One of Philippa Gregory's Best
Philippa Gregory may have her critics, but I am not one of them. This is one of my favourite novels of hers and she does a great job of introducing the reader to the formidable Bess of Hardwick, a figure from history that I knew next to nothing about, but who was a witness to, and a part of, some important moments in history. One thing that I like about Philippa Gregory is that she is honest about how she "fills in the gaps" of history to craft her novels - her Author's notes at the end of her works always explain this and sometimes detail how it was done. I often reread Philippa's work and I'm definitely going to go back to this, it's been too long.

The Clone Wars movie was basically just an extension of the TV series which I didn't watch much of, but it was decent. It makes me wonder if other Star Wars TV movies would do well.

I would love to see animated adaptations of the Timothy Zahn novels, but that probably will not happen.


This Clone Wars film can still be enjoyed by Star Wars fans young and old.

I really loved this book. It had me hooked from the start, it was funny, realistic and had the right amount of revenge in it.
The characters are really well fleshed out and you really route for Amy and Kat & Greg. I don't want to give any spoilers but I love the overall message about what friendship actually is and I highly recommend this book!
I'll be looking for other novels Jane Fallon has written :)
  
Macey is a naive high schooler who wants to find a date to prom. She reads way to much and decides to use 10 steps from her favorite romance novels in order to get a boy for prom.

This is a short, sweet, and uniquely funny book. The premise is cute and while Macey is beyond naive towards the true love it is so short it doesn't matter.
