Welcome Internet!

Sixer: Hello World, and welcome to Sock and Spoons.

Bevity: The.

Sixer: Yes, the Socks and Spoons.

Bevity: Brigade.

Sixer: Whatever. Anyway, welcome to our humble outpouring of . . .

Bevity: Geniusness. And, can we explain that this is a book blog?

Sixer: Yes, I was just getting to that. Our plan is to read a book a month - and watch a gazilion movies - and then review them.

Bevity: Here's a real introduction: Welcome Internet! These are the fabulous and spectacularly intelligent musings of Bevity and Sixer on various novels and films of interest. We will be reading and reviewing monthly for at least until we get bored.

Sixer: Or realize we're boring. So, do you want to intorduce our first victim, or shall I?

Bevity: You've already read it, so you do it.

Sixer: Oh, I wasn't really going to admit to that. But oh well, fine. We chose January's book based on Bevity's recommendation, since the movie is - apparently - briliant.

Bevity: Chritopher Nolan never fails to amaze. Christopher Nolan is Pixar for grownups. He's the writer-director of Inception, Batman Begins, Dark Knight . . . .

Sixer: Geek. Moving on. After years of ripping apart movies which failed to live up to the books they were based on, we might have actually found one that improves upon its source material. I don't know, I've only just read the book and haven't actually watched the movie yet. But I'm really hoping the movie is better. Really, really, really, hoping.

Bevity: I guess we'll just have to see. I just want to clarify that not all the movies we review will be based on the book of the month. Also not all posts will be based in logic or have anything to do with what we've just said.
