Katie Chandler had always heard that New York is a weird
and wonderful place, but this small-town Texas gal had no
idea how weird until she moved there. Everywhere she goes,
she sees something worth gawking at and Katie is afraid
she’s a little too normal to make a splash in the big city.
Working for an ogre of a boss doesn’t help.
Then, seemingly out of the blue, Katie gets a job offer
from Magic, Spells, and Illusions, Inc., a company that
tricks of the trade to the magic community. For MSI,
Katie’s ordinariness is an asset. Lacking any bit of magic,
she can easily spot a fake spell, catch hidden clauses in
competitor’s contracts, and detect magically disguised
intruders. Suddenly, average Katie is very special indeed.
She quickly learns that office politics are even more
complicated when your new boss is a real ogre, and you have
a crush on the sexy, shy, ultra powerful head of the R&D
department, who is so busy fighting an evil competitor
threatening to sell black magic on the street that he seems
barely to notice Katie. Now it’s up to Katie to pull off
the impossible: save the world and–hopefully–live happily
ever after.
To kill a mockingbird with Gregory Peck was one movie I saw many years ago that was absolutely wonderful and based on a book with the same title; just a year ago I saw Twilight with my daughter also based on a book I enjoyed, then there have been the Harry Potter movies, fun to watch. I have also watched True Blood though I have not read the books. So many books have been turned into movies or tv shows and are usually quite good as far as I'm concerned (Diane Sadler 8:42pm August 19, 2009)
I love seeing a good book turned into a movie. I just saw the preview of Dear John by Nicholas Sparks. It looks as good as the book. (Mary Branham 11:25pm November 6, 2009)
