    I didn’t know they were making The Woman in the Window into a film but seeing that Amy Adams is in it I have high hopes! I typically enjoy her roles and while i haven’t read the book it sounds like one that will translate nicely to film. We are watching The Dublin Murders right now which is the first two Dublin Murder Squad books by Tana French and are enjoying it.

    LOCKE AND KEY! I cannot wait. I’m curious about The Woman in the Window too, though I haven’t read the book. I haven’t read The Outsider either but that also looks good – too bad I don’t have HBO.

    Oh these all sound really good! I love Stephen King adaptations. I think one of my goals for the new year is to read more of his books. I’ve only read two so far… and I am so embarrassed to admit that ha ha!
