I think if I made it to a foreign country I would be tempted to stay put as well. I'll expect that postcard!<br /><br />Nan: I loved Chocolat, both the book and the movie so I may give this book a chance one day. I like her too. She's such an underrated actress but in my opinion one of the few females on Grey's Anatomy that's actually good.Ladytink_534https://www.blogger.com/profile/14317480621483829078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7441624898003891357.post-59688434205106510212011-02-20T09:44:52.594-06:002011-02-20T09:44:52.594-06:00I loved both the book and the movie, though they w...I loved both the book and the movie, though they were as different as can be. I am reminded of Chocolat - I enjoyed both but they were not very similar.

You didn't even mention a boyfriend and he was quite prominent in the book. I'd still like to see the movie because I think Diane Lane is great!bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.com
