What wonderful weather we are having and a question.

Cooking sausages on the barbecue; had to put my sunglasses on because of the sun.  This good weather is supposed to hold for another few days at least.  Haven't got our heating on.  Don't even have the a/c on either.  I wish it would stay like this year round; cool in the mornings, warming up through the day and then cool overnight.

Had a question for you all, has anyone read the book AND seen the movie called "The Book Thief?"  I am usually of the opinion that the book is better than the movie.  I am reading the book, and I am thinking I bet the movie would be better, even though I haven't seen the movie.

Really nice weather here in Ireland too.

I read The Book Thief but haven't see the film

I have! I loved the book. The movie was very well done but since I knew the outcome, it didn't have the same impact for me. The characters had much more detail in the book and you could really understand why they behaved as they did. In the movie, Rosa is not scary but just gruff! My friends who saw the movie first thought it was wonderful, though. Since you've read the book, you will want to see how they filmed it.

Excellent shot!

I've not seen the movie or read the book... just picked up the soundtrack, which I liked.

I have seen the movie but not read the book. I thought it was sad.
