We have to take the baby out this morning anyway. :)<br /><br />It was really well done, with some big named actors. I put the Shannara series on hold the other day - there are already so many people ahead of me! I have never read Terry Brooks before so it should be interesting.<br />Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-70996767413067912572016-01-11T05:41:06.344-08:002016-01-11T05:41:06.344-08:00Winter was hiding!

Today though, is supposed to be nasty freezing. :( I am up near Detroit.<br /><br />I love JCO! I went on a spree of her books one year and had to stop though - I can't read them back to back, they are too depressing! Lol.

Michiganders seem to think they can handle any road condition and don't bother to slow down or adjust their driving to the weather. <br /><br />I did love it! I am going to have to read more Christie. My dad is a Poirot fan, I will check that out too. (TV and that character)<br /><br />Wow how awesome!!!! And seriously, how did I not know it was a book!! Well, I know what I am requesting at the library next. Lol. <br /><br />Thanks Christina!Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-30838760446068024102016-01-10T14:49:59.303-08:002016-01-10T14:49:59.303-08:00Of Moose and Men looks like a good one.

I think weekend snows are the best..you can just enjoy. I love Bones and Poirot mysteries too.

The grass is white but the driveway is clear, so I don't have to shovel. Yay. That may change though... we have a chance of snow all week. <br /><br />I wish I would have caught the And Then There Were None miniseries. Sounds fun! And I thought Shannara wasn't bad. I'll keep watching. <br /><br />Good luck with your classes! Both sound fun.

It is actually snowing here at the moment and we are supposed to get our first accumulating snow this week (though thankfully less than originally predicted). I think I'd love snow if I could work from home and never have to drive in it! Unfortunately I have a somewhat treacherous commute on hilly and winding roads.<br /><br />I'm so glad you loved And Then There Were None! That is my favorite of her books though I also love the Poirot mysteries. The TV series is excellent too (and on Netflix).<br /><br />I really like The Big Year. The author of the book (played by Jack Black in the movie) is local and he came to our library for a program where he talked about his Big Year and experiences working on the film.<br /><br />Have a great week and good luck with school! I kind of miss it except when I think about all the papers I had to write :) <br /><br />Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.com
