This would have been better as a novella. I felt there was more filler than normal and it was odd that she had two books building to something, I expect that the next one will be something large. I'm not going to lie I did think of Monty Python while reading this book so there were some unintentionally (?) funny parts. There is the usual Mercy wit so that's good Picks up not too long after Storm Cursed. I enjoyed this book but it wasn't my favorite.

I really enjoy Kate Mosse's books, and I always devour them. This book is the start of the new series, and, of course, it takes place in Mosse's favorite area, Carcassonne.
Honestly, the mystery involving Minou was fairly easy to solve, at least for me. I enjoyed the characters and the writing overall.
Now, I just need to find a copy of The City of Tears, the second book in the series. Mosse's books are fairly hard to find here in the USA sometimes, so I'm on the hunt.

What a fantastic book!
I Loved Jody Hedlund's take on this classic fairytale. It was beautifully done, and really was not that similar to the original story which I enjoyed as the original is not my favorite. Both main characters were detailed and well laid out, with fun and interesting twists that kept me engaged. Highly recommend read this one if you like stories of love, hope, and finding who you are.
