Is there a kitten in "The Forgotten Book Club" by Kate Storey?
I saw the United States version of #TheForgottenBookClub has a different cover than the United Kingdom version. I can't wait to listen to the audiobook. Thank you @lisatimoneywrites.bsky.social. #BookSky 📚💙

Excellent! Thank you.

Congratulations @jenniegauthor.bsky.social! I can't wait for "The List of Suspicious Things" by Jennie Godfrey to be released in North America. I look forward to pre-ordering an audiobook copy 📘🎧💙

B&N I was thrilled to receive in the mail yesterday the hardcover 'A More Perfect Party: The Night Shirley Chisholm and Diahann Carroll Reshaped Politics' by Juanita Tolliver @juanitatolliver.bsky.social. The book's release date was Tuesday, January 14, 2025. It's a fun lit(erary) start to 2025 📘📖💙.

Excited to see Morris Chestnut in CBS' Watson premiering on 01/26/2025. Fan of Chestnut ever since The Best Man Holiday (2013). His lip sync performance of Johnny Gill to New Edition's 'Can You Stand the Rain' was memorable. Also, I'm thrilled to see Rochelle Aytes in Watson. Loved her in CBS' SWAT.

Thanks Brandon Davis & Marina Tucker for describing some differences between The Wizard of Oz(1939) & Wicked(2024). I recently seen Wicked, now re-watching The Wizard of Oz w/ focus on Wicked Witch of the West. Interesting that Margaret Hamilton wasn't 1st choice for 1939's Wicked Witch of the West.

Thank you for writing about Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor talent. I've seen her in projects such as King Richard, NCIS: LA, & When They See Us. The characters she portrayed had a relentless strength to protect her family & face the adversity that threatened to bring them down. Can't wait to see #NickelBoys.

Excited about award buzz I've been reading & seeing from some film enthusiast about #NickelBoys (dir. RaMell Ross) & Ethan Herisse. It reminds me of award buzz Herisse received w/ miniseries When They See Us (dir. Ava DuVernay). Love Herisse's choice to play socially & politically active characters.

Saw Aaron Pierre in Disney Plus' Genius:MLK/X. His performance as Malcolm X & Kelvin Harrison Jr performance as Martin Luther King Jr was captivating. Want to watch Pierre voice Mufasa & Harrison voice Taka in Mufasa:The Lion King. Loved that Pierre attended Disney bootcamp to strengthen his singing

You piqued my interest in 1978's Superman (dir. Richard Donner) w/ comparisons to 1940's His Girl Friday (dir. Howard Hawks). Clark Kent as Walter Burns, Lois Lane as Hildy Johnson, & the Daily Planet as the Morning Post. I look forward to watching the fast-talking, energetic newspaper environment 📰

Admired Ethan Herisse's work in When They See Us (dir. Ava DuVernay). Like Nickel Boys (dir. RaMell Ross), in WTSU Herisse faces a miscarriage of justice. Also, in WTSU Herisse & Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor are family (son & mother). Eager to see Ellis-Taylor & Herisse play grandmother & grandson in NB.

Lovely interview w/ Alan Titchmarsh. Nice learning about how Agatha Christie felt about the 4 Miss Marple films starring Margaret Rutherford. Based on your conversation it does seem Christie predicted Joan Hickson would play Miss Marple. I also hope there will be a new Miss Marple TV series out soon

Insightful chat btwn Brandon Davis & Emmett J. Stanton. Learned from Stanton that Another Thin Man was "based on 1 of Dashiell Hammett's The Continental Op stories." Appreciated hearing about Afro-Cuban dancers René & Estela (headliners of Havana-Madrid Cocktail Lounge) in The West Indies Club scene

Reading goal is linked w/ listening to podcasts hosted by authors/book reviewers. Podcasters introduced me to audiobooks added to my 2025 reading goal. Thank u for your work: @aduralde.bsky.social @markaldridge.info @kcarterjackson.bsky.social @pastpunditry.bsky.social @quickbookreviews.bsky.social

Insightful! Love link btwn RaMell Ross' Nickel Boys & 3 films. TIL about Jacques Lacan's Mirror Stage Theory in film. Mirror Stage in Rouben Mamoulian's opening sequence of Dr Jekyl & Mr Hyde, Robert Montgomery's Lady in the Lake & NB. Plus like quotation from Stanley Kramer's The Defiant Ones in NB
