I enjoyed this imagining of the early life of Julia Child. I could definitely have imagined that Julia experienced these things. I really liked the development and blossoming of Paul and Julia‘s relationship. It did take me a bit to get into but once it picked up I enjoyed it.

3.5 ⭐️

A co-worker gifted this book to me yesterday. I admire Corrie Ten Boom‘s courage to survive & forgive. Her love for Jesus has inspired me since childhood. Starbucks holiday drinks were released today ~ my favorite Caramel Brûlée Latte made with oat milk in my personal cup. #LitsyLoveBingo

Bailedbailed

I wanted to like this, I realllllllllly wanted to like this, but I just couldn‘t muster up the enthusiasm to keep going. I made it to page 91 before calling it quits. I hope if you have it on your TBR, you give it a shot, maybe I bailed too soon? Idk if my comment below is a true spoiler, but better safe than sorry. It actually might help you if you‘re on the fence #HailTheBail

Aims42 I wish there was more said about her time before going to India. It was literally like, “No, you can‘t go. Okay, you can go” and BOOM she‘s on the ship there. Give me more on her training!! 😩 2w

Bookwormjillk I bailed on this one too. 2w
Aims42 @Bookwormjillk 😮‍💨😅 I‘m relieved to hear that! After deciding to bail I went to Goodreads and all the 1, 2 and 3 star reviews summed up my thoughts so I thought I made the right decision. It‘s such a shame, the premise sounded sooo good!! 2w
Bookwormjillk @Aims42 yes, I had been looking for a book about this for years and I was so excited to finally find one. But then 😴😴😴 2w
Aims42 @Bookwormjillk Yup, exactly! Snoozeville 💯 2w

My score is 11/100 and none of them stands out as a particular favorite. Yes, I‘m counting that I watched The Longest Day when I was eight years old, even though I slept through most of it. Perhaps I‘ll revisit it now that I understand the subject matter more! #TLT

dabbe I say if you were in front of the movie, it counts! 😂 Thanks for playing and sharing! 🧡🖤🧡 1mo

This nonfiction book, which depicts daily life in a small Italian village during WWII, is quiet but moving. And important.
