Excited to use my downtime in the hospital physical therapy rehab to catch up with my reading.  FINALLY I finished The Maze Runner 1&2, so we can watch the movie.

 I've been overly eager to read Gone Girl.  Excited to see what the film has to offer. Plus I have a whole other device a friend dropped off to keep my mind entertained with reading. 

Then onto The Martian. Of course my uncle wants to watch this. ..... and if course that nerdy female version of Sheldon from theThe Big Bang Theory while watching the movie.  It will be twice as bad since I'm have read the book.

 I'm just on a reading marathon....Any near and future movies based off of books anyone wants to recommend? 

Irma Prunesquallor, described by Mervyn Peake at the beginning of the second book of the Gormenghast series.

i had to stop reading and laugh. How perfectly delightful! This quote illustrates how well Fiona Shaw captured the character of man-hungry Prunesquallor.

The character photo on the PBS page looks like the embodiment of this quote!

(Some may recognize this song from the movie "The Secret of NIMH."  The original novelization was "Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, but the movie also had a direct novelization as well.  I've read both.)
