Books and Movies

I am reading so many books right now. Getting it Through My Thick Skull by Mary Jo Buttafuoco. I checked it out from work a few days ago, and will finish it tonight before I go to sleep. It is an amazing true story. Even if you do not usually read biographies or true stories, you should read this one. I never read non-fiction. But I can't put this one down.
Also, I'm nearly done reading Hunger by Michael Grant. It is the second book in the Gone seris.
I cannot put this one down, either. What these kids have to do, what they go through, it is insane. He really is a wonderful author. I hope it will be a movie someday, it is that good.
The Tommyknockers by Stephen King. Started it, haven't gotten far yet, but I will. So far it's interesting. I finished his Bag of Bones reccently, and am now in the process of reading every book he has ever written. It is going to take some time.
Did you know that Craig Ferguson wrote a few books? He did! I was simply strolling through Barnes & Noble, on my way to clock out and go home after a long day of making coffee in the cafe, and wouldn't you know it? There it was on an endcap, right in my face. I'm broke, but I bought it anyway. Who needs gas for their cars to get to work when you have a book by Craig Feguson?? Lol. I was thrilled! I was a fan of his when he was on The Drew Carry Show. Then fell in love with him one night when I was at the kitchen table putting together a puzzle and I heard a sexy accent on the television. The voice was familiar. No one was watching TV, it was just left on from earlier in the day. I couldn't resist that voice. I got up and saw him, right there on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson. I didn't know he had this show!! Just because he is many, many years my senior does not mean I am blind to his attractiveness. He's also hilarious. So far, the book is good. Between the Bridge and the River. Check it out.
In the process of moving into my new apartment, I have managed to misplace my hardcover copy of Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. I have the bookcover, but just not the book. With my most treasured hardcover books, I usually take off the paper covers and put on a cloth book when I am reading it, so the paper cover doesn't get crinkled or destroyed. The cloth cover then protects the book's actual cover. Call me anal, I just love my books and cannot really afford to replace them should they find themselves covered in milk or mustard. Anyway, I'm very upset about it's absence. I had been reading it, apparently, or else I would not have the cover. Or, most likely, I had given it to my sister to read to her husband on their eighteen-wheeler, and it is burried there still. Now that she has been staying home and going to school, she cannot read it to him. Hopefully she finds it on the truck and my worries will be all for nothing. I can't read Inkspell or Inkdeath until I have read the fisrt one again. So the second and third books are at home, on my shelf, collecting dust and waiting for me to open them. It's depressing. The movie was awesome. Brendan Fraser: you just have to love him. He hasn't been in a movie that I don't like.
I didn't know The 10th Kingdom was a book! My sister found it at a yard sale or something and got it for me. She knew I'd be thrilled. The movie is one of my favorites, and it's also a book!
Speaking of movies, I saw Harry Potter six when it was released at midnight. No doubt, it was the best one they've made. Left a lot out from the book, but it was the best movie so far. It was hilarious. Loved it. Going to see it again on Sunday with my friend Sami. My sister Erin hated it, but then she just doesn't see things the way I do. She just didn't like how it ended. I'm not going to give anything away. I personally thought the ending was beautiful. Carrie was hoping for more action, more wizarding in the muggle world. She was decieved by the previews. My friend Stephanie who went to the midnight release of Twilight with me agrees this was the best Harry Potter film thus far. Go see it!
