Books, Jdrama, etc.
I've been reading a bunch.
I have to mention 11/22/63 by Stephen King. It's one of his non-scary books and has a smidge of romance in it. I know there are people out there who strictly associate SK with horror but a lot of them don't know that he wrote The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile. So yes, he does have a sensitive side.
I had started on The Hunger Games, but I realized that I should at least watch Battle Royale because there are very similar books. After watching Battle Royale for the first time a few weeks ago (what??? I can't believe it either), I suddenly wanted to read the book. The book is a bit different in a few scenes, but I think having watched the movie first then reading the book made me appreciate the book more. I honestly think that is the order it should be watched and read in.
Now I'm reading The Locket by Stacey Jay. After that, I will read The Help since someone had recommended it to me. Twice.
Japanese drama-wise, I watched Kaseifu no Mita, which was a dark but touching drama. I started watching Zeni Geba since its a dark drama. Hope it's good...
