In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash | Jean Shepherd

Second time watching! The hubs wanted to watch it. #wintergames2020 #holidaymovie #basedonabook #teamrednosedreindeer @StayCurious

TheLibrarian This is my dad‘s least favorite movie. I normally force him to endure it every Christmas morning but decided one of his presents this year would be no A Christmas Story. 5y

BarkingMadRead @TheLibrarian this is one of three movies my husband will watch willingly lol 5y

TheLibrarian @BarkingMadRun Lucky! My husband isn‘t a fan and is probably happy he won‘t have to endure the torture this year since we aren‘t together. 5y

Skipping Christmas/Christmas with the Kranks: A Novel | John Grisham

#holidaymovie #basedonabook #watcheveryyear #wintergames2020 #teamrednosedreindeer @StayCurious

StayCurious That's a fun movie. How close would you say it is to the book? 5y

BarkingMadRead @StayCurious it‘s pretty similar, except in the book, Luther is even more of a jerk. He‘s pretty unlikeable 5y

Let It Snow: Three Holiday Stories | John Green, Maureen Johnson, Lauren Myracle

I haven't read the book, but the movie was cute and fun and just the lighthearted watch I was looking for this morning.

Librariana I ordered the book so I can read it before watching the movie 😁 Is it broken up into 3 parts like the stories? 6y

Bookworm54 5 points for #HolidayMovie, 5 points for #BookToMovie, 1 point participation :) sounds cute! 6y

TheKidUpstairs @Librariana the movie flips back and forth between the different storylines and then brings them all together at the end. I haven't read the book, so I don't know if it's the same format. 6y

Grand hotel | Vicki Baum

#GrandHotel

This novel of a grand hotel in 1920s Berlin is blurbed as a “delicious and disturbing masterpiece”. I‘m kind of hoping it gets picked for our #NYRBBookClub (if for no other reason than it will “force” me to read it). 😄

How We Sleep at Night: A Mother's Memoir | Sara Cunningham

Movie based on the tagged book. While it‘s nice that Cunningham stands in for missing moms at gay weddings, it‘s also sad that their own parents won‘t attend.
