Top Ten (and More) Tuesday - March Caboodle of Movies and Books

Happy Top Ten (and More) Tuesday! I'm late, with this summary, but here, you will find a list of all the movies I watched and books I finished in March.

MOVIES

Letterboxd allows for half star ratings for movies, but I'm sticking to whole instead of sliced mushrooms. The heart indicates when the movie had the "it" factor, that something special that makes it a favorite of mine. It's probably one I would re-watch. It does not have to earn five mushrooms in order to earn a heart. There could be plot holes, etc., but if it was still immensely enjoyable, it earned a heart. 

The number on the left is the date in March when I watched the movie. Most of the time, I watch half a movie in the morning while having breakfast and the second half in the afternoon while having lunch. Hallmark movies, which are mostly what I watch, are all less than 90 minutes long without commercials, so via DVR, I can easily watch one per day most days.

The only movies on this list that were not Hallmark movies were Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour and Sense and Sensibility (1995). I'm not a huge Taylor Swift fan, but I did enjoy her concert on Disney+. She's got talent and she has such a creative mind. I have not read Sense and Sensibility, but I really enjoyed the 1995 movie.

There were only two new movies on Hallmark in March - Crimes of Fashion: Killer Clutch and Shifting Gears. I really liked Crimes of Fashion: Killer Clutch. I was a little disappointed with Shifting Gears, but it was okay.

Silly me, I thought the Wedding March series on Hallmark took place in March. Not so much. Lol. I realized that after the first one that I watched. There are more in the series, but they haven't aired recently.

I had already seen Guiding Emily, but I loved it so much I watched it again (and so I could finally review it). I need to review After All These Years. That's a really good mystery from 2013.

BOOKS
I don't give hearts for books like I do for movies because I rarely re-read books. When I do, it's usually because I haven't reviewed it yet and I need to refresh my memory before I do or because it's part of a book club and I need to refresh my memory for that reason. Otherwise, there are too many books that I want to read and it would take too much time to re-read them. Also, many of them are part of a series, of which I have so much catching up to do.

Here's what I read and listened to in March. Reviews are linked to the titles. Some are full reviews, while others are brief ones on my Sunday Posts.

  1. Atomic Habits is one of those books I know I need to read, but keep putting it off because I have so much to read!

    1. The audiobook is excellent. It's narrated by the author himself. I highly recommend it. :)
