Book Reviews posted for The Silent Woman by Terry Lynn Thomas
I read 3️⃣ books last week:
My favorite was:
As You Wish by Cary Elwes – The ultimate behind the scenes look at a classic told from the perspective of the Man in Black. I was 14 when this movie came out and I learned the actor Cary Elwes was 24 when he made the movie. No wonder I had such a crush on him!
This was a special movie and a special cast. They couldn’t have known the success and longevity the movie would garner, but the cast all knew they were part of something magical.
I loved all the insight especially about the sword fighting and Rob Reiner and I know I will watch it again with fresh eyes.

That’s good to hear. Sunshine and Margot was good – a couple graphic sex scenes surprised me though…
