But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you."
So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!"
And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.
Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me."

by Julie Klassen - Emma Smallwood and her widowed father are invited to live in a clifftop manor in Cornwall so that Mr Smallwood can be private tutor to the younger brothers of two of his former boarding school students. Their welcome is strained and strange, and it's not long before Emma notices mysterious happenings like someone sneaking into her room at night. Unlike the over-imaginative Catherine (in Austen's Northanger Abbey) however, Emma is practical and organized, and refuses to allow fear to get the better of her. Emma must also determine whether both or either of the older sons can be trusted. The oldest, Henry, teased and tormented her when he was her father's student; while Philip was kind and generous. Emma worries that one of them may to blame for the pranks played on her, and wonders at her own feelings about and for them. And is it possible that one of the brothers is especially drawn to her?
by Cary Elwes - Having recently read Goldman's book The Princess Bride, I thought it fitting to read Elwes's memoir about the making of the movie. This book was a delight from start to finish. Cary Elwes shares stories both humorous and poignant about the experience, from his reaction to hearing that he was being considered for the part of Westley, through the final day of filming. He gives glimpses into the personalities of the other actors, and his affection and admiration for the entire cast and crew is evident throughout. Director Rob Reiner, Assistant Director Andy Scheinman, author William Goldman, and many of the actors contributed some of their own thoughts and memories, which are included in sidebars throughout the book.
