*What I've Watched*
I finally got around to seeing The Age of Adaline and absolutely loved it. Not only did Blake Lively and Michiel Huisman both suit their roles so well, but the story itself was...timeless and beautiful. It really makes you think about our mortality and whether we would want to live forever if we had to leave so many loved ones behind. This is a movie I'm definitely going to buy on DVD to re-watch!

The Girl At Midnight is apparently really good Eugenia, I hope you enjoy it, and All Fall Down, well, I seriously loved that myself, so I wish you al the luck! Thank you for linking me too!<3
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying it so far Amanda, and it's good to hear you loved All Fall Down :)
DeleteEnjoy The Girl at Midnight - I hope it's good!! :D Ooh I really would like to watch The Age of Adaline! I've watched Michiel Huisman in a couple of things (Game of Thrones, Orphan Black) and I really quite like him. ^_^ Thank you for the mention, too! Have a fabulous week.
ReplyDeleteMe too Kara - it looks so promising! Michiel Huisman is really good in Game of Thrones and this one - I hope you get to watch it.
DeleteOooh glad you enjoyed Adaline, I've seen the previews and it puts Blake Lively in a very different character. I hope you enjoy The Girl at Midnight too, I'm about to start mine soon!
ReplyDeleteIt really does, and she's so good for the role. The Girl At Midnight is impressive so far!
DeleteOOH YAY SAINT ANYTHING. My sister stole it from me but I'll get it back because I CAN'T WAIT to read it :D
ReplyDeleteIt looks SO GOOD Emily - here's to hoping we both love it!
DeleteI've been hearing fantastic things about Saint Anything! All Fall Down too, although I'm not sure if that book's for me. I hope you enjoy them both, Eugenia!
ReplyDeleteMe too Aimee - I hope I love it! All Fall Down has gotten *some* mixed reception, but I'm going in with an open mind and hoping for the best :)
DeleteI really want to read Girl At Midnight. It sounds wonderful! Ooh All Fall Down and Saint Anything are on my radar, I hope you enjoy them :) Age of Adaline looks lovely, so glad you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteRachel @ A Perfection Called Books
It does Rachel! Age of Adaline is definitely a good movie to watch :) Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteGah, I'm so excited for The Age of Adaline! I'm trying to get a friend to drag along so I can see it xD It sounds so good. Hope you enjoy All Fall Down and Saint Anything!
ReplyDeleteIt was FANTASTIC Alise - definitely hope you get to see it too! (just mention Michiel Huisman and I'm sure someone will want to come ;)
