“The Hollywood Daughter” was really enjoyable, so I‘m glad to have another Kate Alcott to read. I‘m even more glad that the day has calmed down enough to let me! 😂 #atouchofstardust #katealcott

“Honey, how can you be fearless unless you do care? I care like hell about some things, and the things I don‘t care about don‘t rank on any fear scale at all.”
Faith and religion, they‘re timeless, right? So is a baseball game. It‘s the only major sport with no time limit. No clock running out. I love that. I love the timelessness of it.
I found a list of books to read after watching A Star is Born, and these two sound most interesting. And just to be #Shallow I'm adding a picture of Bradley Cooper for good measure.

pickLove! Love! I never thought about the irony of making Gone With the Wind as Europe was preparing for another war to end a different type of brutality. Kudos Kate Alcott!
pickI liked this book! I really liked the character of Carole. I love Gone With the Wind the movie, but I‘ve never read the book! So it is going on my TBR for 2018 😉 thank you @DimeryRene for letting me borrow it!
so-soThis book had so much potential, but I was left with mixed feelings. First off, I love the time period and the supporting cast. Carole Lombard was such an interesting person and I love the parts with her and Gable. I am also a huge fan of Gone With The Wind, so setting the story during the making of the movie is awesome. What I have a problem with is the main character. I didn't dislike her but she was boring and monotone. To be continued...🔽
A bit of fun in the form of an #audiobook. Reminds me of my own Midwestern roots.
#amlistening On the set of Gone With the Wind, a young clerk finds an exciting bit of Hollywood glamor and romance.
Married movie stars Clark Gable and Carole Lombard both served their country in WWII. Tragically, she died in a plane crash while returning home after raising over $2 million in a war bond rally. After her death, he joined the Army Air Force and flew active missions to obtain film footage of aerial gunners in action. #inmemoriam #maybookshowers
pickVery good. Inspired me to read and enjoy the book Gone With The Wind as it is set during the filming of the film version. Well rounded characters and a glimpse into some more well known ones such as Clark Gable and Carole Lombard. Highly recommend especially for fans of Gone With The Wind.
so-soI was super excited for this book because I LOVE Gone with the Wind. I found parts of this story somewhat intriguing but I really didn't connect with the characters or the story. I do however need to spend an early Sunday morning with some coffee and a viewing of Gone With the Wind...it's been a while.
so-soI loved the premise of the book, and the backdrop of the filming of Gone with the Wind. Alcott's fictional characters help to illuminate the non-fictional, namely Carole Lombard and Clark Gable. Ultimately, this was not a book that commanded attention. It was okay, but lacked the stardust quality.
