Movies/Books

Monday, May 12, 2008

I haven't done this in awhile so the list has really added up. But I really want to keep track of my movies/books throughout the year; so here's a quick update.

Books
The Boleyn Inheritance - got the best
The Queen's Fool - awesome
The Virgin Queen - really good
Water for Elephants - must read

Movies
No Country for Old Men - too violent, but interesting symbolism and writing
Ratoutille - cute but Disney's done better
Into the Wild (half)- I like it although the kids bugs...we've had some debates about this one with Patagonia friends. I am going to finish it tonight
The Other Boleyn Girl - no good as a movie; there was too much info in that book (awesome book!) to try and make a 2 hour movies
The Kite Runner - see above answer
Becoming Jane - really liked it; love most things Jane Austen
Gone Baby Gone - the ending made this one a must see!

One thing I've noticed through the exercise is that I spend alot of time reading fiction and not some much time (none) reading books that could encourage and build my walk with the Lord. Therefore, I'm currently reading The Sacred Romance (I've read parts but never the entire thing) and I am really enjoying it!
