It's been a little while since I have done a 'book versus movie debate' post but as I have recently read The Stepford Wives I figured that rather than just share my thoughts on the book, I would do a book and film comparison instead. There are two film adaptations, one was released in 1975 and the… Continue reading The book versus movie debate: The Stepford Wives

The books I plan on reading this year
A small confession to start: I am guilty of buying and borrowing a lot of books that I never get around to reading, so this year I am determined to make my 'yet to read' pile a lot smaller in size! I thought it would be fun to share with you the titles that I have picked… Continue reading The books I plan on reading this year
Real books versus e-books
In my last post I did a Book related Q and A and one of the questions that I answered was: 'Paperback, hardback or e-book?' I answered paperback, I didn't even need to think about it, I just knew straightaway. Anyway, that question stuck with me and got me thinking about real books versus e-books and… Continue reading Real books versus e-books
Book related Q and A
Now that a new year has begun and I'm starting to feel a little more confident blogging, I wanted to make my blog a little more personal. By that I mean that I want to show the person behind the blog a bit more. So, I thought I would kick that off with a Q… Continue reading Book related Q and A
My thoughts: Tom’s Midnight Garden
You will have noticed that I have called this my thoughts rather than a review or a comparison and that is because I want to talk about Tom's Midnight Garden both the film and the book but I don't want to compare them or review them in the traditional sense. Instead I wanted to share… Continue reading My thoughts: Tom’s Midnight Garden
The book versus movie debate: Girl Interrupted
I thought I would mix it up a little with this next choice. It's a very different type of book/film than I have looked at before but it's a choice that I wanted to include because I found it to be a very powerful read! As always, I am going to begin with a little… Continue reading The book versus movie debate: Girl Interrupted

I hope you enjoying reading this! TITLE: The Woman in the Wood AUTHOR: Lesley Pearse PUBLISHED: 2017 THE WOMAN IN THE WOOD: SYNOPSIS.… Continue reading A book review: The Woman in the Wood
The book versus movie debate: A Walk to Remember
It was only a matter of time before this one made it into the series. It is quite possibly my favourite film of all time (big claim)! The book however is a different matter. I really like it, I enjoyed reading it and Nicholas Sparks is one of my favourite authors but I wouldn't say… Continue reading The book versus movie debate: A Walk to Remember
The book versus movie debate
I've just started reading The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Have you read it? I don't know why it has taken me this long because I have seen the movie a gazillion times! I love it, it's one of my favourites. It always pops up on the TV around Christmas time with all the other staples… Continue reading The book versus movie debate
My favourite author and my favourite people
Following on from my post Happy Roald Dahl Day! which you can read by clicking the link, I was really curious to see how many other people in my life enjoyed his literature. So, after many messages to friends and family I have compiled a list of titles and reasons that made the cut as a… Continue reading My favourite author and my favourite people
