Collateral Beaty - Movie Review

Collateral Beauty
Movie Review
 

I am normally a terrible judge of movies.
Unless it's a movie that just can't lose, I will
usually pick the duds.
Now, this one, I win! People around me all
thought it looked awful. So I went, by myself,
on opening day.
I was so glad I did. It is wonderful. It will get
you right in the middle. I have since gotten my
husband to go with me. We both agreed, it is not
the movie you are thinking it will be.
I know, Will Smith has kind of lost his golden boy
shine. It's been a while since he did a good one.
But he hit a homerun with this one.
I highly recommend it. I am so glad I
went for it. Take some tissues and be prepared
to do some deep thinking afterward.
Only in a wonderful good happy way.

Who We Were Before by Leah Mercer

Who We Were Before
by Leah Mercer
 

This is my first time reading Leah Mercer.
While there is plenty of romance in this story,
I don't know if I would call it a romance.
Its really more of a life story. The life of
Zoe and Edward. The life of their relationship.
The life of their family. From the first minute
the two of them meet as she sits knitting
a pair of bright pink socks on a bench til
their return to that bench years later.
On their return, they now have memories
and stories. They each have so much to
learn about the other.
 
 
Even though they have been together for
years. There is so much they don't know
about each other.
Who We Were Before was written in a very
interesting way. Easy to keep up as their
lives unfold. Together.
Give it a try. It is well written. You may find
that you don't want to put it down.
 


I got the copy of Who We Were Before from
Amazon Kindle First Selections.
