House of Cards
House of Cards | Michael Dobbs
13 posts | 10 read | 15 to read
The acclaimed political thriller that first introduced the unforgettable Francis Urquhart MP and launched Michael Dobbs' No 1 bestselling career - now reissued in a new cover.Michael Dobbs' entertaining tale of skulduggery and intrigue within the Palace of Westminster has been a huge hit with the public. Its scheming hero, Chief Whip Francis Urquhart, who uses fair means and foul to become Prime Minister, is one of the best-known characters of the last decade - the politician we all love to hate.Acclaimed for its authenticity and insights into a secret world - the result of many years working behind the scenes for the Conservative Party - it became a highly popular, award-winning BBC TV series, with Francis Urquhart memorably portrayed by Ian Richardson, and was followed by two further sequels, 'To Play the King' and 'The Final Cut', which also became top-rating TV series.

Command hooks, string, and some #jb cards. I think I'm going to do a second, smaller row below this one. Will be rotating some of the cards I get. Wanted a cute way to display these cards.

Lovesbooks87 Such an awesome idea! 6y

Wednesday night = dinner and cards at my parents. I'm not winning.

CoverToCoverGirl What game are you playing.. lol 7y
CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl it's progressive rummy. Every hand is different. My grandma loved this game and hooked us all on it when she was still alive 7y
CoverToCoverGirl @CocoReads How lovely.. It's memories like that, that keep the loved ones who have passed from us still so connected to us. 7y

So I finished season 5 and then my boyfriend (who has never watched) decides to start watching from season 1. So what do I do? I happily rewatch all episodes because this show is amazing! #bingeable

eanderson Love House of Cards! My husband and I are going back through all the season before we start the newest one. 8y
mjdowens I am so addicted! I binge watch when a new season comes out and go back and watch it again. 8y
Suet624 Was it good the second time around? 8y

TheBookStacker @eanderson I love this show! @mjdowens that's a good idea! @Suet624 it's fun watching with him because I know what's going to happen and I like seeing his reactions. We are almost done with season 1. 8y
Suet624 I remember so clearly the first show of the 2nd season. 8y
mjdowens @Suet624 I was on my treadmill during that episode and damn near fell off! 8y

I love great stories in any form. As much as I love to read, I adore great television and films. Kevin Spacey is an all time fave and this show is off the charts. The writing is phenomenal and the acting as well. #bingewatching #greattv

LauraBeth I'm counting down the days! 8y
SheReadsAndWrites I'm only on season 2 but I'm watching every night. 😬 @LauraBeth 8y

Throughout this election cycle, I've had regular conversations with a client who's voting for the candidate that I'm not. We debate and disagree. And I keep telling him that he must watch this show on Netflix. I loved it and am looking forward to the book. I'm waiting until the madness dies down though. #dontboovote #Imwithher #photoadaynov16 #politicalfiction
