Ask Marshall Thornton discussion

I don't know if Marshall Thornton is a great cooker and can share his best receipts. I am not against such kind of thread. But I know for sure, that he has a good taste in books and maybe he'd like to share it with us.

I'm starting right now MY FIRST book of Joseph Hansen. And please, make it be good!. I put aside at least 10 books and need right now a really really good fiction, otherwise I'll run amok. Cheers!

Wait, what? Food recipes?

a lot of writers do it in their groups! :) Are you interesting in something like this? What is about the recipes of Mrs. Harker?;)

That might be cool. I hadn't thought of that. Good idea, Lena! Maybe we could all eat pickle soup or something. I had a Polish neighbor who made that and it was surprisingly good. No idea if it was polish - oh wait! I'm confusing Nick's family & Mrs Harker! Where is she from?

Also, didn't Nick eat a fancy Brie sandwich at one point? Not that I can eat it, but man, that sounds gooooood!

She is a Czech; )! Yuo"ll read soon about it. You are bu the re-read of the 5th book, right? She wanted to go back to Prague but Nick prevented this, because Harker wanted it.

We should ask Marshall, he must have had some real recipes on mind as he wrote it!

Ok, right. I'm listening to Murder Book, but SOME PEOPLE keep INTERRUPTING ME. Actually, I'm going to switch to reading it. I read faster than I listen.

Strange but true, I'm reading also faster than listening to!

Did a search for Czech food. Pierogies come up. LOVE THEM. Anything involving a potato I really love.

Hi guys! Just want to say that I'm half Polish, quarter Czech, and quarter Hungarian... They all don't have great food (to my taste) but their cakes are to die for!!!

You have to post some recipes of the foods out of Boystown, Alona! :)

And I didn't mean food recipes here in the first place! :-P I meant the authors and books he can recommend!:)

Okay, I totally misunderstood then. If you wan to add books to the bookshelf, I added a shelf called "what to read after Boystown." It's the books Thornton rec'd and some of his five star reads.

I was thinking about a fun book I read a couple of years ago, Remembrance of Things I Forgot by Bob Smith. You guys might like it.

“It’s safe to say your relationship is in trouble if the only way you can imagine solving your problems is by borrowing a time machine.”

Sounds like a good one. :D

Thanks for the rec Marshall :D

I just did an interview with Edge on the Net. Take a peak if you have a moment.

"Boystown 7: Blood Lines"!!!! *dies with want*

And a Pinkerton agent? Very much looking forward to that!

Like the Pinkerton idea interesting!

Boystown - hooked already - any future reads will just feed the addiction :D

Have you noticed the new series that was mentioned? ;))

I think we all can't wait for that! Or we can but we'd rather not. But we will. Yup.;))

The Pinkerton one yes :D

Boystown as HBO series, that will be cool!..

Boystown ..."

That would be cool, if they did that. Especially HBO, they don't hold NOTHING back. ;) Some other network made the Donald Strachey series into a show. So it could be done!

Have you seen them Rosa?

I have so many series to watch, and have not done it yet! Have you seen any mm-series already?

Sofia wrote: "Have you seen them Rosa?"

No, I haven't. Oh, actually they're made for TV movies, not a series. I just looked it up. They have them on netflix though.

Lena♥Ribka wrote: "I have so many series to watch, and have not done it yet! Have you seen any mm-series already?"

TV series? Just Queer as Folk, etc. Oh and then 6 Feet Under is really good, but it's not "MM."

HBO's "Looking" is really good, too. Marshall Thornton mentioned "The Normal Heart" movie in that interview. Have you guys seen it? If not, I recommend it, great movie.

I googled it after I came across the title! I have never heard about it, of course I have to see it.

I've never heard of Looking! I'd like to see this episode: Patrick goes on a date with Richie but Patrick, having wrongly assumed that Richie is uncut, comes off as too promiscuous and makes a bad impression. I don't think that ever happened on an episode on Sex and the City. Niiiice.

I really enjoyed Looking. A lot of people had trouble with it since it has a slow build but I thought that was interesting. It's by the guy who did the movie Weekend - which is also really great.

We don't have it in Germany yet. I had to google again! :(

I heard that, about people finding Looking too slow, but I really liked getting to know the characters. My favorite episode was the one where Patrick and Richie go on an all day date and it's just them the whole episode talking and getting to know each other. I'm really looking forward to the next season.

I've never seen Weekend but they have it Netflix so I can remedy that real soon. :)

Thank jesus for Netflix. What was life like before it?

Rosa, really wrote: "Thank jesus for Netflix. What was life like before it? ."

It was horrible. That's what it was. Having to actually get dressed and head out to the video store-simply horrible!

busy listing all the recs :D

I have never seen any gay series before! I hope it'll change very soon! :)

It's like having flashbacks to Nam. Except, perhaps, slightly less serious. And Weekend is on streaming! It's even more lazier!

I loved Queer as Folk when it was on.....that was a few years ago originally

I haven't seen Looking but will look for it

Otila, how does Patrick assuming Richie is uncut make him seem slutty? Looking isn't on Netflix yet, and now the possibilities are playing endlessly in my head. I need help.

I loved QAF too. Both the American and the British version.

There's a show on Netflix called DTLA, haven't watched it but it looks good.

Rosa, really wrote: "Otila, how does Patrick assuming Richie is uncut make him seem slutty? Looking isn't on Netflix yet, and now the possibilities are playing endlessly in my head. I need help. ."

Patrick's friends are teasing him about going out with Richie, cuz they figure since Richie is Mexican he's probably uncut and Patrick's never been with anyone uncut before. Patrick is this really awkward and kinda naive guy always saying the wrong thing so when they're about to have sex Patrick starts babbling about Richie probably being uncut and makes it seem like that's the only reason he wanted to go out with him.

Ah...I feel much better. Thank you. :) Poor buddy! Sounds exactly like something I would do.

We have a paid TV and even there we don't have yet any gay series ;(
I'm so eager to see one of them, hope it will be more in the future!

A lot of people didn't like Patrick's character but I did. He's endearing. He says and does all the wrong things but it's not because he's a bad guy. I really liked this show and I want you guys to watch it so we can talk about it! The season didn't end that long ago though and I don't know how long it takes to come out on DVD :(

Amazon has it up for preorder but no release date. Also there's a movie called Free Fall on netflix. It's GFY with COPS!! And a pregnant girlfriend. :P But cops! GFY! Also, it's a German movie, Lena!
