More Books and Movies

I have tried several times to read the Twilight series books. I cannot get through them. I love the movies, but the books are just boring for me. I read a good book by Beth Moore called So Long Insecurity. This is a good book if you are really focused on what other people think of you. I have also really started to enjoy Nicholas Sparks’ books. His book, The Choice, is an excellent book on love and the relationship between humans and dogs. Another Nicholas Sparks book that I loved was The Last Song. This book also has a romantic theme with a twist of father daughter love as well. The Last Song has been made into a movie and is coming out in March.

One of the movies I enjoyed in theaters was “Fame”. “Fame” is not like all the other dance movies out there and if you watch this movie you will see what I mean. Meet the Morgans was also an enjoyable movie. I am not a big fan of Hugh Grant, but he did make me laugh a few times. Recently I rented a movie called “Forever Strong”. This is a movie about a rugby team. When I rented it I thought it would just be an ok movie. This movie turned out to be excellent.

Introduction

A couple of my passions are books and movies. Books are my place to go to when I want to be lost in another world. They take me to places that I have never gone before. They take me back to the 1800’s where people lived in the prairies and worked hard and spent every minute they could with their families. My favorite author is a lady named Janette Oak, she is a Christian author and writes love stories that are set in the late 1800’s. Books can take me into people’s hearts and minds and I start to feel what they are feeling. There are times when I felt that I knew a person when I would read an autobiography because they shared so much of their life in the book. Biographies and autobiographies can be hard sometimes because some parts of the book can tend to be boring and other parts may disappoint you. Knowing details about someone’s life can be disappointing.

Movies are great entertainment and this is a good way to settle down after along hard day of school or work. The movies that I am most interested in are romance movies. I like The Notebook, the Twlight series, and several other romantic movies. Comedy is another one of my favorite genres. The Proposal is one of my absolute favorite movies. This movie has kept me laughing throughout the entire move. The year 2010 has some exciting prospects of movies coming out and I can not wait to see them. The only thing that I wish is that theater ticket prices were more affordable.
