OK, before I start this little review, I have to say that I’ve never been a Christmas movie lover, I’m not too much of a Grinch, but for me Die Hard is the closest I get to one, but last night I was looking through Netflix and noticed that The Christmas Chronicles was showing and I’d heard so much about the Netflix film and that it had one of my favourite actors in it, Kurt Russell, so I gave it a try.

As I mentioned earlier, I’m not really a Christmas movie lover, but The Christmas Chronicles has certainly got me in the Christmas mood (even if it is only November), and to top it all I’ve watched again today, purely for review purposes of course.

A slightly fantastical but nevertheless enjoyable story about Doug Parker, a man whose older wife passes away unexpectedly in a plane crash. The novel chronicles Doug coming to terms with his grief, including dealing with his troubled teenage stepson and his equally troubled twin sister, Claire. The plot is a bit much at times, but it's still a rather honest and quick read.

Lots of career and personal details and information (0 more)
A nice insight
This was an entertaining read and a good insight into Martin's life and career. It only goes up to 2013 but it contains some good reading. From Men Behaving Badly to Doc Martin this chronicles of one of the most recognised actors on british television. Well worth a read.

Book Favorite

"Double Cross—which chronicles the events and the people involved in the campaign of deception without which the D-Day invasion could not have succeeded—is a triumph of meticulous research and gifted story telling. If you have any interest in espionage in particular or twentieth century history in general, it would be a crime not to read this book."

In 1978 and again in 1980, author Michael Ondaatje went to visit the island of his birth, Sri Lanka. This book chronicles his visits and tells the stories of his homeland and ancestors in the most poetic and beautifully written memoir ever.
