Peg's 2017 All About Me Challenge

[Suzanne]

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, Peg! Many years ago I lost my husband suddenly as well. Keeping busy and surrounding myself with friends and family helped me through it. Hugs!!!

Take care of yourself.

Thank you all so much. He was truly my best friend and I am still struggling with it. Cherie, it wasn't a tooth that went from cancer. He had a toothache, and went to the dentist that referrred him for an impacted wisdom tooth. It actually was cancer in the jawbone and once they opened it up, it spread and grew like wildfire. We'll never know how long it had been growing in there, but that was the first symptom he had. I feel we just never had time to gear up for the fight.
So back on track with all my reading challenges. I love the escapes, the new learning for the mind and the great conversations and fun.

Dark Matter

Question #17 What country where you born, read a book set there or an author from there.
Born in USA, this book was set in Chicago and the author lives in Colorado.

[Sarah]

Did you enjoy Dark Matter? I really want to read that one.

[Peg]

I really did, it was only the ending that made me hesitate on another star. I just feel like it was a bit rushed, but it did stay true to the characters. To me, it had a very good flow, never pretentious, and didn't rely on some of the old standby plot tricks. When you read it, let me know what you think. It's hard for me to not give away spoilers in a review on this one.

Mexico: Stories

Question #13 What is my favorite food. I answered Mexican, although anything with some 'bite' to it, especially spicy, is what I go for.

Frankenstein

Question # 5 What is my favorite movie?
I love Young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder. The Movie is actually a far reaching adaptation of the book, but I hope it's ok that I took the liberty with it this way.

[Cherie]

I think taking liberties with our answers is what Janice had in mind, Peg. I think she always looks for the unexpected answers. :0) love the Gene Wilder movie too!
