I read recently on Nicole Kidman's and Reese Witherspoon's f.b. pages that they are filming season two of Big Little Lies! Some interesting scenarios that might be expanded: 1) Jane and the coffee barrister, whom the girls thought was gay, but is not. 2) Madeline (Reese W.) Had an affair with the performing arts guy, so that's an possibility. She kept telling her husband that he was first in her life, but he knew he really wasn't, but Madeline has issues with her ex-husband who's together with the yoga instructor, on top of the affair she had too. 3) There is also the outcome of Ziggy, Jane's son, and being blamed for what the twin sons of Nicole Kidman's character did to Ziggy (bullying by parents kids and school staff). There's a LOT that could happen in season two, for sure.

Of course, the screenplay and role development to expand the series might build upon the already known facts about Nicole Kidman's character: she was an attorney with specialized knowledge and took up the special case representation for her friend Madeline (Reese W.) Because certain wealthy acolytes in town were opposed to her theatrical troupes play (concerning sensitive subject matter). I can see the screenwriter's developing her character, in post-aftermath, by opening up her own law practice and I can also visualize the miniseries expanding the plot surround her twin son's and their behavioral issues as well as the co-mingling subject of Jane's son Ziggy being blamed for their behaviors and subsequent bullying by children or school staff. But, I don't see your idea about Nicole Kidman's character in the Moriarty book, either. I guess we will find out next fall, when season 2 of Big Little Lies premiers on HBO!

Unbelievable: My Front-Row Seat to the Craziest Campaign in American History
by Katy Tur I got this book about a week ago and I've picked it up and put it down a couple times. Last night I began to read it in earnest and am finally enjoying it. |

Roanoke solving the mystery of England's lost colony by Lee miller
Just starting a book that sounds rather interesting. It's called Roanoke solving the mystery of England's lost colony by Lee miller
I got interested this topic as a fan of American Horror Story. One of the seasons was based around this true event, though ahs was not a true depiction of what happened. Personally I had never heard about this peice of history, but it grabbed my imagination and curiosity. I will let you know how it goes. Last edited by jools66; 12-12-2017 at 03:13 PM.

My latest read is from a book gifted to me, titled .....
The House Girl by Tara Conklin. Synopsis from the back cover of the book about the story and the author: "Lisa Sparrow is an ambitious young lawyer working on an historic class action suit seeking reparations for the decedent's of American slaves. Josephine is a seventeen year old house slave who tends to the mistress of a Virginia farm, an aspiring artist named Lu Anne Bell. Alternating between antebellum Virginia and modern-day New York. The House Girl is an searing tale of art, history, love, and secrets that intertwines the stories of two remarkable women," -- Marie Claire. Tara Conklin has worked as an litigator in the New York and London offices of a corporate law firm but now devotes time to writing fiction. Conklin received a B.A. in History from Yale University, a JD from New York University School of Law, and an Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy from the Fletcher School at Tufts University. Born in St Croix, Conklin grew up in Massachusetts and now lives with her family in Seattle, Washington. The House Girl is Conklin's first novel.

For school I'm reading Frederick Douglass' memoir, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass an American Slave.
It's a very good read. Douglass' writing is beautifully descriptive. I'm sure that this will cause some difficulty in reading as I go on, but I've only just started reading it thus far. For my own self, I'm reading a collection of short stories by Flannery O'Connor. Another excellent writer. I enjoy it very much so far. I also picked up a book on statistics but every time I open it I feel sleepy. Something about math makes my eyes just want to close.
