28 out of 100. That includes a few movies I've only seen part of, but I need to pad my numbers somehow. 😀
Three faves:
🎬 I'm not sure how anyone could classify The Karate Kid as a thriller, but I watched it so many times as a kid that I have it memorized beginning to end.
🎬 The Hustler
🎬 The Postman Always Rings Twice

Dear Litsy & #LitsyLove friends: My beautiful 94-yr-old Mom passed away on Sept. 3rd, so I haven‘t been here for awhile. Mom taught me to be an avid reader & she was always happy to attend any & all book shows & author events. Reading has been helping me thru this tough time along with all your letters, cards and prayers. Thank you for being there. I‘ve missed you! I‘ll be answering a huge pile of letters and posting again soon. Hugs to all! 🤗❤️
It's getting so close to due date I'm freaked out. It feels like it's really zipped by and at the same time is crawling at a snails pace. I just can't wait to meet Lil Miss Marialynn Esperanza Viera-Garrison 🩷👶🇵🇷
pickHumorous mystery, part of a series, set in the Art world in the Bay area. Annie Kinkaid has to find a genuine masterpiece near a cemetery and foil some schemers. OK, kind of lightweight but fun.
