Greetings, readers and watchers. This week we will discuss the movie Eclipse, as well as check in on some of our summer shows.

Your hostesses: Brit and Carol

Eclipse
I saw this movie a couple of weeks ago with a friend, and we both enjoyed it. Personally, I have been pleased with the screen versions being pretty faithful to the books, though I don’t always find that this aspect is necessary to my enjoyment. Film is an art form in its own right, and non-faithful or “inspired by” adaptations reflect the filmmaker’s vision – something they are entitled to.

Daring Time by Beth Kery is one of those rare books that let you think you have everything figured out before hitting you over the head with a twist, earning it 4 tombstones.

Everything about this story intertwines the past with the present, from the first time Ryan Daire steps into the house his professor gifted him to the discovery of the dead body of a young girl in 1906. Chicago itself is used as a character, showcasing how society has changed from one century to the next and how it affects the way Ryan and Hope look at life.

St. Augustine was a tourist town, and you never knew when someone would come by, interested in the merchandise. Since she lived above the store, it was a simple matter to walk downstairs, open the front door, and arrange several eye-catching pieces on the front stoop. After turning on the radio and picking up her coffee mug, she heard the front door of the shop open, and turned to greet the customer. (more…)
