Pickpick

‘I drive. That‘s what I do. All I do.‘

‘Driver‘, a Hollywood stunt driver by day, and a getaway driver by night.

Dark, atmospheric noir fiction. I liked the narration style. This was a fast paced story with all the right details to fully immerse you in the scenes.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Spent most of today reading The Exorcist, so starting something not so spooky on Kindle tonight.

Wonderful Women by the Sea: A Novel | Monika Fagerholm, Joan Tate
post image

This morning I took part in an international women‘s day sea swim. We met at 8.30am, it was windy, cold, the sea is at its coldest in March. But we all dressed up in our funny hats and bright clothes and celebrated being strong women, lucky to be part of a wonderful inclusive community. And whilst I was their I picked up some book recs too! I‘m the one in the middle in a flowery swim cap and Hawaiian flowers round my neck 😁🥶 🏊‍♀️ 💜 🦸‍♀️

IndoorDame What a fabulous way to celebrate!!! 2y
TrishB 😯 wow! You‘re all very brave! 2y
monalyisha I absolutely love this! I hope to find a similar community some day. 💙 2y

A Man Called Ove | Fredrik Backman
post image

Date night last night to see A Man Called Otto! It was so good! I had been looking forward to it since I knew it was being made. It seemed to get almost everything from the book right! Thought Tom Hanks did ‘Ove‘ well. I watched the Swedish film a few years back as well. They were both good in their own ways. #bookintomovie

Kaylamburson So good to hear! I really want to see this. 2y
Aims42 I saw it this weekend and totally agree it matched the book 😁 Tom Hanks was great and the actress who played Marisol was perfect for the role!! I‘m glad I brought some Kleenex though, I cried at the same spots in the movie as I did reading the book 🥹 2y
LaraReads @Aims42 yes I loved Marisol too! I didn‘t quite sob as much at the end as I did with the book, but I was crying most of the movie as well! And my husband hadn‘t read the book, so he had no idea what to expect going in. He said…you might have warned me how sad it would be! 😬 2y

AmyG Good to know. I wasn‘t too sure about this one. 2y
LaraReads @Kaylamburson @AmyG yes, I wasn‘t sure after seeing the trailer either. But I don‘t think the trailer does it justice. Nothing is ever as good as the book, but I think it captures the heart of Ove pretty well. And I really loved how they incorporated the flashbacks. 2y
Kaylamburson That‘s really great! The trailer did not show any signs of sadness. My MIL saw the trailer when we were in town wanting to see it and I told her how I loved the book and she should but that it doesn‘t seem to explain what it‘s about at all. I do think the trailer is doing this a disservice. I wouldn‘t have been interested if I hadn‘t read it. @Aims42 2y
LaraReads @Kaylamburson exactly. I agree with all of that! Because when my husband saw the trailer, he was not interested, but he ended up thinking it was really good. 2y
Kaylamburson Yes, my fiancé has no interest and it makes me sad! lol. I‘ll have to tell him your hubby liked it. @LaraReads 2y
