My Weekend Cooking post was a book I finished this week: Book Review: Nutrition Map, a terrific friendly book about eating healthily.
General Winston’s Daughter by Sharon Shinn is a fun Young Adult novel — quite different in tone and subject matter from the last one I read by the same author: Book Review: Gateway. I’ll write more about it later this week.
I am ready for Friday night’s book chat (Come and Join Our Read Along) about Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford. The book was a great glimpse into a time and place that I wasn’t familiar with. I’m looking forward to our discussion.
I started Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown about the same time as General Winston’s Daughter. I’ve been reading Weird Sisters on the days I feel good and General Winston’s Daughter, an easier book since it’s for teens, on the days that the tree pollens are out and about.
My food book this week is a fun one: Zingerman’s Guide to Good Eating: How to Choose the Best Bread, Cheeses, Olive Oil, Pasta, Chocolate, and Much More, a book I learned about from Rikki’s Teleidoscope, Weekend cooking: Zingerman’s guide to good eating and she learned about it from Caite of a lovely shore breeze, Weekend Cooking…Zingerman’s Guide To Good Eating [45]. So, it’s making the rounds of Weekend Cooking. I hope to have it finished in time to write about it this weekend, too.
What’s next? Well, I’m not sure that I will finish anything this week. But, if I do, the next book will probably be Stay a Little Longer by Dorothy Garlock. I think I will want something gentle.
I haven’t heard of these ones!
Happy reading,
Jules
Interesting group of books. I read The Weird Sisters last year and had sort of mixed emotions about it, but mostly enjoyed it. Hope you have a great week of reading!
I loved the Weird Sisters and can’t wait to see what you think. (I know some people were mixed). I’m trying to finish the Corner of Bitter and Sweet but don’t know if I’ll be done in time.
I adored The Weird Sisters and I hope you do as well. Enjoy your books and have a fabulous week. My Monday: http://www.rundpinne.com/2011/04/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-35.html
Hotel On The Corner Of Bitter and Sweet was so wonderful!!! My book club read it last year and it won our read of the year.
I’m so glad you are joining the conversation on Hotel. I just finished it yesterday so I’m really psyched to talk about it.
