Have you read book and seen the movie?"
No, I haven't yet. It is on my TBR (to be read) and TBW (to be watched). Currently, I am reading a true crime book that I cannot put down.

OMG! Let me know what you think about I'll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara. I read that when it was released and I loved it. I really don't see a true crime book surpassing this one, in my opinion. It was such a great book.
