Rick-Founder JM CM BOOK CLUB ’s comments from the THE JAMES MASON COMMUNITY BOOK CLUB group.

I am reading by Robin Cook It is actually very good. I was worried as his last book was horrific with no ending and a despicable leading character

I happily welcome all of our fantastic new members!!!

Just bought Wolf of Wall Street bluray. Interesting film to say the least!

I love that there is a new Godzilla remake. Always fun to see what the newest technology will so to enhance our beloved characters

I really enjoyed that film. The acting was superb. I loved that most of the leading roles were not "Hollywood" stars but rather just great actors.

In answer to you -- Sarcasm doesn't always translate well online or on the page.

Obviously, you're a bit of a smart-aleck, like a few folk I knew back in school. Hardee-har-har...

Lets keep it friendly. Or just block each other. Aaron. KOMET is a very respected longtime member and far from rude. A great contributer. Please respect each other. Or ignore each other

. Still reading the very facinating techno thriller set in 2056. Alot of medical and tech jargon but the author does a great job making it accessible to the general reader. The ideas and advances proposed in this book do not seem that far fetched anymore. Humans having computer implants that allow for virtual internal "GPS and data communication" interface

Curious if it lives up to you expectations Aaron!!

I have got to read that! Recently bought the old Paul Muni film The Life of Emil Zola which focuses on the Dreyfus Affair.

Apologize for not commenting recently. But I do read all the posts and just love the links. So do impressed by the incredible variety and level
Of talent of our member writers. Thanks for all the great posts

I really enjoyed the President's Vampire series. A fun and witty series

I LOVE Discworld!! And there is a new one that recently was published!!

Just started . What promised to be a brilliant futuristic (2053) high tech AI thriller. Odd. All the advancements in technology in novel doesn't seem so far fetched anymore!!

I just finished ... Brilliant tech thriller. And the lead character is superb. Very much in same vein as the great Mitch Rapp who was created by the irreplaceable Vince Flynn. Lets hope the nest book in series is a good!!!

Have never read . Looks like a great read!!! Have not read anything by kami yet

I just watched the 1953 film with Robert Wagner. Just a fun old Hollywood costume film and a great, yet underused James Mason

I love the film. Alas. Never read the book..yet

I am currently reading . I am facinated by exploration and Drake and this is a stunning book
