Summer Reading Challenge 2015

It's summer! 

 Beaches, pools and river activities are not complete without a good book. Come on, you can't swim non-stop. Besides, what can be more relaxing than your toes in the sand, a drink at your side and the latest (insert your fave author here) novel in your hands? 


Last year I was a little too ambitious with my summer reading goals. This year I'm going to be a little more realistic.

 I have already started John Cleese's "So, Anyway...". So far it is as witty and entertaining as he is in movies and comedy skits. 



Once I'm finished with this book I will be moving on to Sophia Loren's, "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow My Life", sent to me from a dear friend across the Pond.

I simply adore, Sophia Loren! Thank you, Ian!!! Muah!


Time permitting, I will end my summer reading with Stephen King's "Mr. Mercedes" and "Finders Keepers". 



I will do my best to follow up with a book review after finishing each one. I will also try to reduce the amount of spoiler alerts! Haha

I am thick skinned but some are not and I want to make sure people feel comfortable voicing their opinion. Also, this is my blog, if you don't like what I post or are offended, leave. Pretty simple.

Salut!

What is more 80s than INXS?  The sexy frontman, Michael Hutchence, taken from us all too soon. Instead of boring you with my memory of this group and their "kick" ass songs, I'll let you all just enjoy the vision that is INXS. What is your fave?

Can we take a moment and revel in the brilliance that is 80s music videos? Okay, back to the topic at hand, The Cars. They rolled out hit after hit and we kept wanting more. Ric Ocasek walked on water and we didn't question it. Record Store Day!

B ~ Beetlejuice

Before Winona Ryder hit the Stranger Things scene and Alec Baldwin finding his muse in Donald Trump, they were rocking Harry Belafonte in Tim Burton's, Beetlejuice. Oh, Gena Davis was there too. Beetlejuice was released in 1988 and became an instant hit - launching its own animated series. And, there are rumors of a remake or sequel sometime in the future. Make it happen, Hollywood! If you didn't have a fascination with death, you did after watching this movie. Okay, I did/do. I even have my own copy of the handbook so I'm prepared. Yet, I am still hesitant in saying Beetlejuice 3xs. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice... nah. You first. Are you a fan? Tell me your favorite scene/s in the comments below. See you tomorrow for "C"
