I wanted to buy one of your books... well, at least I finally decided too with my stash at Amazon! ~hehehe~ shhhhhh I never carry money, so when hubby does give me cash to go buy something he always tells me to keep the change then I save it for mad money. ~hehe~ I usually buy something frivolous! lol I bought your book Dragon of the Stars. It caught my eye & I'm in the mood for a good book (which doesn't happen to often). My favorite book is Stephen King's The Dark Tower. I finished No. 1 and now on the second series.. which is taking me forever... but believe it or not I think I want to reread No. 1 to refresh me. Anyway, what did you take with our A thru Z stuff... I really don't see it or am I just dense? :( I took the Music one as you probably would've guessed so thank you for stopping by. BIG HUGS & HAVE A ROCKIN' WEEK. Oh & thanks for the review I really like Dwayne Johnson.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704557878557621396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-9427628799349687412018-04-04T18:11:36.753-04:002018-04-04T18:11:36.753-04:00Music is definitely a big source of inspiration fo...Music is definitely a big source of inspiration for me too!!! <br />Thanks for sharing all of your reviews here :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06450906591494410985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-45071574967280305032018-04-04T17:02:04.959-04:002018-04-04T17:02:04.959-04:00Beetlejuice?

At first I thought it was another movie review and got really excited.<br /><br />I was disappointed in the Dark Tower film. It oversimplified the story, left out key characters, and pretty much killed any chance for a sequel. Maybe someone can try again in twenty years.<br /><br />The book series is a different story, but the first book is the weakest of the seven. The rest are so much stronger. You should have started with the second.Tamara Narayanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03725262301091012950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-71576335252600576232018-04-03T09:25:40.990-04:002018-04-03T09:25:40.990-04:00I'm always thankful for your movie reviews, so...I'm always thankful for your movie reviews, so I know where not to waste my time. And I like the way you differentiate the way Marvel and DC present their movies! Good way to think of it. <br /><br />Books to movies usually disappoint me, and that's a shame . . . but it makes me very cautious about what movie I'll bother with if I've loved a book. I did enjoy your IWSG post with the lessons from movies! That was terrific and so accurate.

I almost gave up on the series when it first came out but decided to give the second book a shot, and then that's when it really picked up. As for the movie - meh.
