A couple of months ago our staff created a recommendation list for books, movies, music and TV shows. Since we all lead busy lives, it is a nice resource if you are looking for something to do and haven't had time to read the entertainment section of the paper.

Some recent additions:

Movie: The Departed (Scorsese). Both Sarah Shannon and Leah Goldstein Moses enjoyed its plot and characters (not for the gore-adverse).

Book: Random Family (LeBlanc). Marian describes it as a moving portrait of a family living below the poverty line.

TV Show: Project Runway (BravoTV). The third season just ended; the fashion and competition are a stitch.

We'd love to hear your recommendations!
