My Obsessions....for the week anyways

The awesome Kelly at KellyVison 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.

So this week my obsessions are:

TV

Curiosity - Titanic episode

This TV show is on Discovery Channel and I happened to catch the Titanic episode. Riveting. I was fully engrossed for two hours. If you are at all interested in Titanic and it's haunting fate you should check it out. It goes nicely with Claudia Grey's Fateful.

MOVIES

My Week With Marilyn




I went to see this yesterday and I am totally in love with Michelle Williams performance. She's perfect. Fragile, sexy, haunted, yet so charming and lovely. She even nailed the way Marilyn walked. The other performances were good too, but Michelle stands out.

I am wanting to get my hands on the book now so that I can read it.

Vacation

I have this coming week off of work! Today is my last shift until Monday Dec 5! I don't have anything planned other than reading, visiting my adorable nieces, and doing so much needed reorganizing of my books. It's going to be nice to relax, and not do anything!

What are you obsessed with this week?

Things I am Obsessed With....This Week Anyways

I decided to do a new weekly blog post. 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 I will be doing it myself every Saturday (yes, I am aware it's Sunday today).

So this week my obsessions are:

BOOKS

Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare

I just finished this book the other day. I LOVE both the Mortal Instruments and Infernal Devices series and this book is Cassandra Clare's best one yet. I am so excited to talk about it when it's released!

The cover of Gilt by Katherine Longshore



Um, do you see the gorgeousness??! Seriously. Swoon. It's stunning. The synopsis takes my breath away too! I have been obsessed. So obsessed that it will become my icon sometime next week. See my WoW post for this week for more.

The UK cover of Until I Die by Amy Plum



The Die For Me cover was so pretty. This is even more stunning. I am hoping the North American cover is just as stunning and can't wait to see it.

TV

Jeremy and Anna from The Vampire Diaries


One of my favourite, if not my favourite, couples on Vampire Diaries. Anna got to visit Jeremy in this week's episode even though she died last season, and I got a little emotional. Ok, so maybe a lot emotional. They are adorable together, and I am so sad we can't keep Anna forever. Steven R McQueen and Malese Jow have amazing chemistry.


MOVIES

Character Posters for The Hunger Games movie



I am sure everyone has seen them. They are awesome. They give me hope that our beloved story will come alive on the big screen in a way that makes us happy. PEETA!! <3 The trailer for My Week With Marilyn



Michelle Williams has already given me goosebumps in this brief glimpse. Taking on an icon like Marilyn Monroe would not be easy, and Michelle totally nails it (at least in the trailer). So excited to see this one.

OTHER

Vacation

I am off for the next week from work and have been looking forward to it all week. I am going to Toronto on Nov 1 and will be there for a couple days. My friend Maria and I are going to relax, and maybe have dinner at Moroco Chocolat.
