I couldn't stand the book--didn't finish it. In fact, like Lee, I only gave it a chapter or two. The movie I did like okay. I just like Meryl Streep, though. Rarely is a movie better than a book, but definitely the case in this instance. Oh my gosh, Susan, I so agree! I couldn’t stand the book–didn’t finish it.

I do love Pride and Prejudice, but mostly it's Colin Firth in the A&E version that I love. :) Life is too short for books we don't love! I have to be in a certain mood for J.A., too, Kerry.

I haven't read the Anita Blake series...maybe because I'm afraid to! Great example of a series with hype, W. I haven’t read the Anita Blake series…maybe because I’m afraid to!

A friend said she only takes a few books, but I was in book heaven, taking almost any book that was offered. Well, a year later, most of them still sat on my bookshelves, unread. I'd like to think that I've now grown smarter and I also have a 'donation' bag going at all times. With such limited reading time, I have to be choosy. BTW, Lee, Denzel looks smokin' in that photo! Great Hero of the Week choice. =) I remember my first year going to RWA’s National conference.
