Hi there Funky Fruit-ers – thought I’d give another random book and movie recommendation until we get our act together with the next official book review.
Book Recommendation: Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. Yes, I know I recommended her first book, The Hunger Games, in my last post but this is so worth it. I don’t always like the sequel as much as the first book but this sequel was amazing. I dare you to put it down – I couldn’t, and read the whole thing in one sitting. Warning: it’s not the last book so I’m wanting to know how it ends and I have no closure 🙂
Movie Recommendation: Lars and the Real Girl. I just saw it this weekend w/ my hubby (via Netflix, my favorite thing ever) and we both LOVED this movie. Ryan Gosling can act like Peyton Manning can throw a football – he’s awesome. I thought it would be a quirky, fun little film but it was so much more than that. It was a wonderful story of healing and human connection. Warning: my hubby and I are both psychologists which may have impacted how fascinated we were with the psychological elements of the story (we’ve both worked with delusional disorder), but I think that everyone can relate to the grief issues addressed. It’s an uplifting, heart-warming way to spend your evening!
im reading the hunger games and im 11 but i just cant put it down and every time i do it leaves me hugery for more!!!!!!!!
Sierra – I hope you like the 2nd one as much as I did 🙂
