Who doesn't like to read? And if you don't, well poo on you. Here are a couple of my latest faves.
The Secret Diary of a Princess, by Melanie Clegg. I am a big fan of Melanie's blog, Madame Guillotine, and I finally succumbed to the occassional posting of "buy my stupid book". What a treat! As the title suggests, it is the secret diary of a princess, the princess being a young Marie Antoinette. It's a nice little peek into what her life was like as a young girl in Austria. I was loathe to put the book down when I had to leave and couldn't wait to get home to continue reading it. That's a good thing. Another sign that it's a good read; I thought it ended too soon. Be sure to check it out. Also be sure to check out Madame Guillotine http://madameguillotine.org.uk/ , it's a fun blog for history buffs, Ripperologists, and gin drinkers. To start.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. Never read this classic? You need to. While the Disney movie is cute, the book is better. Duh.
I've re-discovered Absolutely Fabulous. How could I forget Patsy and Eddy? This show is so wrong, but it's so right. I have to admit, Eddy is the type of mother I will be. Everybody needs a little AbFab in their life, laughter is good for you. : )
Thanks so much, you lovely thing! xx
ReplyDeleteYes, everyone should buy my stupid book so I can go to Paris and write even more ridiculous books about STUFF. :)
I agree!
