Very seldom is the book like the movie! Are you trying to ruin the movie for me already? I know the movies are seldom like the books, but I like to read the books and see the movies anyway.

No, sorry I was just making the comment I'll shut up now! It's ok. I like all kinds of movies, even the craptastic ones.

okay that makes sense, one book that was similar to the movie was the "The Man in the Iron Mask" the newer one with Leonardo Di.

Nope... in my opinion, the books were better than the movies. The movies ruined the saga for me.

I thought the Twilight books were better than the movie, especially the first one. The movies are craptastic. The books are borderline crap writing. SM is not the bets writer, but I still enjoyed the books. I am not sure I want to read the "Mommy Porn" as the Fifty Shades of Grey books are referred to. Twilight fan fiction made into a novel just seems strange. I hear the woman is not a very good writer with the exception of the sex parts.

I need to take time everyday to read... I keep getting books for free on my Kindle with the intention of reading them but I never do... but for me, reading seems to be easier nowadays on my Kindle. I do not know why.
I have an author I'd like to recommend... I recommended her on my blog a while back and I still need to go to the library... but her name is Lizzie Velasquez. I still need to get her book myself, but I'm already recommending her because she is an inspiration and I already know you won't regret it.

What good book? I think I missed you mentioning it... but a former Church member of yours is a writer? What's the book called? I'll put it on my list of books to check out at the library.

'A tainted dawn" by Barbara Peacock, it's a fairly new book, I have a signed copy she signed for me and she gave a signed copy to my mom as well, mom has already finished it but I am really enjoying it!

So far kissed by an angel by Elizabeth chandler is really good however it is extremely long but its one of those books that keep you turning pages so it goes by fast
