But all is not lost. In the midst of tragedy, the fires of her heart are rekindled by another. Will the possibility of true love lead Grace to relinquish her responsibilities in the house of women and embrace her own right to happiness? Click here to get the book.

This Book Sounds Awesome...Why Haven't I Read It Yet??
I just saw someone talking about The Knife of Letting Go and quickly added to my TBR! Sounds really good and I didn't realize it was going to be made into a movie! Now I definitely need to read ASAP! :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard so many good things from The Knife of Never Letting Go, both from book blogs and my friends, and I still need to read it! I looked up Charlie Kaufman and I can't say that I've seen any of his movies, so I guess I'll just have to wait until this one comes out.
ReplyDeleteAs for The Hunger Games in IMAX, I have no doubt that there's a demand, or at least there's one now. So long as it's there, there are people who will see it three, four times, or who already have.
I'm SO bloody excited that The Knife is going to be a movie. I just fell in love with this series. It's so epic!!!
ReplyDeleteAlthough I did see The Hunger Games twice, I've not seen it in IMAX.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up about the free book. :)
I've never heard of The Knife of Letting Go either, until now, that is. Sounds interesting.

Thanks for sharing. The Knife of Never Letting Go sounds like an interesting movie.
ReplyDeleteWoW! I have to get a move on The Knife of Never Letting Go!
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!!! THEIR MAKING MOVIES OF THEM !!! :D WONDERFUL BOOKS :D
ReplyDeleteI haven't personally read The Knife of Never Letting go before but from the reviews I have heard and just plain word of mouth I think it has the possibility of being a great movie. If, of course, they do it right and don't take too many liberties ( uh-hum, MADGE). As far as Hunger Games coming back for 1 week only in IMAX, it seems like it may just be a money making ploy, and I completely understand, cause it will make money. I think I am good though. Too dang expensive for a movie I have already seen!
