Book Review

I recently finished The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

This was a surprisingly good book. I enjoyed the twist of the narration and the authors writing style. I am usually annoyed by being able to predict what happens in a book, but the author tells the story interesting enough that telling us what is going to happen in the story is part of the enjoyment of the book. I would recommend the book to anyone interested in historical fiction.

I did finally finish "My Life In France" by Julia Child for our book club. The book was interesting but it isn't something I would have picked up on my own and I'm not even sure if it would have keep my attention all the way through if I didn't have to meet with the group to discuss it. I know who Julia Child was but had no idea how she became a world renown chief. All I can say is, now I do. It is not a page turner, but if you like autobiographical books, cooking, or France, this book is for you.
