Fictional Worlds I’d Love to Visit
This week’s topic: Fictional Worlds I’d love to visit I am a fan of the craziness of Alice and Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass so it’s always fascinated me. The book version, the Disney film version, and the live action version with Carol Channing as the White Queen. (1984) There is also a fairlyContinue reading “Fictional Worlds I’d Love to Visit”
Books that should be made into movies
This week’s blogging topic…Books that should be made into movies. Check out some other authors at Long and Short Reviews. I read The Priory of the Orange Tree primarily because I wanted a fantasy novel that was in one volume.

Humorous Book Titles
This week’s blogging challenge is Humorous Book Titles. I chose a few of the oddest that I found. I wonder what this says about the future of our species and what is happening to our planet.

For those who haven’t read the Earthseed Books it follows the tale ofContinue reading “Lesson I Learned From a Book Character”
Books I love that became Films
The Martian is one of my favorite books. I’ve read it at least three times. I love reading about science, and science used well in science fiction. I first found out about it from a suggestion thread in a FB group. Here’s the weird thing: I still haven’t seen the movie. Somehow, my attempts for aContinue reading “Books I love that became Films”
Favorite TV Shows and Why
Most of the shows I watch are shows I like that I own (DVDs) or streaming shows. Some of it is because of the limited number of western shows on Japanese TV; some shows are Japanese shows that English speaking audiences probably haven’t heard of; some of it is frankly, time. I can’t watch TVContinue reading “Favorite TV Shows and Why”
Books I Want Youth To Discover
I’m joining this week’s blog hosted by Long and Short Reviews. I’ll start with the classics. The first mystery books I ever read were in elementary school. The Westing Game and Harriet the Spy. The Westing Game was a difficult mystery when I was so young and I loved the feel of solving it atContinue reading “Books I Want Youth To Discover”
