I have to admit, I’ve researched a lot while reading Dan Brown. Oooh, The Sanitorium was a really good book. The sequel, The Retreat, is really good, too, if you haven’t read it yet.

Creative and fun though this topic is, I couldn’t think of a time I searched something because of a book. But that tends to be me in life too; I just don’t tend to search things even if I do have a conversation about something specific or am curious about something! 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my website today.

I did struggle because I don’t do it often 😂
Sometimes I just have to know the answer. IMDB is a constant source for me because I will watch something on TV and be like where have I seen you before 🤣
That’s ok 😊
