Introduction

There are only so many things you can do inside of prison, one of which is to escape. Stephen Kings novella about an up and coming finance banker turned prison inmate at the Shawshank state prison will take you places you probably don't wanna go. Join me this week as I discuss how one of the most famous horror writers almost didn't become a writer at all and what it takes to go toe to toe with prison bullies as I discuss the novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption and its movie adaptation.  . . .

This book gives the name mobile home an entirely new meaning. This week's episode is all about Howl's moving castle, so join me as we follow Sophie on an adventure from her small town in Market Chipping into the mysterious and eccentric castle that lies just beyond the hills. From its original publication in 1986 to the studio Ghilbi adaptation in 2004, this story creates a whole new world for the reader to explore.  . . .

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not also enjoy it right outside of an expensive jewelry store? Truman Capote's scandalous novel about the young and eccentric Holly Golightly flew off shelves when it was first published in the November 1958 issue of Esquire and was shortly thereafter made into an even more famous film starring the iconic Audrey Hepburn. This week I discuss Capote's upbringing as a country boy turned New York City socialite, why the story almost never saw store shelves, Audrey Hepburn's difficult time taking on this role and much more.  . . .

What happens when two teens who are damaged in some way join forces and develop a blossoming relationship?  Most likely, a Young Adult Novel. Jennifer Niven's New York Times bestselling novel All the Bright Places, was published in 2015 and just earlier this year was made into a movie starring  Justin Smith and Elle Fanning. This week my boyfriend and I discuss both the book and the movie so join us!  If you would like to give us any feedback, additional comments or recommendations please email us as at [email protected], thank you and enjoy.
