I'm joining up with Lena and several other ladies in the weekly Tuesday 10 themed posts. This week's theme is Favorite Movies. Choosing a favorite (or 10) of anything is hard for me, so I narrowed it down to movies that I can easily watch over and over and still love....

One Day By David Nicholls I picked this up because I started seeing advertisements for the movie, and I generally like to read the book a movie is based off of before seeing the movie itself. After finishing this, though, I don't think I'll be running out to see the...
