I liked your post on risk- taking, I do need to push myself out of my comfort zone when it comes to books sometimes. August: Osage County looks great, both book and movie. And what a cast for the movie! Yowzer. I want to see it now, looks really good.

I had an advance copy and high expectations. I thought it would be more speculative fiction, and it wasn’t. So yeah, expectations make a difference. Plus, I wanted more answers. Still, the writing was good and I do recommend the book.
