Trifecta

This weekend's challenge: Retell your favorite book in 33 words. 

With all due respect to the marvelous William Goldman:
 
S. Morgenstern writes of a humble farm boy who becomes a famous, yet dread, pirate. But in reality, he’s a hero who lives for justice, camaraderie, adventure, and his one true love, Buttercup.

  1. I couldn't help myself! I had to comment immediately about one of my true favorites as well (both book and movie). The PB. Didn't want to give too much away if others were guessing.

    I have only recently watched this movie, and hung my head for all the times that I missed it :)

    Ooh. It's Pelican Brief, huh?

    Okay. I'm only kidding. I can't even keep a straight face as I type that. Love that movie. It's been years since I've seen it. Perhaps time to view again. :)

    I haven't read the book or seen the movie. It sounds interesting, though.

  12. I just reread the book last year. It had been fifteen years. Too long. It's so much fun.
