Not book related, but who needs a porch goose when you have a portrait of your dogs? New tradition unlocked: they'll be getting themed hats every season from now on. 😂🎩👒🧢

I've had this on my TBR for a really long time so I'm glad to finally have read it!
I always liked the movie but felt like there was something missing from it and so I was hoping that the book would give me something more but oddly enough the book read even choppier, if you can believe it.

Dialogue felt stilted at different moments, scenes were awkward in a way that weren't in the film but all in all a solid read that reminded me of why I love it

I've been going back and listening to the audiobooks of Batman movie novelizations. Unfortunately, Batman '89 was easily the best, maybe the only good one so far. I was not a fan of the narrator here, especially his Riddler voice. There are some “deleted scenes“ that were interesting, but, maybe due to the narrator, I just wasn't too invested in listening closely and sussing out the differences.

It's well established in the book that Mrs Bennett was a beauty "in her youth" so this illustration made me laugh. At the time of the novel she'd likely be 45 at most (probably closer to 40) yet this artist chose to make her look a great deal older. ?

Few ideas for 'Now' discussion of Sense & Sensibility. I can't wait to see what everyone read & watched! 📖📚📺

Watched these two adaptations over the last two evenings and I truly love both. I had forgotten Anna Madeley (Mrs. Hall of All Creatures Great & Small) was Miss Lucy Steele. Maybe the 2008 3 episode series has a slight edge since it has more content than 1995 film.

Finished this Metal Earth AT-ST model while listening to the Batman Returns novelization. Pretty disappointing. The narrator was all over the place with his voices, Max Shreck being particularly rough. There was a lot more misogyny from the Penguin in this adaptation, which was weird. Stick with the movie.
