Life is so Good: George Dawson and Richard Glaubman

 ****
Really good read - big take home points - don't worry and be content. I'll let you discover the rest for yourself :)

The Princess Bride: S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure - William Goldman

**
Totally enjoyable light reading - mostly pretty close to the book accept omissions which were immediately understandable. A few interesting background tidbits are discovered that would definitely be of interest to a fan (and bring extra dimension to a few characters) but mostly the additional material was mediocre to just plan bad. The story outside the story (which is much more expansive in the book than movie) could have been skipped altogether in my opinion.
