Mary Anne and Wanda

Overlapping storylines all happening on New Year’s Eve! Directed by our fave director, the one and only Garry Marshall, New Year’s Eve is packed with a huge list of famous actors and actresses. Although neither of us rated this movie very highly (can you believe Allie didn’t like a Garry Marshall movie??), it’s not a bad option to play in the background around the holiday. Let us know which character you liked the most!

Eleanor and Timby spend the day looking for Joe because he’s not where he says he is. Panic ensues and Eleanor’s scatterbrained way of thinking causes her to make decisions that are questionable. Definitely read the book over listening to the audiobook on this one! Let us know what you thought of this book!

A Christmas time favorite! We both appreciated Kate Winslet’s character the most. Let us know if you would do a home exchange with a stranger! Andie would with limitations…Allie would not haha.

Allie and Andie take a dive into Southern Lady Code by Helen Ellis! We started out learning how to be the best guest at a dinner party and when it is appropriate to write a thank you note. Helen Ellis writes in true southern style with a hilarious southern accent. We hope you enjoyed these short stories!

Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan are the perfect mother/daughter duo in this hilarious early 2000s movie. You would only rate it 1 out of 5 fortune cookies if your name is Stacey Hinkhouse! So many funny scenes and quotes throughout the film! Let us know what you rate this movie!

So good!! The twists were unexpected though Allie’s guess about who was responsible for the murders was mostly right. Willingham’s debut novel is a must read! Definitely let us know how you liked it!

We had mixed feelings on this documentary. Beautiful photos and videos but questionable ethics regarding interaction with the octopus and other marine life. If you have seen it, let us know how you felt about it!

We are rounding out our short story series by Val McDermid this week with another good one! Kelly Jane quickly goes from Christmas Hero to Santa Claus Killer…or are things not really as they seem?? We hope you enjoyed our 4 stories by Val McDermid! Let us know which one you liked best!

Emma Stone and Emma Thompson both knock it out of the park with their performances in Cruella. We both enjoyed the villain’s back story, even if it wasn’t necessary to be told. Let us know which costume was your favorite from the movie!

Happy almost birthday Stanley Tucci! Stanley Tucci takes readers through his childhood and adult life while reminiscing on his favorite meals as a kid and detailing his current favorite dishes. If you enjoy Tucci’s movies, this book is a must read! Also, Stanley if you’re reading this… feel free to send us samples of your new cookware line. We will happily review it.
