Sunday Brunch

Filler until regular blogging schedule resumes. :-)

1) Do you use bookmarks?

I try. It's a habit I'm trying to get into as I read more and more library books and don't want to dog-ear the pages. I like to make them, so I'm hoping that I'll eventually make one cute enough that it will inspire me to use it. :-)

2) What is your favorite book?

Pretense by Lori Wick, if I had to pick just one.

If I don't have to pick one, I would also include the Anne of Green Gables series (really, anything by L.M. Montgomery), Christy & Julie by Catherine Marshall, Little House on the Prairie books, and the Mitford series.

3) Who is your favorite author?

Any of the above (Lori Wick, L.M. Montgomery, Jan Karon). Also enjoy Janette Oke, Mary Higgins Clark (occasionally), Lawana Blackwell, Terry Blackstock.

4) What is the movie you feel is the most authentic version of a book?

I thought that the Little Women version (with Susan Sarandon, Winona Ryder) was very close although definitely shorter than the book. I'm having a hard time thinking of any . . . the Harry Potter movies were very close, although, again, some was cut for length.

5) Is there a book you wish they would make into a movie and why?


I'm drawing a blank . . . although I am looking forward to the Chronicles of Narnia movies that are in process.
