I just found out that one of my favorite books from last year’s reading, Peace Like a River by Leif Enger is being made into a movie. It will star Billy Bob Thornton, as the dad I assume, and it’s being filmed in Calgary, Canada this fall. So far, so good, but those Hollywood types had better not mess up a book that I liked so well that I added it to my list of 100 Best Fiction Titles Ever.

Oh, I always get scared when they make a movie of a book I love as much as I love this one!
Mixed emotions!
Loved the book.
Actually think that BBT might do a surprisingly sympathetic job in the role. (I know he’s odd, but I think the man can ACT!) Oh, but I hope they don’t mess this one up!
