Hi Heather, thx for letting me know about Life & Beth and that it was pretty good. It looks funny from the trailers. See what you think of Season 2.
I agree the Killers of the Flower Moon has a dark storyline — I’m just glad it was uncovered that this awful thing was happening. I think getting the story out — helps the Osage people in a way. I’m not sure you’d like the movie — it makes one angry and you feel helpless to stop it. Though some were caught at the end.
And I’m not sure what to expect with The Women … I hope it will be good. I’m on a long waiting list so who knows when I’ll get it. Cheers.

The Women looks really good. I have yet to read any of Hannah’s books. I keep hearing how good they are and I have yet to pick one up. I need to remedy that this year! Thanks for the heads up.

Life and Beth was one of my faves when it came out. I’m excited for the second season. She has great chemistry with Michael Cena.

Hi Jane, yeah I think much of Schumer’s standup comedy is too foul for me, but the trailer of her show seems a bit funny and easier to handle. I hope it’s cute. And I’m not too sure either on the Hannah novel. Will it be too goopy or will it be okay? Will it stray or will it appeal? I’m #424 at the library so it might take a while before I get to it. We’ll see. Happy February to you.

Thanks LF, yeah it seems you’d probably like The Women with that time period. How rough for the Vets like your father. My dad was a medic for those wounded who could be flown to the Army base in Hawaii. I was just 3 or 4 then. You must have moved around as a kid? I hope these books will be good. It’s good you gave up a lot of your TV services. You’re busy. I hope the rainstorms in Calif aren’t flooding your area. It’s worrisome to get so much at once. Stay safe! & happy reading.

Hi Deb, glad these posts might help. I try to keep up but not sure I really do, Lol. The Curb your Enthusiasm show has much the same kind of humor as Seinfeld so I think you’d like it. Larry David sort of plays himself as a persnickety obsessive old guy – a bit of a doofus who has similar friends. The early seasons are particularly funny.
I’m sure The Women novel will include many hardships & ups & downs as Hannah’s books usually do. See what you think. I’m curious to read it too, but I’m on the wait list for it. Have a great weekend.

I’ve never seen Curb, but I love Seinfeld, so maybe that’s something I should look for! The Women is on its way to me; we will see, I guess, if it works for me.

Thanks Sam. Yeah I think we need some laughs for February — so I hope Larry David’s show will fulfill that. I think the back earlier seasons might be even better.
The Adversary does sound like a huge sibling fight, like an epic battle. I’m a little scared to read it, lol. But it received a lot of praise from critics, so I’ll get to it. Right now I’m #105 in line on the library wait list for it. I tell you Crummey’s a big author in Canada!
Happy reading in February.

I only recently resubscribed to Max/HBO after several years, but I remember that Larry David series fondly. Just last night, I was trying to figure out where I left off it, but I’m thinking that I’ll watch this new season first because I don’t think I’ll ever remember for sure where I stopped.

Happy February!
