Sh...I just finished Maeve Binchy's newest book. She is an Irish storyteller and finished it just before she died last summer. It's called A Week in Winter, and if you like her other books then you will love this one. If you are looking for a mystery, I enjoyed John Grisham's latest "The Racketeer." It is a lot like his older legal thrillers. Last night I just started "The Art Forger" by B.A. Shapiro. I saw it on the new release shelf at the library and it got great reviews. I am just a couple of chapters into it and so far I really like it. It is going to be one of my spring break reads this week.<br /><br />I also have some spring break movies lined up. Last night Mike and I watched The Late Quartet with Christopher Walken and Philip Seymour Hoffman. It is about a quartet of musicians who are facing some major life changes, and we both loved it. This week I am going with a friend to see Quartet with Maggie Smith (directed by Dustin Hoffman). It's about how a nursing home for retired musicians wants to do a fundraiser by putting on an opera. It's supposed to be great. Do you see a theme here? Of course, I will also need to watch the DVD of Les Mis (although I am not sure Kate will let her copy out of her sight even though she already watched it twice the first day she got it).Cheryl A.noreply@blogger.com
