Perhaps I'll get to see the movie, eventually.<br /><br />Having 4 kids, I can honestly say, I love them all, however there are vastly different things about each of them, some things are lovable and some... not so much.Ms. Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263882972749791087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-83913713047473044342012-01-10T22:18:03.976-05:002012-01-10T22:18:03.976-05:00I liked the book, but I loved the movie.

But it is a disturbing book, especially for those of us who lived through it.<br /><br />I just finished 11/22/63 and thought it was really, really good. I cared so much about the characters that the story was simply secondary. I cried when I read the reunion of Sadie and Jake out loud to my husband. Iwill read that book again... :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-30235680417480434332012-01-10T21:25:03.144-05:002012-01-10T21:25:03.144-05:00I loved the book as well, I need to see the movie....I loved the book as well, I need to see the movie.
