Omg omg omg omg she did it again. This story is amazing and I still love the characters... they just keep sucking me into their lives and who they are. They make me want to know more and know what is happening. I felt with them, their love, pain and everything in between. I loved the plot of this one also..it is just simply an amazing story and I cannot wait to see what else Laura Howard has in her mind!

Shockingly good
I watched Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri after watching it receive a couple of awards. I was not disappointed.

This movie covers some hard topics - the pain a family goes through after the rape and murder of the daughter, the fact that the crime is unsolved, small-town interpersonal relationships, cancer, suicide, but still has the perfect script to make it a dark comedy. The actors all did fantastic jobs. I highly recommend this movie.

2019 | Biography, Drama

"“Rocketman” was brilliantly executed. The magical surrealism from the first performances align us with what the uber-talented Elton must have been feeling at the Troubadour as he literally got his wings, while taking us from the starting point of how his alienation as a child led to his self-loathing and problems with drinking and drugs. Wrapping layers of glitter and glam around himself like armor to cover the pain created the icon of Elton John we know today."

Buttons and Pain ended on a note so sweet, it could have soothed any craving for the rest of the day. I was a bit surprised by how happy the ending was, but I can't say I'm disappointed. So many important things happened in the course of these three books that the changes in Crow were both quick but welcome. Their story was long and full of drama, so it was nice to see things work out the way they did.

A weepy number to end the weekend
This tale of love and loss takes us to the beautiful Island of Guernsey, where pig farmer Dawsey has been corresponding with Juliet. Juliet travels from London to meet the society that banned together over roast meat and literary greats, to fill the loneliness of the Nazi occupation of Guernsey in WWII. Juliet visits wanting to share their story, and instead shares their hearts and lives. A touching story of pain and healing.
