Underworld: Awakening (From D)

I was with K last Friday watching this movie and had a similar, yet somewhat different outtake. First I'll say I'm not a huge fan of the series, I think it's kinda fun and definitely better than some of the other vampire fare out there (for one they don't freaking sparkle!).

Underworld: Awakening (From K)

Went to see this fourth installment in the Underworld series on Friday night.  The more removed I am from the viewing the more disappointed I am in the movie.  The story had so much potential, humans versus vampires and lycans, and yet it let me down.

Lionheart - Sharon Kay Penman

Long have I been awaiting this book, Lionheart; the beginning of the end of Penman's tale of the Angevin Plantagenet Dynasty spanning generations and countries.  It did not disappoint.

I AM (The Documentary) - Kiggins Theatre




     I attended a free showing of I AM at Kiggins Theatre on Tuesday, January 17th, 2012 and was pleasantly surprised at the attendance, theater and the film’s content.  Tom Shadyac’s search for what’s wrong with the world lays the foundation for discovering connection and meaning in this uplifiting documentary.

The Presence - Heather Graham

I've read Heather Graham's books for a few years.  I'm not sure which book of hers I started with, but I am sure it was one of her Adam Harrison books that hooked me.  Since then I've read her normal along with her paranormal "romantic-suspense" genre books.

Scarecrow Returns - Matthew Reilly

While I'm doing my Wheel of Time re-read I must be reading other books as well, otherwise I'd get way too backed up with books waiting to be read.  Yesterday, it was the long awaited Scarecrow Returns.  

Introduction to a (More Than) Avid Reader

You've heard avid readers talk about their libraries, right?  Stacks of books, overflowing bookshelves, hardback, paperback, signed hardback, fiction, non-fiction....fantasy over there, mystery over here, romance over yonder....
