These are not stories. Often I haven't seen the movies she is talking about. But reading the reviews is relaxing for me. I appreciate her enthusiasm and her writing skill. Others: Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, Upton Sinclair's The Jungle (when I want to feel good about what I do for a living),Russell Hoban's Turtle Diary.

I love the emotions and what the angst between her characters make me feel. And on a totally basic level, I simply love the complexity of the hero. My guilty pleasure movie is Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. The theme of fated lovers gets me every time and each time I watch it I secretly hope they'll get a happy ending but...she dies every time. :( All the Queens Men by Linda Howard is my guilty pleasure read.

TWILIGHT--golly, how could I have missed mentioning the whole Protector thread in that?? It's very Gothic, this notion of the Protector protecting the heroine from himself. And thanks for the congrats for my nephew. He's doggone proud--as are we all! Mallory–good to see you. TWILIGHT–golly, how could I have missed mentioning the whole Protector thread in that??

My SIL was all over the Army Mom tee shirt. Interesting that men appreciate our independence while we mostly hide the secret that some days we want to be protected. Thanks for swinging by, Angi.
