Janet’s Book Nook

This one is one of my books to movie suggestions. I saw some trailers for the movie that was made from this book. The movie is going to star Jim Carey and it is set to release at the end of 2008. The sneak peek previews I have seen make me interested in seeing this movie. I am not a huge fan of Jim Carey but I do see where he fits perfectly with this role.

The book was written by a British writer and is a true story based on his life. After getting dumped by a girlfriend Danny Wallace decides that he hasn’t been living life to his fullest. He makes a decision to say "Yes!" to everything that is asked of him so that he can see where it takes. He ends up experiencing some of the most amazing things in life.

While this is not exactly Academy Award material I think the movie will do well. It is just the kind of physical comedy that guys like my husband love. I know he will be watch this movie several times so I have no doubt the same will hold true for hundreds of thousands of men out there.

There are several months before the movie comes out so there is still time to read the book by Wallace by the same name that was released in 2005. This seems like one of those movies that will mean more if you have read the book first and have all the background on it. Enjoy!
