Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Strangely enough during my recovery I have spent more time reading than watching movies, oh and of course I was glued to this message board much of the time. I did go out to the movies twice though which is the most I've been to the cinema in the last 2 years. Books I recommend: Brick Lane (set in present day London talks about the trials and tribulations of being an immigrant from Bangladesh and growing up in a post 9/11 world) The Big Love (an original version of what it's like dating and finding THE ONE in today's world) The Dark Queen (set in Renaissance France during de Medici's time, features bad witches, wise women, witchunters and many potions) Sara > Aside from getting the perfect pillows and cases of ensure or boost, ya gotta > have something else to do!

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 How about Harry Potter books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Fawlty Towers is one of my favourite series, along with A Year in Provence. Liked the Harry Potter books too (and the movies), although I never finished them until recently. Now I'm anxious for the new release! > Aside from getting the perfect pillows and cases of ensure or boost, ya gotta > have something else to do!

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Oooooh Fawlty Towers and a Year in Provence are also part of my compilation of favourites:-) And I can't believe we have to wait until November to see the latest Harry Potter movie. I'm also really excited about the new movie based on Nambia's The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. It used to be one of my favourites as a child. One of my dear friends bought me the book on CD to listen to during my recovery post-op. One of the best presents ever.
