[Trisha]

Just got about as far as I'm going to with My Life in France. It's about Julie Childs living in France and getting her inspiration and her cooking education before she wrother cook book.
I just could not seem to get into the book. I thought it was boring.

[Trisha]

1491 was some heavy reading. Off to something lighter, just started "Whose Body?" from Chapter 4

[Trisha]

Whose body? was an okay audio book. I think I should have gone with paper on that one.

On to I Capture the Castle!

[Trisha]

I Capure the Castle was a great little story about a girl coming of age.

Now, on to Study in Scarlet. Gotta love Sherlock!

[Trisha]

still waiting for Sherlock, but managed to read (among others) True Grit. a very good book, indeed!

[Trisha]

I was surprised to see that I had read two books I hadn't added to the list yet. The Monk was an interesting gothic tale that has somewhat stood the test of time. I enjoyed it.
The Haunting of Hill House, I thought, was very good.I really enjoyed the "turn of the screw" feel of the tale. I also found the older movie enjoyable as well ~ but the newer movie based on the book wasn't very well done, IMHO.

[Trisha]

I took a little break and read book for another list. Now I'm back reading another one or two for here.

[Trisha]

Just finished Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants only to realize it's not on this list?! Wow, anyhow, also read Dragonsong.
