I&#8217;m not sure why, but it seemed like a waste of time (not sure what my reasoning was since I&#8217;m an avid movie watcher, which could also be deemed a waste of time), but I just realized this week that I&#8217;ve fallen in love with fiction again. I&#8217;ve been reading Koontz and Danielle Steele, although Steele&#8217;s books are all the same in my opinion. Then again, so far so is Koontz&#8217;s. He is fascinated with murder. But his novels are much more interesting than Steele&#8217;s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week&#8217;s Friday Five &#8230; 1.
