We read this out loud in high school English class, and we had a lot of fun with it. Each student picked a character, and some pf us were quite passionate about it. I think I liked being the old man. It was still a trial of a murderer, so it was still dark, but it was still a good book.

This was on my #Bookspinbingo list for the month, but when I went to read it, it turns out I never got around to buying it. Fortunately, Hoopla bailed me out with an audio recording of a play production! The play is as solid as I remember it! The cast is great and I love the tension between the characters as they debate a man‘s guilt or innocence!

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! 3y
EclecticBookLover I need to check this out! I love the movie, one of my top favorite movies. Perfect cast, perfect cinematography, everything just perfect. I liked to remake too. This would be an interesting listen. 3y
JoeMo @EclecticBookLover As you‘re a fan, the audio version is definitely worth a listen…the only issue is that the knife scene doesn‘t have the same impact when it‘s audio-only…that‘s one of my all-time favorite movie scenes! I‘ll have to try the remake someday since it earned your stamp of approval. 3y
EclecticBookLover I can definitely see how the knife scene has less of an impact. I think illmake this my next listen! 3y
LiteraryinPA Wait, there‘s a remake? The original is one of my top films so I‘m intrigued! 3y

Short, impressive, and intense - that's what this text is. This play drew me more in than many other books I'm reading right now. I was stunned, I felt helpless, angry, too. And I kept asking myself, what would I do, if I was in this situation? Rose asks so many ethical questions, that are still discussed in the 21. century. I want to watch the movie now as well, of course.

Haven't played for a while. #Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

1) tagged, for the postal book club #12Littens12Books
2) I bought books for my family's Jolabokaflod

Want to play? @rockpools @Caroline2 @tricours @TrishB

TheSpineView Play or not to play, that is the question. 😂😂😂 Seriously, no worries... play when you feel like it! Thanks! 4y
rockpools Yes! My semi-functioning brain cell can just about cope with this! 4y

This was really good. I'm not really a fan of reading plays, this one was a bit harder to read because the characters are only numbered "juror one", "juror two"... But I did enjoy reading it. Although it is set in 1957 I think it is still relevant today.

On the docket for February.

Tagged is for my friend's book club (#RtC) that I read along with. Well, actually they read it last month. 🙃 I'm going to try to finish it this week, which should be pretty easy. Then it's time to live vicariously through NPH. I picked up my copy at Dollar Tree, and it's signed. 😯 Looking forward to it, could use a laugh lately.

“We have a responsibility. This is a remarkable thing about democracy. That we are notified by mail to come down to this place and decide on the guilt or innocence of a man we have not known before. We have nothing to gain or lose by our verdict. This is one of the reasons why we are strong. We should not make it a personal thing.”

Megabooks Interesting quote. 🖖🏻👍🏻 For me, I‘ve never gotten jury duty, but it would be hard not to take the experience personally. My mother sat on the jury of a child rape case before I was born, and it very much affected the way she raised me. Thank you for getting my thoughts going on this. 6y
LiterRohde @Megabooks I have jury duty next month. 6y
Megabooks @LiterRohde 😬😬 Good luck!! 6y

Swapped to a shorter audiobook because HP is just soooo long. This play was fantastic and the recording is very well done. #24in48 #readathon

An interesting discussion on the power of peer pressure and persuasion. With the exception that the jury is all male, it has held up well over the years and is still very relevant today. This was a taped performance by L.A. Theater Works. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After years of difficulty with ear buds, I finally bought some Air Pods. They‘re wonderful! And comfortable! Finally I‘ll be able to listen to books at work without pulling them out all the time. Listening to 12 Angry Men. #airpods #audioworking

Jess7 Mine are supposed to be here next week. I‘m excited to try them out too. How do they charge? How long do you think they stay charged in use vs not in use? 7y
SharonGoforth @Jess7 I just got mine this evening. I think they charge the same way as your phone. I have no idea how long they stay charged. I have a lot to learn about them! 7y
JazzFeathers I didn't know Twelve Angry Men was a book! Loved the classic movie 😍 7y
SharonGoforth @JazzFeathers I didn‘t either until I saw it on Audible! 7y

Day 22 - #awesomeaudiobooks - my most recent audiobook read is 12 Angry Men. The movie is superb, and the book is written in such a way that it comes across best via audiobook. The narrators were spot on. 4.5⭐️#marchintoreading #audiobook
