My Friend Anna: The True Story of a Fake Heiress | Rachel DeLoache Williams

pick

Time heals all wounds, and Rachel seems to have moved on from the toxic friendship she had with Anna. But what a wild ride! I can see how Anna was able to scam Rachel in the moment. What I don‘t understand is why Rachel was friends with Anna in the first place. I get wanting to have a good time but Anna just seems like a vile person. #thepowerofgoodbye #movember

Megabooks Exactly!! Why did they become friends?? Anna was bad news from the start. 5y

Cinfhen Looking forward to this book!!! 5y

Reviewsbylola Right! She says she wasn‘t using Anna for her money but I have a hard time believing she would have hung out with her if Anna was just a normal person. Because what would be the draw then? Certainly not her personality. @Megabooks 5y

Blackadder: The Whole Damn Dynasty | Richard Curtis

#ThePowerOfGoodbye made me think of the last episode of Blackadder Goes Forth, entitled Goodbyeee. The last scene is incredible - the characters are shown, in slow motion, going “over the top”; the scene then fades out and the scene of the battle as it is today, a poppy field, fades in. For a comedy show, it‘s one heck of a moving scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm5n27y0WmQ

#Movember @Cinfhen

CarolynM The switch in mood in that episode, from the usual blend of wit and absurdity to the total seriousness of that final scene, is so well done. My favourite episode, though, is still Private Plane - Rik Mayall forever💔 5y

Cinfhen Not familiar with this series but that scene sounds very powerful 5y

kezzlou85 Oh that scene just gets me everytime. It's so powerful and devastating. 5y

One of the most powerful portraits of a spiritual crisis that I've read in recent memory.

Philadelphia Spiritualism and the Curious Case of Katie King | Stephanie Hoover

I‘ve highlighted this book before...

Spiritualism and communing with the dead wasn‘t a new concept in the 19th century, but interest peaked post Civil War, for #ThePowerOfGoodbye .

Enter Katie King, a spirit who entered parlors during seances & helped bridge the gap between the living and the dead. Or, did she? Hoover records the history; I haven‘t read this yet, but I‘ve heard Hoover speak on the subject, and she‘s compelling! #Movember #NFNov
