Are you the type of person who gets wary when someone gives you a recommendation? Or do you rush right in, trusting your friend to have good taste? I received A Star for Mrs. Blake on a recommendation, and while I was a little wary, I ended up liking it. Read my review to find out why!
Barbra Streisand's time as Star of the Week has come to a close, and all 12 of her reviews have been posted to her page. Here's a clue for next week's star:
Barbra Streisand played in a remake of a famous story—another remake of that movie is being released this fall. Next week’s star played Barbra’s part in an earlier version of the film. It's another easy clue! I know I give you hard ones sometimes, so I'm sure you can guess this one. Check back on Saturday to find out who it is! A toast to Barbra Streisand, our new Star of the Week! Did you guess it right? I knew you would! To start with, check out her tour-de-force clip from Funny Girl on her page, as well as reviews for the full movie and Hello, Dolly! Enjoy :) A “must-read”? I’m always wary of recommendations that claim you must read a particular book. Everyone’s different; is it really mandatory?
To be honest, no. Not everyone has to read Sean Ferrell’s Man in the Empty Suit. I completely recommend it, though, because not only is it an enjoyable, entertaining book, but it kept me thinking for weeks afterwards. Whenever I can, I whole-heartedly cram this book down the throats of everyone who will listen. So far, no one has been sorry. Shirley Booth's week has come to a close, and all 8 of her reviews have now been posted to her page. Here's a clue for next week's star:

Bring your Kleenexes for her video clip (from Come Back, Little Sheba), and check back every day for more reviews! I’ve been reading about the Wakefields and their friends, but I haven’t caught you guys up on what’s been going on at Sweet Valley University! Head on over to the series page to see my reviews for the latest volumes: The Other Woman, Deadly Attraction, and The House of Death!
Phew, that was a lot of Anthony Quinn reviews! I'm a little tired; I think I'll take it easy next time. (That was a bit of a hint.) Now that his week is over, and all 53 of his reviews are now posted to his page, here's a clue for next week's star:
Next week’s star, a costar of Anthony Quinn’s, won an Oscar for her first movie. Any guesses? Check back on Monday to find out who! |
