I do not really like giving books that deal with serious subjects a low rating. However I found it really hard to get into. It got better as it went along but it was hard for me to focus on the narrative.

Strong unique powerful film
Shoplifters is a very strong and unique film. What seems like an ordinary family is anything but. A group of people instead found each other and it asks the question what is family and how are we tied.

As a fan of this author and of the classic Pride and Prejudice, I began reading this one with pretty high expectations. However, I was disappointed.

While the writing was as good as expected, I found myself simply not enjoying the story.

Found this film on Amazon prime hadn't seen this movie in 25 years it's not bad movie the effects maybe outdated and some of the acting bit overacting but it does have its charm and I like it

One good thing about the sorting out we're currently doing is that I have found my Arthur chess set. I'd forgotten just how much detail in each of these pewter figurines. Can't wait until I can have this on show again!

"I love Maira. She is always talking about this country and how we behave, and looking for the good news. This book is incredibly important to me because it's about Thomas Jefferson and our founding fathers, and how she kind of found them."

"Based on interviews with Malcolm X between 1963 and his 1965 assassination. The book explores Malcolm X’s philosophies and his evolution. I’ve reread the book once a year since college and have found myself just as moved each time as the first reading."

Book Favorite

"I usually shy away from books that are so much about the male experience, but I continually marveled at Mr. Williams's ability to rivet the reader, and found myself audibly groaning at the lack of choices made by dear, sweet, myopic Stoner."
