Recommendations...

I have some recommendations to make for movies and books. I have been on a kick lately on bittersweet romances. I didn't really plan it that way, it has just happened. I recently finished reading the book Dear John, by Nicholas Sparks. It is probably my favorite of his books so far. I highly recommend it.



I just recently watched the move Miss Potter. It has Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor in it. It is a movie about the life of Beatrix Potter, the famous childrens author of The Tale of Peter Rabbit and many others. It was a very good movie. I learned alot about her. I highly recommend it.




Next, I somehow have gone on living my life without ever reading or seeing the movie Pride and Prejudice. I know go ahead and gasp with unbelief! Well I can't believe what I have been missing all these years! I highly recommend this movie as well. I know there is a 5 hour version out that, but I'm not sure if I could sit through that.



Finally, the next one is not a romance story at all, but it was a very good movie. I learned about history in this movie, it was slow in some parts but it was very fascinating learning about Jesse James. It is good I know of this history since he was shot right here in St. Joseph, MO and because Ricky is related to him. So I highly recommend this movie too!
