Weekly Obsessions


The awesome Kelly at KellyVision started posting a weekly post highlighting whatever she happened to be obsessed with that week. I LOVE this idea, so much in fact that I will be doing it myself every Saturday.

Here are my obsessions this week. Some amazing movie trailers this week!

BOOK

Cover of Diamonds In The Rough by Michelle Madow


I ended up really liking The Secret Diamond Sisters and I am very excited to get my hands on this sequel. I love the cover.  It's totally fun and captures both the scandalous and sexy qualities of the novel.

TV

Bates Motel

Three episodes away from the end of season 2 and I am HOOKED. Freddie Highmore is doing amazing things with the complexity of Norman Bates. Vera Farmiga adds layers to Norma that I didn't think would be there. The show, and the cast, are only getting better with each episode. I am both anticipating and dreading the finale. They normally have a killer twist/cliffhanger, but the wait for season three is going to be excruciating. 

OTHER

Trailer for Gone Girl 


Gone Girl is one of the top books I've read since I've started blogging. The debate over the ending aside, the twist in this book is one of the single best twists I've EVER read. Ben Affleck (whom I didn't like for Nick when he was first cast) really surprised me in the trailer. The scene where he smiles while getting his picture taken next to Amy's missing poster? That IS Nick. It's a solid trailer, and shows promise as I can already pick up a few things from the book that I hoped would make it into the movie.

Trailer for If I Stay


The second they started playing Say Something I started crying. It's beautiful, and perfect. It already has me feeling the emotions I had while reading the book. Adam's line "I'm still here and I'm crazy in love with you. Please...stay'. Ugly crying right there. I have a feeling I'll be a mess while watching this one in theatres.

What are you obsessed with this week?

I love comments. Thank you for stopping by my blog and thank you even more for leaving me a comment.

I have decided to make this an awards free blog. I appreciate the gesture, and love that you thought of my blog, however I simply can't pass them along as required.
