Blind Date Book Club

I was really wanting to like this movie, but I just couldn't concentrate. Erin Krakow is such a pretty girl, but her hair was just so disruptive. The short hair just doesn't work. I know nothing about women's hair, but her hair in this movie just bothered me through the entire movie. It just needed to be longer - even if just to the shoulders. Things were just out of balance. The fact that I was thinking about it through the entire movie tells me it was wrong. I just had to mention it because I hope this will be a consideration in future movies. This is just one guys opinion.

I think I am going to have to watch the movie again to try to focus on the actual story.

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.

Meg and Graham have a great chemistry.

Very interesting concept a " blind date, book club."

Purchase a book without knowing what the book is, and then show up in person at a later date to discuss your perceptions of the book.

In addition, participate in some theme of the book. For instance, a book concerning wine tasting would include wine tasting during the discussion, or a book concerning Flower arranging, would include Flower arranging during the discussion of the book.

The owner of the bookstore, the aunt of the main character, needs to liquidate her ownership of the bookstore. This puts the leading character in a quandary. Does she purchase her aunts bookstore, or does she go back to selling real estate?

The parallel plot is the male lead who has successfully written seven young adult books, and must produce an eighth on a specific timeline, but wants to write in a different genre. His new product is under a pseudonym, and is not being well accepted.

Very cute dialogue great acting good directing great writing..

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.

I enjoyed the blind date with a book concept being added to this Hallmark romance starring When Calls The Heart's Erin Krakow and Robert Buckley from iZombie. I really like Robert Buckley, he seems so genuine in every role I have seen him play. He plays famous YA fantasy writer Graham Sterling. He owes his publisher book at of his famous YA series, only instead he has written a historical romance novel which his publisher not only doesn't want, but doesn't want his name even associated with. Determined to try this new genre, Graham self publishes his romance under a pseudonym and when he hears a public radio interview of a Nantucket bookstore owner who has combined her self cultivated "blind date with a book" books with a book club, he hightails it to Nantucket where he hopes to get her to choose his book for some honest and unbiased criticism.

This is a sweet slow build romance that highlights how people's love for books brings them together. I loved the concept and who could say no to Robert Buckley's sensational smile and charm? I wish there were more book clubs like this because I would absolutely join and I really like highlighting the importance of small independent bookstores for introducing smaller and lesser know authors...and just bringing people together over their love of books. This is a strong recommendation to fellow romantics, particularly book lovers and want to be writers. Positive, inspirational and romantic.
