Contest Craze: Mini Challenge (2)


It is time for another contest craze question from Princess Bookie hosted by Forever Young (Adult).
All you have to do is post the five best books you read in the last year.  




Movie Review: Red Riding Hood

Yesterday, I drug my husband to the movies to see Red Riding Hood. I haven't read the book yet. It is still on my wish list. At first I was a little worried. The movie started kind of fast and the dialogue was a little shallow and predictable. However, it got better especially once the priest arrived in town, that's when things really got good. Overall, it was a good movie with quite the twist. I thought I knew who the wolf was in the beginning but I was wrong.


I have a question though for those who have seen the movie. However, I don't want to give the movie away for those who haven't. So if you have seen the movie (or read the book), you know who the wolf is. If you were Valerie, what would you have done in the end? Just answer kill or change. Me and my husband were discussing this as we left the theater. He said he wouldn't have killed, he would have changed. I don't know. Given the circumstances I probably would have changed too.

Aywhoo, during the movie there were a few technical difficulties with the sound. It only lasted a little while and it didn't really take from the movie. We could still understand what they were saying, the dialogue was just lower than the background music and side effects. Nevertheless, as we were leaving the theather, management gave us all free tickets to another movie! Yay! The hubs wants to go see Rango. I'm not really feeling it (even though Johnny Depp is my absolute favorite actor) but he did sit through Red Riding Hood and I Am Number Four with me. So I guess I will be going to see Rango!

Who are You the Boy/Girl, instead of You the Blogger?

I am NaKesha the girl. Thirty-one years old with a 10 year old stepson I'm raising along with the hubster. I work in higher education while trying to get my Master's in Psychology. This is all just to pay bills until my true dream comes true of opening a Tea House/Holistic Center and publishing several best selling novels. Ah, the dream. I have one fluffy tail kitty girl and hopefully some other munchkins in the future. I have an obsessive personality. I tend to get stuck on one thing until it bores me then I move on and obsess over something else. Hence, the blog name. Wait, this is supposed to be about me, not the blog. Scratch that last part.

"If I gave you $80 and sent you into a bookshop right now, what would be in your basket when you finally staggered to the till?

OMG. $80! That is so much higher than my usual book budget. Where do I begin? Mwahhahahaaa. *She rubs her hands together maniacally.

Ok, I'm going to pretend that I'm paying full price for books (which I rarely do, used bookstores = <3 ) or I will have a list a mile long.


I've been wanting this boxset, but when I have $40 in my hand in a bookstore I'm usually all over the place. I can't just focus one series.



I've been wanting these two books for the longest.



Because now I need something light and fluffy.

This was fun! It was like virtual window shopping. Did you Follow or Hop?
