Today I want to share with you the book beginning of two books :) I started one, but since the book is a bit sad, I started another one.
So here they are
I don't have to look up to know Mom is making another surprise visit."
" Chapter 1 AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY
In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
I really like The silver linings playbook by Matthew Quick, but it's sadder than I expected. I was watching TV and then, in a program started talking about this film. I felt in love with the plot immediately and I wanted to read it right away. i started it and I realised it was good, but at the same time sad. When I watched some pices of the film I didn't get the impression, although the topic is mental illness, that it'd be told in a sad way.
The hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien is a re-read. I started last month and I didn't want to keep reading, but yesterday I was totally in the mood for this book. I haven't read much, but I laughed several times.
The movie was wonderful - heart warming, funny, sad but ultimately uplifting.
ReplyDeleteThe Hobbit beginning just makes me smile with lots if childhood memories of reading this book :-)
Cool! :D The book is sad, but engaging at the same time. i can't wait to watch the film and Bradley Cooper ;) ;)
DeleteI absolutely love the beginning of the Hobbit, it just makes me very happy! I love the Silver Linings movie, so I think O should try the book as well! Hop on over to my Friday post if you have the time :)
