It's Friday linkup time! I'm linking up with the Book Blogger Hop hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer, Book Beginnings of Fridays hosted by Rose City Reader, and the Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice.
This Week's Book Blogger Hop Question:
Do you read everyday? If so do you have a "page goal"?
My Answer:
Yes, I read every day even if I'm really exhausted I read a page or two before going to sleep. I don't really have a page goal for ebooks but I always try to shoot for at least 50 pages with print books.
My Beginning:
As a little girl, while other children played house, I played restaurant.
My Thoughts:
I love that food is such a presence in her life even from a young age. I can't even imagine knowing what I wanted to do that early on.
The 56:
It's 8:00 a.m. and we're wandering through the Saxe-Breteuil market in the Seventh arrondissement, one of the city's largest outdoor markets. The Eiffel Tower looms at the end of the stalls, presiding over the the market like a guardian.
My Thoughts:
I love how she sets the scene. I can just picture it all!
So what do you think? Keep reading?
Interesting book titles. I'm not sure I'd keep reading but I don't read memoirs often. I try to read every day but I don't have a page count. I read until I fall asleep on the couch or until I force myself to go to bed.
ReplyDeleteI want to read this book, too!
ReplyDeleteThat is great you read every day. I usually do not.
ReplyDeleteHappy Hopping!!

I read everyday too. No matter what. I think I would love this book!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely keep reading - this sounds good and i'm adding it to my list. Here's my Friday post
ReplyDeleteI like the idea that the child's play turns into something real and big. Great title! Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this book! great choice.
ReplyDeleteThese books are new to me but do sound interesting. I'm numbers 13 & 14 on Freda's linky, come see my Friday 56s. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI like the cover and title but think I would like to know more.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with the title for this one, I'm pretty sure there is multiple meanings behind it as well.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Great book title and lovely descriptive writing. I am super fussy about memoirs I read so I am not sure this would work for me. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the cover and title. Sounds like a great foodie read!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
Sounded like a mystery at first and then I noticed it was a foodie book. Bummer....lol. :) I am sure you will enjoy this but not something I would read. :)
ReplyDeleteI usually try to read every day as well. It helps keep me on schedule with my books and helps to relax me. Hope you have a great week!

I read everyday too but I never even thought of having a page count goal. It doesn't really bother me how much or how little progress I make with my book, it's just my time out.
ReplyDeleteI read every day whenever I'm sitting down and not otherwise occupied! I am not convinced on this book, but just because I have so many backed up that I want to read. It would probably sit for a long while.
ReplyDeleteI've heard of her other books, but this is a new one to me. Very descriptive and awesome title!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Music Monday and Friday 56 (With Book Beginnings).
I try to read every day too, although I am not always successful. :-( It's rare though that I don't. I loved the opening line of the book you shared. I just finished a book where one of the characters used to play Catholic Mass instead of house. :-)
