I haven't seen any new movies yet, but I would like to recommend an oldie, but goodie. Fiddler on the Roof is a wonderful movie and the music is fantastic. I watched it today for the first time ever and I am now wondering what took me so long. If you haven't seen it yet, you must. It is a must see.

On the book front I just finished reading, Just Desserts by Barbara Bretton. Guys I am telling you this woman is amazing. Before I read this, I read Casting Spells, which was also good, and I must say that she keeps getting better. (Casting Spells came after Just Desserts). Now I am making it my mission to read every book that she has written to date. I hope they are all as good as the two I have already read. If you have ever read anything by this author let me know what you thought, if not start with one of the two I mentioned above.

Has anyone been watching American Idol? Well, you should. That show gets better every season. I am glad that they added a judge, but all I really need is Simon. He says almost exactly what I am thinking while I watch. Plus the way he says it is more entertaining than anything I would have actually come up with on my own. Gotta love Simon. The best judge ever.

Anyway, guys I am currently reading Romantic Times BookReviews Magazine. When I am done I will make a list of books that I thought sounded interesting and that I am planning on reading. I have a list that dates back to Feb. or Mar. 2008 of books that I want to read. I am going to share that list with you a little at a time and by genres.

See ya next time.

Great Movie

I went to see
He's Just Not That Into You
at the theater on opening weekend. My caption or title says it all. It was definitely a great movie. It was funny and romantic, my two favorite things. The thing I like the best is that you and relate to the characters. You will be sitting there comparing them to you and your friends. Please, Please Please go see this movie. It's a definite MUST SEE.

There is so much I want to say about it, but I am afraid that I will say to much. I will say ladies, we definitely act like the people in this movie. At one point or another we have all been there and done that. When you see it you will know what I mean. Guys, the same goes for you too.

Come back and let me know what you think. I am so excited for you who are just now going to get the chance to see it.


For those of you who love action go see
Taken
, it is also a great movie. Liam Neeson did a wonderful job. He kicked some butt.

Happy New Year

I know its been a while since the last time I posted anything, so I decided it was time for me to say Happy New Year and I hope that everyone sticks to their resolutions. I'm saying that but, I didn't even make any this year, so I guess I will now.
1. Quit Smoking: Don't all smokers or at least most make this resolution every year. Well I promise to give it a try. Wish me luck.
2. Start Working Out: I know this is another big one, but I really have plans to start doing this. I will be leaving my twenties behind this year, so it is time for me to start to live my life better in a healthy kinda way.
3. Have a complete physical, get an eye exam, get a dental exam, have annual with gyn: I miss the annual last year and I have never missed one before, the rest of them is just something I feel I need also.

OK that's it as far as my resolutions go. I wonder what you all have decided to do this year, what are your resolutions?


Now on to the reason I have this blog. On the book front one of my favorite authors has a new book that has just been released. Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole. Now I fell in love with her while reading The MacCarrick Brothers trilogy. She is an exceptional historical and paranormal romance author. Her new book is part of her The Immortals After Dark series.

On the TV front, I want to recommend something that I may have already recommended, but I love the show and I want people to start watching so that it will stay on for a while. The show in question is Privileged on the CW in my area that channel 21. Find it and give it a shot and let me know if you enjoyed it. Right now it comes on Tuesday nights at 9/8c.

On the movie front, I am recommending The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Please let me know what you think. I have been discussing this movie with a few people and none of them seems to really like it. The say beautiful makeup and scenery, but bad acting on Brad Pitts part. I think that it is an exceptional movie period. I love the job that everyone did it is simply fantastic, but that is only my opinion. Let me know what you think.
