I recently finished reading Tara Road by Maeve Binchy. This book was a very good book.
I give it 5 out 5 stars.
I will give you a short review. This book tells the story of a girl who grows to a woman and her struggles, or her naivety, along the way.
I really do not like to read reviews on books, because I like to be surprised as I am reading them. I want the "wow, didn't see that coming" as I read. Last year, my handsome husband bought me my Nook. I discovered blogs that rated books they had read with either stars or shoes. I would look for the ratings and not read the reviews. I would read why they gave the book that rating and then judge for myself if I felt that was a good enough reason not to buy the book and read it. Unless, of course, the cover of the book looked too interesting not to read. Yes, I am a book cover judge.
Today I am posting to tell you of a book read with Book-alicious Mama.
+Jennifer Smeth is hosting a read and discuss party on her channel here. We will be reading the book The Monuments Men by Robert M. Edsel.
Here is a copy of the schedule she has posted:
Remember we’ll discuss here and also on Twitter using the hashtag #monumentsmen to discuss it on Twitter. Tweet your thoughts on the book or quotes that jump out to you.
