How about you? Got any fun plans for this fall? Books you want to read, movies you want to see, places you want to go?
Sounds like fun, I need to make a list!
ReplyDeleteSkye, I'm hoping it'll be fun, anyway :-)
DeleteIve never even heard of First Man and the El Royale movie. :-D (I've since googled them.) But Fantastic Beasts is on my watch list, of course. Can't wait for that!
ReplyDeleteDKoren, you have heard of El Royale, just... RC is no longer involved, so I'm kinda bummed. Guessing he was going to have the Bridges role? Sigh. Still want to see it for CH, anyway.
DeleteSooooo excited for Beasts!!!!!!
Ohhhhh! It's that one! Gotcha. I didn't put two and two together.
DeleteI think it might have gotten a new title.
DeleteYOU'RE GONNA LOVE CRAZY RICH ASIANS
ReplyDeleteThis fall, I'm planning to visit New England with my siblings! My other major goal is to make substantial progress on the rewrite for my Holocaust novel (I'll be doing NaNo in November for the first time, for that purpose.)
Oh, and I also really want to see "Bohemian Rhapsody" . . .
DeleteJessica, the truth is, I drew this list up last week and forgot to post it. I saw Crazy Rich Asians on Saturday and liked it okay.
DeleteNew England in the fall is so gorgeous!
I miiiiiiiight do some Nano myself, we'll see. Tossing around a couple ideas for short stories.
I can't decide if I want to see Bohemian Rhapsody or if I would hate it.
Ahhhh, gotcha ;-) I'm glad you enjoyed it, at least!
DeleteI really really want to see Bohemian Rhapsody. I just hope it's GOOD. If they don't do him justice I will cry & throw things at the screen.
Jessica, yeah, it was fun! Not a waste of time, by any means. Just didn't love it. But I can't love every movie -- that would be silly.
DeleteI really don't know much about Queen, though I know lots of their music. So I kind of want to see BR just to learn things. I will probably wait to hear what YOU think of it before I see it.
Definitely! And I'm sure I will have lots and lots and lots of thoughts! *grins*
DeleteSounds like fun, I always like your lists. I might try one, but I'm not the best list follower.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Livia! Lists are really helpful for me, but I know they aren't for everyone :-)
DeleteBy the end of spring I aim to have graduated school and get my driver's license! EEEKK. :P
ReplyDeleteGabby, wow! That's exciting!!!
DeleteWhy not try to make the noodles while you guys are at our house? We MIGHT be able to get some thick noodles somewhere???
ReplyDeleteMom, we could! We're going to try them this weekend too, and if they're a success, we'll totally make them at your house.
DeleteGreat list! Do you know what Classics Club books you'll be tackling yet?
ReplyDeleteFirst Man and Fantastic Beasts are sooo on my list for this fall, as are Life Itself and A Star is Born. Fall movie season is my favorite time of the year. <3 Hoping to tackle a few books off my TBR list, but as school is back in session, that might be a pipe dream. ;-)
Claire, I'm hoping to read Treasure Island (Robert Louis Stevenson), The Lady in the Lake (Raymond Chandler), and Johnny Tremain (Esther Forbes). We shall see!
DeleteSummer movie season tends to be my favorite, partly because I have a lot of time to go to the movies, and partly because I do really love superheroes and fun frolics :-)
Sounds great! Best of luck, my dear! <3
