The subject matter is dark.  It is set in London after a terrorist attack during a soccer game in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kristin Hannah is becoming one of my favorite authors.  I really loved Firefly Lane.  Comfort and Joy was cute.  True Colors did not disappoint in the slightest.  One thing I admire about Ms. Hanna is that she will take on serious issues and that nobody is safe from death or tragedy.
True Colors is the story [...]]]></description>

Honestly, I didn&#8217;t pay much attention to the story line on the back of the book.  I read the first line &#8220;Anna O&#8217;Shea has failed at marriage, shed her job at a law [...]]]></description>

The premise is that Andy, the little boy in the previous films, is going to college.   He has to decide what [...]]]></description>

However, the movie exceeded my expectations and I really liked the movie.
Simple plot:  Post-apocalyptic America.  Denzel Washington is the lead as Eli.  Eli has a King James Bible in his possession that he reads every night on his [...]]]></description>

The simple storyline is about a father, Dominic, and his son, Daniel, and their friend Ketchum.  One night, Daniel mistakes the local town&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
