The Orphan Master’s Son
The Orphan Master’s Son by Adam Johnson I was interested in this book since it was about a country that I don’t know much about, North Korea. Unfortunately, the author tried but doesn’t know as much as he wishes he did and that comes through. I couldn’t trust...
Snow White and the Huntsman
A reimagining of the Snow White fairy tale that is darker and leads to Snow White doing some battle herself. I saw this movie with Marci and Stacy. I got together with Amy and Sharon to discuss it and threw in Marci and Stacy’s thoughts on their behalf. We also...

Gone Girl
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn I loved the back and forth in this book. At times, I liked both characters, felt sorry for them, didn’t trust them, hated them & then just went along for the freak show ride. Flynn does an excellent job writing from two different...

Amazing Race: Chupacabra?
At the beginning of the episode, I tried to call it that Kentucky would not last long in the game since the one guy was missing a lot of teeth and the other one gets car sick. Boy was I wrong! They would have come in first place if...
Amazing Race: Lies & Blindness
While we were introduced to the teams on the race, the golf twin sisters stated that people were going to underestimate them, which is what half the all girl teams say when they come on the Amazing Race. They also said there would be no crying. Well, when they...
