I have to check out Estelle Getty as I am not sure who she is....but Shirley would also be great. I never did decide who I thought should be Stephanie. But I thought for sure
Queen Latifa for Lulu!

Phillip Gulley's series about Harmony. Its a ficticious small town and the characters are so real. They remind you of people you actually know. So funny --they once had to impeach the Sauasage Queen when they found out she was vegetarian. The author is a minister and the themes are good clean fun!

I'll have to see this movie...that was a very disturbing book...

This book kept me on the edge of my seat and was also very interesting to read about the history of the Chicago World's Fair. Great book, can't wait for the movie. I hope they don't cast Julia Roberts in it. She just killed Eat, Pray, Love for me.

The National Park Service personnell do not care for these books at all. They are interesting fiction, but not factual. Unfortunately people reading her books expect the parks, animals, weather, terrain etc. to be as she writes, not as actually exists.

Hey ! I didn't know they were making a movie yet. When I first started reading the Stephanie Plum books, I thought Sandra Bullock would be perfect . Who is playing the part in the movie ?

Well..let's get it over with..I said to myself...I was glued to the story before the first disk was over. =)

I'm reading Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens. There are many classics I missed reading or even knowing about so I make sure I read at least three classic books every year.
