Six of us enjoyed the movie version of
Girl on the Train tonight at the Clarkstown Mall, Bow Tie Cinemas. The movie was definitely scary and mostly adhered to the book. I loved the new setting chosen - it did not take place in England, but just across the Hudson in Ardsley and Irvington! At the end there was even a beautiful shot of Perkins Tower atop Bear Mountain. We missed all of you who couldn't make it - especially Yvette, who chose the
Girl on the Train book.
Mary Velez joined us for dinner at Blu Fig, across the street from
Bow Tie Cinemas. We toasted my favorite bully, Maria Pages! She told us
the story of how she commandeered seats that were reserved for someone
else when the book club went to see
The Help! It was lots of fun to get together and enjoy each others' company. Till next time-- Nov. 14, for Yvette's choice,
House Rules, by Jodi Picoult.

Hi Bookworms,
ReplyDeleteTonight was definitely so much fun! Sorry I couldn't make the movie, but so glad I made it to dinner. We did toast to Maria's "bad ass" skills (LOL)on taking back reserved seats during our outing to see "The Help"And it made me remember when Maria Rego had elderly woman pass a cup of popcorn to me because I was sitting by myself in a corner. We also toasted to Robin's quick recovery. She showed us a picture of her bike accident. We all couldn't believe how amazing she looks so much better. Looking forward to seeing you all in November.
Be Blessed!!
Mary
