Until I realized, “What if I bring back reading at bedtime?” At bedtime, they’re all in their beds away from each other. When they were all younger, reading aloud was more successful when they had quiet activities to do as I read aloud.Īs they aged, they outgrew many of these quiet activities and once again, I was stuck. Instead of snuggling, mine always seemed to elbow each other in the eye, fight over who gets to turn the page, and constantly complain, “I can’t see.” I’ve always envied the moms who can snuggle with their kids as they read aloud by firelight. Yes, I fully understand that this is an ironic thing for “This Reading Mama” to say. Reading aloud has not always been a pretty thing in our house. **I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for me to earn fees by linking to and affiliated sites.

![]() ![]() As a consequence, I spent a large portion of my time while reading this book really trying to figure out why Hall wrote it that way. ![]() I was warned going in by multiple people (foremost, our own Emmalita) that, a) Rosaline spends a significant portion of time with The Wrong Guy, and b) He’s a royal shit-stain of a human being. If she just so happens to get involved with the smart, charming man she meets on the way to the show, well, that’s just a bonus. But this show is her chance to finally make something of herself and to gain some level of financial independence (she relies on her wealthy doctor parents quite a bit, and wishes she didn’t have to rely on them at all). Her general attitude about herself going in is that she is constantly making the wrong decision. We don’t need to see anything before that. The book actually starts on the first weekend Rosaline is set to be away from home at the baking competition, which I thought was super smart. Rosaline meant to become a doctor, but an unplanned pregnancy derailed that career choice and now she works in a shop, and bakes in her free time. Our heroine is Rosaline, a twenty-seven year old bisexual single mother of an eight year old daughter. ![]() So this is a romance set in a famous British reality baking show, very much like The Great British Bake Off. ![]() ![]() I also enjoyed the way the Lunel women interacted with their Jewish identity. Mistral, I thought the writing was evocative and the plot well-paced, as it held my attention throughout. Each woman is distinct from the other, and all are compellingly and clearly sketched. In Mistral’s Daughter, though the narrative is shaped around Mistral, the true focus is on the Lunel women, who had great impact on his personal and professional life. Three generations of the beautiful Lunel women – Maggy, Teddy, and Fauve – are united in their connections to Julien Mistral, a world-famous painter. There’s still good writing there- and I think that’s especially true when it comes to Judith Krantz. It annoys me when people dismiss them as ‘trashy,’ as though they have to make excuses for not reading Dickens or whoever all the time. You must admit they are rather addictive in their escapist nature and their pulpy plots. ![]() Every so often I go on a kick of reading those commercial romances about driven young women published in the 1980s that are sometimes called bonkbusters. ![]() |
