Do you like Dan Brown books? Sometimes all l want is to read a book that entertains me. It's not high literature, just a good read. I think Dan Brown books are in this category. What do you think?

Do you have a bookworm life?  While l don't read many books these days l listen to audiobooks nearly everyday. I'm walking or on the bus most days and listening to the latest book. I like the sound of being a bookworm. As l have said many times l love the arts and see a lot of things. Well, l'm listening to a book when l'm traveling to the shows.  It's a grand life. Let me know if you're a bookworm like me.

We have a Swedish poet today.  Another interesting poem from Ingela Strandberg. Hope you enjoy.

I've seen another film.  Yes, 2 in 2 weeks, most unusual. This past week it was Frankenstein and what a good film it was. I haven't read the book so don't know how faithful this film is to it. A big production that was written well, acted well; it was a good film. The acting was good from all cast members and, the actor who played the being must have spent hours in makeup to look the way he did. It's a film that is a horror from start to finish with themes that make you think about them afterwards. My takeaway is that Victor was the true monster. How lucky am l to see 2 good films recently and l've seen the shorts of a film that is releasing in November and l will see that one too. Frankenstein 4 out of 5 stars.

The latest Peter James book is out  I think Peter James is a good crime fiction writer. This book has a different setting but it's still worth reading.  Let me know if you read Peter James.
