Just nu: Kate Jacobs
Just nu läser jag boken livets aviga och räta av Kate Jacobs. Det är en mysig chicklit bok i en stickaffär. Det som är skönt med den här boken är att den inte berättar om chicklit stereotypen som bara ska ha märkeskläder och som ska upp på karriärstegen inom modebranshen. Här har vi en singelmamma med eget företag. Detta är den första boken av henne som finns på svenska. Vill man ha en liten utmaning och läsa på engelska i sommar finns det två andra böcker av författaren på engelska:
Knit two:
KNIT TWO returns to the Manhattan knitting store, 'Walker & Daughter', five years after the death of the store's owner, Georgia Walker. Georgia's daughter Dakota is now an eighteen-year-old freshman at NYU, running the knitting store part-time with the help of the members of the Friday Night Knitting Club. Drawn together by their love for Dakota and the sense of family the club provides, each knitter is struggling with new challenges: for Catherine, finding love after divorce, for Darwin, newborn twins, for Lucie, being both a single mom and caregiver for her elderly mother, and for seventysomething Anita, marriage to her sweetheart Marty over the objections of her grown children.As Kate Jacobs returns to the world of 'Walker & Daughter', she's once again keyed into many of the stresses and joys of being a mother, wife, daughter and friend.
Comfort food:
TV cooking personality Augusta Simpson determines to take her show to Number 1 to remove the threat of a younger presenter being brought in as co-host. The format of her show will be a series of intimate dinners where she teaches a group of younger people to make rich, sensuous meals -- real food for real people -- nourishing the soul as well as tempting the tastebuds. The guests are all her friends -- an assorted group of ages and races with different problems, which, of course, get solved along with the dinners.
Båda böckerna finns på Adlibris i pocket för 79:-
