I feel good about my participation in this Readathon- has kept me focused. It is challenging to read these days during the week when I am working.
pickFinished the last book of the current #LMPBC round and my first cozy. It was an easy read, predictable (in a good way), and very enjoyable. I loved guessing (accurately) what would happen next. If this is what cozies are like, I will read more. Only one thing that I didn‘t like-The title really had no connection with the story. 3/5 🍄s
pick3.5 ⭐️ I didn‘t realize this was a cozy mystery until quite a bit into it lol. It is a fast read. The writing is smooth, enjoyable and I was actually surprised how quickly it read it.
A young girl from an aristocratic background falls on hard times and by pure chance (and some lying) becomes a cook for the queen of England. There‘s lots of cooking, mentions of class (superiors / inferiors lol) and of course a mystery. #LMPBC #GROUPJ #ROUND10
pickYay! I finished it! This is my selection for #LMPBC Round 10 Group J - historical fiction. It‘s also my #DoubleSpin for November! I chose this book because I really like Rhys Bowen and my son is a chef, and it‘s about Queen Victoria‘s kitchen. Would the relationship between the Queen and the MC, Bella/Helen really be possible? Hmmm... #feastmode #NovelNovember and #24B4Monday What an end to November! And I have 1 more to add!
pickThis just worked for me👩🍳I loved the time (Victorian London) and the setting ( Palace of Queen Victoria & French Rivera ) and the narration was impeccable 🎧🇬🇧Bella, once a young aristocrat finds her fortunes reversed and is placed into servitude. She comes by a position in the Queen‘s Kitchen by trickery. The attention to detail was wonderful & I enjoyed reading all the delicious food dishes described. Good fun, perhaps far-fetched
#SappyCindyStrikesAgain 😜 I‘m really enjoying this audiobook 🎧❤️A young girl finds employment as Queen Victoria‘s pastry chef. The food descriptions are fabulous and the side romance is delightful. #popsummer20 #BodyofWater
