The best part of the book is the Sommelier
Mira Grant's "The Wine in Dreams" is about a sommelier who learns the lengths to which a person will go for a product representing a fantasy. This is by far and away the best story in the book. it's 4 short stories that interweave in this specific city in the star wars universe, which is essentially Las Vegas turned up to 11. If you love the star wars universe, it'll tickle that fancy, if you're not the stories are still interesting. I enjoyed it.

**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
A stolen baby
An orphan child
A bargain struck

Told her baby died in childbirth, Fancy Dalton grieves for her son. But in the midst of a raging storm, a shadowy figure appears and tells her that he’s alive and well! He was stolen! Now she has an address and a name. From despair comes hope.

One thought drives her—finding and getting him back. Selling everything she owns, Fancy buys a one-way train ticket to Denver. Nothing and no one will stop her. In a mad dash to board the train, she collides with Jack Coltrain. As fate would have it, the rugged cowboy, on a mission of his own, sits next to her. Experience has taught her to be wary of men. But when her bag is stolen, he gets it back and earns a small piece of her trust.

As the iron wheels roll, taking her closer to her two-year-old son, Fancy and Jack discover an orphan girl who needs their help and open their arms to her. Ten hours from their goal, Fancy and Jack strike a deal—her help for his. Desperate times for both call for creative solutions…but marriage, even in name only? However, nothing is off the table. She’ll do whatever she must to save the orphan and get her child back. Still, giving Jack her heart…that’s not part of the bargain.

Movie Favorite

"For my mentor Roy Andersson, De Sica was someone who was looking at individuals within a social structure. His films were looking at societal problems in a very political way, with a very realistic style of shooting, but at the same time, they were very self-aware about their set-ups. I love the scene when the father and son go to a restaurant to spend the last of their money to eat something, and at another table is a different family, with a young boy who is looking at the son. I’ll never forget the way they look at each other and the look of the other boy, who is used to being in fancy restaurants eating pasta. It’s so touching and such a humanistic way of looking at things."

The Best Batman Joker movie yet
Bruce Wyane (Keaton) is a billionaire with a dark past on how his parents were killed. His motivation is life has become to never see crime like this happen in Gotham city again and becomes the crime fighter known as Batman. Jack Napier (Nicholson) is a life long criminal who gets dropped into a vat of chemicals and becomes the maniacal criminal villain known as Joker. Vicki Vale (Bassinger) is a reporter who wants to find out out more about the bat and becomes Bruce's love interest but, also strikes the fancy of the Joker. Who will Gotham and the girl belong to when it's all done?

The best Batman movie in my opinion. Keaton gives a great portrayal of Bruce/Batman and Nicholson as the Joker gives us the right emotions that he deserves. Bassinger is also very good as the love intrest. All in all a great watch
