Tammy's List & We're On Facebook

Hey everyone! 11 days away! One of my very good friends compiled her list of ones to watch, as well as suggestions, and I wanted to share that so you have more ideas when putting together your month of movies. Tammy watches so many movies (maybe even more than me!) and is the perfect person to share her thoughts. She is also the one who came up with the idea to start a Facebook page, so search "My Month of Movies" to join the group there for further discussion. As I've noted before, if this is your very first visit to the blog, see the first post for everything to make more sense, then enjoy reading and commenting! Peace!
