Let’s Talk: 2015 Challenges

So I finished one of my challenges already!  It was my audiobook challenge.  This year I’ve  fallen into the world of audiobooks, which made it much easier to finish that challenge than I thought it would be. As for all my other challenges, wellllllll….. So I’m giving up on The debut Author challenge.  I haven’t read any debut …

Book to Movie Music: Soundtrack Saturday

So this soundtrack is comprised of (in my opinion) the most memorial instrumental tracks from book to movie adaptation.  There are so many adaptations out there, I only picked the ones where when I hear it I immediately connect to the story.  I would have added a track from Disney’s Three Musketeers and The Never …
