Angels & Demons: Two-Disc Extended Edition
DVD Talk (Free subscription) | yesterday
Recommended The Film: Ron Howard's ultra-successful adaptation of The Da Vinci Code took Dan Brown's exhilarating novel and, somehow, managed to only filter out a watchable, stiff mystery that dodges the whimsy and fun of its page-a-minute inspiration. So, naturally, both excitement and reservation could be felt when the announcement came that Ron Howard and his writers would return for an adaptation...

I lay a puzzle as I backtrack to earlier times
Periscope Depth (Free subscription) | yesterday
Truly great art makes me want to make art myself. Knowing me for the conceited bastard I am, you’d think the opposite: that I’d be inspired by Dan Brown novels or Oliver Stone movies or Nickelback songs to create my own rebuttals, showing them up. But bad art just depresses me. Good [...]

The Christian Science Monitor On Sarah Palin Book
CAFFEINATED POLITICS (Free subscription) | yesterday
There are just so many catty ways to write about Sarah Palin’s book that I find myself reading lots of the news articles to find them. They are not hard to locate. I am not sure if the The Christian Science Monitor meant it to ’sound’ the way it reads, but I think this article is a [...]

TeleRead: Bring the E-Books Home (Free subscription) | 23/11/2009
This is old news to e-bookers aware of the rise of the e-book-capable iPhone, the Kindle and the forthcoming avalanche of new models such as the Nook. But it’s new news in the sense that Gardner Research is so influential in executive suites. Gartner predicts “an e-reader mania” in the 2010 holiday season. Smartly, [...]

Angel Time
The Curt Jester (Free subscription) | 23/11/2009
In a novel where the plot involves an assassin and an Angel you might think you ran across a typical Dan Brown style plot. A lesser novelist might make hash of such a plot, but this is not that case with Angel Time: The Songs of the Seraphim the new novel by Anne Rice. Since her return to the Catholic faith she has written two life of Jesus novels and her spiritual biography and her new novel also...

Junk Shelf
Amanda Auchter (Free subscription) | 22/11/2009
Sometime I miss the harried routine of grad school, which when I say (write) it out loud, you'll think I'm crazy: reading 5 books a month, writing (on average) 6 poems and 2 annotations. I felt so productive, so in tune with things. Then came graduation, teaching, the end of the bubble. I'm a scatterbrained reader right now. What's on my shelf? A ridiculous hodgepodge that I'll pick up depending on...
