Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo

Trigger Warning by Neil Gaiman

 

[KevinAK]

One of my favorite novels. The most interesting character, in my view, is Marius’s grandfather, who is always left out of the movie adaptations. All the ones I’ve seen, anyway.

Marius grandfather was used in a 1970’s version of Les Miserables with Anthony Perkins as Javert.

He was also briefly seen in the film version of the musical

I’m currently reading Dean Koontz’s Frankenstein: Prodigal Son by Dean Koontz and Kevin J. Anderson. It’s a very different read than the Odd Thomas books!

Good different or bad different?

Just finished:
Romano Guardini’s “Learning the Virtues that Lead You to God”

I don’t know how to put it into words other than this is a wonderfully profound book that goes right to the heart of our relationship with God and others.
If I had to keep just 3 books, this would be one of them.

Currently;
Redemptoris Mater JP2

It’s getting to be Christmas which means:

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

I’ve loved watching the Lord of the Rings movies around Christmas time. So I usually read The Hobbit beforehand. I’m trying to convince my oldest to read it (he started once but had to move on to something else for school) and then he and I can watch the movies together.
