so-so

I read this one for my school‘s #BattleOfTheBooks . It was fine. Nothing special. I didn‘t really understand most of the MC‘s decisions. I. Never really got into this. I read this book because the MC is a newsie, and Newsies is one of my all time favorite musicals, but there was hardly any. newsie-ing. There were maybe 3 paper hawking scenes and they all had the exact same dialogue. 3⭐️

This was a really good book. Had a hard time putting it down. Very well written, and I loved the characters.

bookseller_cate My best friend and I would watch this over and over on repeat, to the annoyance of her siblings. 6y

bookseller_cate This book actually mentions some of the kids the characters were based on. 😊

Andrea313 @bookseller_cate Same with me, to the annoyance of my parents. I am still trying to convince my childhood best friend to watch this with me; I'm thinking after 25 years of "Hello no!", I should admit defeat. ? 6y

Andrea313 @bookseller_cate Thanks for the recommendation! 6y

The Winters Tale | William Shakespeare

I choose Christian Bale as my Leontes. I think he‘d do a good job. #ShakespeareReadalong @merelybookish

BookishBelle @Ddzmini 😍😍😍 is right! 😁 6y

bookcollecter I liked Christian Bale from the time he was child actor... remember #Newsies ? But then I heard his on set abusive tantrum and lost a TON of respect for him. Not a very nice guy 6y

BookishBelle @bookcollecter I hadn‘t heard that! 😮😮😮 6y

bookcollecter Did you listen to it? It's on YouTube. He also got arrested for abusing his mother and girlfriend 😕 6y

merelybookish Yes, I remember what @bookcollecter is referring to. Makes him quite suitable to play Leontes!! 😯 (And he is handsome!) 6y

BookishBelle @merelybookish You make good points! 6y
