It would be nice to know what the other movie is. Imitation of Life is one of my favorites, but I don’t know if I’m ready to see it again. Oh well, reserve it anyway and be surprised I say!   posted Dec 11, 2012 at 8:25AM

a real crowd pleaser, but I like Swan Lake much better.   posted Oct 8, 2009 at 2:04PM

My all-time favorite - I have to watch this several times a year just for the music alone!   posted Oct 8, 2009 at 2:04PM

this would be fun for all ages - about a guy who falls who love with a girl who turns out to be a doll, so he goes back to his old girlfriend (who for some reason takes him back!!) - music is beautiful.   posted Oct 8, 2009 at 2:03PM

I listened to the CD book narrated by Jim Dale - I try to listen to EVERYTHING he narrates (Harry Potter books, Around the World in 80 Days, A Christmas Carol) - what a fun book for all ages!   posted Oct 17, 2008 at 8:35AM

I mainly listened to the CD book narrated (he's fabulous), but the book is SO GOOD!!   posted Oct 17, 2008 at 8:33AM

I'm having a hard time being excited about anything Nicholas Sparks writes these days - they always follow the same pattern - boy meets girl, they fall in love, they have a big breakup, they get back together - he's the Danielle Steel of the male gender!   posted Oct 17, 2008 at 8:31AM

This is a fantastic book. The movie was not as good. They might as well have used an entirely different title - there were that many changes, additions, etc.   posted Dec 26, 2007 at 8:04AM

I hated this book, and I hated the movie.   posted Dec 19, 2007 at 7:55AM

This book has inspired me to trek out on my own adventure - not like Lois, but anything is possible!   posted May 30, 2007 at 10:03AM

This book is fantastic - very funny. Best of all, it’s a fast read when you want to read a book in a hurry.   posted May 29, 2007 at 9:54AM

This book is fabulous. It will be my latest book to recommend to everyone. Very funny. Read it, that is an order.   posted May 25, 2007 at 1:07PM

You can't go wrong reading anything Jennifer writes. This is a great book for a single woman with a dog.   posted May 24, 2007 at 8:07AM

I loved Michael's other books - this, not so much. After a while, i skipped all the truck parts and got to the rest. He is quite the story teller! I recommend any of his other books. I'd actually like to have him as a friend.   posted May 23, 2007 at 8:09AM

Sometimes you'll come across an author who is so good, you stay up all night reading the book. This is the first in a series of three books. This was made into a TV movie called "Agnes Browne". Read the book first!   posted May 16, 2007 at 1:35PM

I'm a great fan of Elizabeth Berg. I discovered her after seeing a movie called "Open House" based on one of her books. I've now read them all and can't wait for the next one to be printed. If you're a fan of the WW II era, this is an especially good book to read.   posted May 9, 2007 at 12:58PM

I'm a fan and have read all the Alan Gregory novels - this is by far my favorite!   posted May 2, 2007 at 8:08AM

You can't go wrong with any of Carl's books. The characters are people you'd want to know or NOT.   posted Apr 24, 2007 at 7:56AM

This series is hilarious. the series is called "Keeping Up Appearances". You must start at the beginning.   posted Apr 19, 2007 at 11:31AM

It's almost as if the screenwriter only read the middle of the book - what a waste of a movie. If you must see the movie, do not read the book first. You'll be SO disappointed.   posted Apr 9, 2007 at 7:39AM

It was the movie that got me to read all of Jennifer Weiner's books. She's a great writer.   posted Apr 4, 2007 at 3:15PM

If you're looking for a tear jerker, any of her books will fit the bill.   posted Apr 4, 2007 at 3:15PM

There is a sequel to Terms of Endearment.   posted Apr 4, 2007 at 3:13PM

Most people don't realize it, but there is a sequel to Beaches.   posted Apr 4, 2007 at 3:13PM

If I'd read this before I saw the movie, the movie would have been a terrible disappointment. The books (there are several) are so much better!   posted Apr 4, 2007 at 3:10PM

Sappy and predictable like most of Steel's books. I guess sometimes I'm in the mood for sappy and predictable.   posted Apr 3, 2007 at 11:11AM

I'm a great Gary Paulsen fan, but I'd have to say this is my favorite. Harris is a stitch!! You can't go wrong reading anything by Paulsen.   posted Mar 22, 2007 at 8:04AM

What a wonderful story. It was recommended by the Excelsior librarian. I loved it!   posted Mar 22, 2007 at 8:03AM

Oh my gosh, this is hilarious! If you're a fan of Buffy or Angel, you'll probably like this series. Takes place in MN   posted Mar 13, 2007 at 7:47AM

I haven't read Churchill for a while, and she's lost her appeal.   posted Mar 12, 2007 at 7:25AM

First of a series. LOL   posted Mar 8, 2007 at 7:43AM

V. funny, as Becky Bloomwood would say. You must read the entire series.   posted Mar 6, 2007 at 7:53AM

first in a fantastic series - you must read them in order   posted Mar 1, 2007 at 7:53AM

Sometimes it's the movie that gets me to read the book. such was the case with this one.   posted Feb 28, 2007 at 7:42AM

the movie was just plain awful   posted Feb 28, 2007 at 7:41AM

This is also the first book in a series.   posted Feb 23, 2007 at 7:57AM

I usually read the book before I see the movie. This was an exception. After reading this book, I'm in the process of reading all his books.   posted Feb 23, 2007 at 7:56AM

This is the first in a series of "princess" books.   posted Feb 21, 2007 at 3:52PM

You must listen to the CD book versions. Jim Dale is the greatest. I purposely look for CD books that he reads.   posted Feb 21, 2007 at 11:21AM

You must listen to the CD book version. Tim Curry is the greatest.   posted Feb 21, 2007 at 11:19AM

Being a self-professed dog disliker, I put off reading Marley and Me until I bought it for my sister. Warning: don't be around anyone who makes fun of you when you cry for the last two chapters. What a fantastic book! What a NAUGHTY dog!!   posted May 31, 2006 at 10:49AM

I enjoy this series. It's a shame Hennepin County doesn't have the entire series.   posted May 19, 2006 at 2:08PM
