Blind Date Book Club

Very rare I write , about a Hallmark film, Ilike it. But in this case , this confession just well works. Sure, difficult to be different reaction about a film with books, Erin Krakow and Robert Buckley, not ignoring Glanys Davies and Faith Wright.

But the reactions - debates in book club are the basic good point of film. Sure, not exactly surprises or revelations but for a tsundoku like me, few significant beautiful moments. And the art of Robert Buckley to offer coherence of his version of a kind of Clark Kent.

In short, for not be too enthusiastic, I consider it pretty nice Hallmark . Off course, the blind book package has its contribution to this.

I would like to know who the artist is and the name of the song that played for 2min and 22 seconds toward the end of the movie. I can't find it listed in the credits some of the words that are repeated offen are"on my mind" she has a nice voice would like to get a copy of it, Hallmark was no help , in fact they were rude at my request. I am guessing that questions might not be appropriate here but worth a try. It was a very good story line. The characters were well matched. I also liked the scenes and scenery. It was a beautiful believable story. Would like to see more like this produced by this production company.

It's refreshing to see Erin Krakow in a Hallmark movie that isn't a period piece. She and Robert Buckley (of "One Tree Hill" and "Chesapeake Shores" fame) are both big Hallmark guns, and are both well cast in an original and well-written story (no tired tropes or cliches to be seen here!) set on Nantucket, but filmed - like most Hallmark movies - in British Columbia.

The chemistry between Krakow's Meg, a book store owner, and Buckley's Graham, a writer suffering from that terrible affliction of writer's block, is on point from their very first scene together. It's this chemistry that makes the movie so good.

I enjoyed this one. Hope we see more movies with Krakow and Buckley starring together.

Nantucket bookstore owner Meg (the charming Erin Krakow) is at a crossroads of sorts on whether to continue running the store, a dream of her deceased mother that has been financially supported by Meg's aunt, who is her mother's sister. Best-selling author Graham (the equally charming Robert Buckley) is also at a crossroads of sorts, yearning to stretch his talents as an author from the teen coming-of-age genre to the historical romance genre. He's, in fact, written such a romance novel under a pseudonym, but it got a lukewarm response from his agent, so he decides it's time to take a short break to regroup. Meg and Graham meet cute at the docks of Nantucket when a tourist mistakes them for a couple. Eventually, he finds his way to the bookstore and it's then that their journeys unfold separately and together.

What I like most about this movie is that it's just as much about the heroine's journey as it is about the hero's story and I found myself just as interested in their separate storylines as I was in their potential romance. The supporting cast is great and provides believable, tangible support; namely, Meg's friend and bookstore employee Alice, who has dreams of becoming an author herself; Graham's sister, who is his cheerleader just as much as he is hers; and Graham's agent, who is also his good friend. The two leads have naturally good chemistry with each other and everyone else. This one is interesting and worth the watch, in my opinion.

Meg is a bookshop owner that hosts the "Blind date with a book club", which has become popular enough to be featured on the radio. One listener, Graham, travels to Nantucket to convince Meg to put his book on the list for said club.

Big shot writer from big town travels to a small town in pursue of a bookshop and has a meet cute with the owner. Who doesn't love a cliche?

Hallmark knew what they were going when they put these two together. Erin is definitely a fan favorite who manages to have chemistry with every single one of her co-stars. Put Robert in the mix who is so very charming and you have a hit.

I really liked the movie. There were a few silly things that had me rolling my eyes, like they didn't think anyone would see his picture in the back of the book? But hey, this is still Hallmark and we like it for it.

It's true it was kind of slow at times and definitely something we have seen before but it's definitely worth the watch alone for our two leads.
