Mother's day is just around the corner, and mothers all over Australia already have high expectations as to what they want to do on Sunday 8th May, 2011. They want to have breakfast in bed; to get lots of presents; and to be able to curl up and watch a good movie and/or read a good book.
Now if you get the feeling that you are going to be demanded to play courier, between Hurstville LMG and your mother, for these books and movies, but are not sure of what you will get her... then never fear because Hurstville LMG is here!
Once again I sweet talked the LMG staff into giving me a few ideas as to what they think mothers would like to see/watch for Mother's Day, and I have narrowed the list down to the top ten ideas for you!
First of all is
Bridget Jones' Diary. We have the novel, audio book and movie all available at Hurstville Library.
Second is
Pride and Prejudice. This classic novel is loved by women everywhere, and we currently hold the novel, audio book, movie and BBC series version at Penshurst and Hurstville Libraries.
Third are books by
Lisa Kleypas who is a wonderful romance author. Some of her books are available at Penshurst and the rest at Hurstville Library.
Eat Pray Love by
Elizabeth Gilbert, was the fourth recommendation given. The novel and DVD are available at Penshurst and Hurstville Libraries.
The fifth suggestion was the author
James Patterson, an incredible Crime/Thriller author. His books are available in various languages as well as on
Overdrive, at Penshurst and Hurstville Libraries.
The sixth suggestion was another author,
John Grisham. His novels are available in many languages, as well as on
Overdrive and in audio books format, at Penshurst and Hurstville Libraries.
