BOOK REVIEWS!
One of my resolutions for 2018 was to read more, so I managed to get through 3 books in February. Here are my reviews on the following books. What books are you reading lately? Please share your favorite reads with me!
If you are into fashion and the real housewives reality shows, this book could be for you. This is an auto-biography of Maria Dominick, former model and socialite at her prime in the 1970's. From her humble beginnings in Brazil to her tumultuous yet glam life in New York and other fashion capitals, she recounts her emotionless married life. It's actually entertaining but in the end, you kind of don't feel bad for her. There are way bigger problems in life than what she complains about.
Night by Elie Wiesel:
As a Holocaust survivor, Elie recounts his horrible experience in the Auschwitz concentration camp, the death of his family and of his innocence. There are really no words to describe this book, just read it. I rate this book 5 stars, I had to buy it on Amazon after returning my library copy.
This is a french book also available in English, under the name "Suzanne". All her life, Anais noticed that her grandmother was never in her mother's life and never made an effort to be part of it. After the death of her unknown grandma, Anais is curious and decides to find out who exactly was this lady and why did she not take care of her children? Her grandmother was Suzanne, a lady who lived life on the edge which got her in a lot of trouble. This is a true story.
Any good book suggestions for me? Comment down below.

3 books in February is really great! I’m impressed I had a hard time getting through one. :) I’m into fashion and I love the Real Housewives, those ladies are crazy! I’m loving those PJs dear. I love hearing about my Grandmother and all of her experiences so La Femme Qui Fuit sounds like a great book for me.
ReplyDeleteI love book review posts as I'm always on the hunt for good books. Will definitely check these out, thanks doll xx

ReplyDeleteI set myself a goal of reading more this year, it's kind of stopped now but I really should get back into it, it is a relaxing way to wind down at the end of the day!
Hope you are having a good weekend :) We are having a quiet one to recover from our busy week!
