Hate is a strong word. But so is love. I want to be clear that when I say I hate these movies, I don’t mean that I’m completely against them. Love is beautiful, after all. It’s universal. Something most people want and everyone can understand. But let me be clear. Even though I read romance […]
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m not a huge movie person, but there are a few movies that I’ve liked enough to buy over the years. Here are the DVDs currently on my shelf, plus two that I need to take to Goodwill at some point. Clueless I’ll spare you more gushing over my favorite movie […]
As the end of the year draws near, I figured it would be fun to join in all the other magazines and websites posting what they thought was the best of the year. I present to you, the best of 2019. May 2020 be just as good or even better. TELEVISION Stranger Things Season 3 […]
I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a huge movie fan but every once and awhile I watch a trailer and think, “Huh. That looks good. I’d like to see that.” I even keep a list of these movies on my phone so I can remember the titles for later. So here, in no particular order, […]
I’ve mentioned before how picky I am about movies, and that also applies to movie soundtracks. Though you probably wouldn’t guess I’m picky based on the following list. But give me a break, some of these soundtracks I’ve had since CDs were still the hip thing (which explains the many Disney selections). Interestingly, as I’ve […]
I’m doing another house/pet sitting gig and unlike last time (when I didn’t bring any DVDs and thus was forced to watch Beethoven and My Big Fat Greek Wedding), this time I came prepared. I went to the library and checked out a bunch of movies and watched them all. So here are my thoughts […]
There are so many amazing romance novels out there that deserve to be made into movies. When I saw the trailer for After back in November, I couldn’t help but get hyped. Well, until I tried to read the book. I did not finish it. I only made it about five chapters in, to be […]
I am currently pet sitting for some family friends. Sadly, they do not have cable or any streaming services so I’ve been forced to raid their collection of DVDs (which is not great). I decided to watch My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which I remember seeing (possibly in the theater) when it came out almost […]
I love, love, love, love romance novels (pun intended). I’ve been reading them faithfully since I was 12 years old (we’ll ignore the brief period in my late twenties when I eschewed romance for “quality literary” fiction) and since I now write romances too, I doubt I’ll ever stop loving them and reading them. The […]
I’m not much of a movie person. As a kid I loved nothing more than going to the cinema with my parents and running around Video One, Blockbuster, and Hollywood Video with my sister, trying to pick out a good VHS then later DVD to watch at home.
