"Book - The Fortunes of Indigo Skye by Deb Caletti
Movie - Sleepy Hallow/Sweeney Todd/Memoirs of a Geisha (the book is excellent too!)" "A good chick flick if you're in the mood... "10 Things I Hate About You" It's got a young Heath Ledger in it 
And a great book and quick read is "Writing Magic" by Gail Carson Levine" "Any vintage Nancy Drew book by Carolyn Keene. Don't buy the $5.00 copy, buy the applewoodbooks copy. The applewoodbooks copy is the unedited version of the early Nancy Drew book before the stories were updated in the early 60s. " "The Twelve Little Cakes is a great book. By Dominika Dery" "I love the movie "The Shawshank Redemption"! " "Book: not sure who wrote it but the name of the book is TamLin - it is a modern telling of the Fairy Queen and her favorite "boy slave" TamLin from Irish legend." "Movie: The Adventures of the Barron Von Munchousen - if you like Monty Python ,then you'll love this hard to find movie, funny and great entertainment that the whole family can watch." "If you haven't read Douglas Adam's "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", then you need to read that NOW!" "The first edition of book "Lord of the Rings- The fellowship of the ring" is worth reading. I suggest you to watch that movie too. " "Two books by Melanie Rawn...
The Ruins of Ambrai - fantasy meets politics, in truly believable universe.
The Golden Key - about a fascinating anti-hero who uses magical painting techniques to attain immortality." "If you are looking for a philosophical feel good book check out The Celestine Prophecy. Entertaining story as well as inspiring." "I was watching Anne of Green Gables last night. A nostalgic piece full of laughter and tears! " "I've just got back from my hols and i read three good books. The Lovely Bones by Alice sebold, The Jane Austen bookclub by Karen Joy Fowler and The Time Travellers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger." "The Bell Jar written by Sylvia Plath is my favorite book. This author hides her entire real life in my symbols throughout the book. The unabridged version of her journal is also pretty good." "Currently re-reading The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde. I love the whole Thursday Next series, check them out, they are hilarious!" "Movie:"Session 9" a very creepy horror movie. Not for you if you judge horror by the thrills and blood, but a slow, creepy movie that gets under your skin. Book: "Swan Song" by Robert R. McCammon. End-of-the-world greatness." "Book - Dragon Tears by Dean Koontz was an interesting read, not a light one, but very good. Also 1984 by George Orwell is a classic." "Movie- The Boondock Saints - artistically done, original, good music, and one of my favorites. Also if you get a chance to watch the original Shall We Dance or My Sassy Girl, do so!" "The Stephanie Plum Books by Janet Evanovich. They are a RIOT! About a female bounty hunter in Jersey. Stephanine does her best, but seems to always leave dead bodies, burned buildings, and bad hair-does all over the town of Trenton. " "I think John Grisham's 'A Painted House' is a wonderful read. Filled with excellent description, this novel portrays life on a cotton farm as seen by a 7yr old. Woven with humor and suspense, this book delivers. " "Another great book is by Margaret Atwood entitled, The Blind Assassin. Also if you like her work The Handmaid's Tale is great too! Great movies are all over the place, but The Girl with the Pearl Earring is one of the best I've ever seen..." "In Love and War is a really good movie too along with Miss Congeniality. A Book I absolutely love is "The Giver" by Louis Lowry. Lowry is an incredible writer. Read all of her works!" "Three movies, two of them musicals! A Walk to Remember is a great tearjerker. Chicago with Zellweger, Zeta-Jones, and Gere is excellent along with Cats the musical. All great!" "MOVIE-The day after tomorrow. I just saw it, it's great! BOOK-White Oleander by Janet Fitch. A lot better than the movie." "Book: James Clavells Shogun. Great story about japan in the past.
Movie: Moulin Rouge. I thought the way it was written with the play on songs was fabulous. Also has a very good cast. :)" "just watched Kill Bill vols 1&2. Both amazing films, Quentin Tarantino is that rare thing in this age, a talented film maker who makes movies because he loves them, not for the money!" "Have just seen Starsky and Hutch, stupid but funny!" "The book I am reading called Map of the World is incredibly beautiful writing...also try Goat for a great reading adventure!!"

Go see it, whether you are a Christian or not!" "Fave books at the mo is the scarlet pimpernell series, I know it's old but it's got everything, from humour to action!"

Also, GOOD family friendly movies: Ever After, Princess Bride, and I adore Finding Nemo." "For those of you who like Romantic Comedies..Bridget Jones's Diary is a good one to check out...for those of you who HATE romantic comedies (such as myself) a great movie to see is Village of the Damned (the old version) " "A great movie that I just watched was Chocolat...some great actors in it! Another great book I just read was Tender at the bone by Rachel Riechl all about the similarities between food and life!" "Books: Any thing in Laurell Hamilton Anita Blake series. You can't put these books down. " "A great new movie is Lost in Translation..I was sad they didnt win more Oscars" "Anything by Stephen King, especially "Carrie"." "Another great book is The Life of Pi and any Dan Brown book (Da Vinci Code Author)" "Movie: Shrek and Robin Hood: Men in Tights.~*~Book: Ella Enchanted, The Outlaws of Sherwood, & The Dealing with Dragons Series. " "I am the biggest fan of Pat Conroy and John Steinback. Grapes of Wrath and The Water is Wide are two must reads! " " I have heard that the movie Donny Darko (sp?) is a great! I have never seen it myself but it would be a good one to see " "Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell is a fantastic book, much better than the film." " I'll add another movie. Clifford starring Martin Short is guaranteed to make you laugh! (This is NOT the big red dog lol) " "It's all about Terry Pratchett, the world's funniest fantasy writer. " "Hmm...if you're a Christian, the Left Behind series are interesting too" " Sherlock Holmes is the best character in the world! Get one of his mysteries!
