Hi Naomi, yeah I keep waiting for the sailboat movie called The Mercy to come out with Colin Firth. It was first scheduled for Thanksgiving and now it might be March. The Voyage for Madmen was quite an adventurous survival tale, packed with a lot of sailing info too.

Hi Catherine: Oh The Party was a lively one. I’d be interested to see what you think of it. You remind me : I still need to see Lady Bird. Soon.

I want to see Billboards, bu first, am planning on seeing Lady Bird next week.

Hi Katie, thanks for stopping by. Yeah I’m a sucker too for adventurous survival tales and this one fit the bill. It has a lot of background information in it too but it didn’t get too slow for me. I learned quite a bit about the sailing routes & geography, and sea. Enjoy, if you get a chance. Cheers.

Thanks Sarah, yeah Frances McDormand is worth seeing in this movie. Quite a powerful performance. I think a book a week works well for me too. Cheers.

Hi Laurel, I think you’d like The Party and perhaps Three Billboards though a bit harsh. I was a bit impressed by Alafair Burke, she puts out some entertaining crime mysteries. Enjoy your week.

I’ve also read three books (so far) in a series that Alafair Burke co-wrote with Mary Higgins Clark (the Under Suspicion novels).

The Party sounds like a book I would enjoy.

I want to see Three Billboards…I love anything Frances McDormand does…but any time I’ve planned to go, something gets in the way!

Thanks for sharing…and for visiting my blog.
