"Why Five Easy Pieces? Also an anti-hero movie. Jack Nicholson is not necessarily a likeable character, but you can’t help wanting to root for the guy. Especially at the end when he goes to the bathroom and hops in a truck and just takes off. For some reason you still like this guy who leaves his girl sitting at a gas station."

Book Favorite

"For when you need a ghost-story romance I just...fell in love with this book. It’s a historical romance set around the restoration of a haunted house with some serious Edith Wharton vibes. But it’s the characters that got me. Our unfairly maligned heroine and our absentminded professor hero are people you can’t help but adore—and root for."

I've never come across a series before (at least, I don't think I have) where you root more for the ostensible villain of the piece than for the hero.

But that's pretty much exactly what I found myself doing here, rooting more for Eddie Redmayne's assassin (the Jackal of the title) than for the MI6 agent pursuing him!

A new New Hope

While there are many complaints of the handling of the Jedi path, I found this volume in the STAR WARS saga to be extremely fun, full of the hope the original trilogy inspired, and a lovely way to introduce more characters to root for.
