Julie was SUCH a whiney brat. Ugh.

My understanding is that Renee led PRGs for five years prior to writing the book. I'm in a PRG and have gained so much from the group in conjunction with the book. Definitely worth looking into!Amynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396378986102986743.post-72130556150665301212010-04-16T13:36:19.881-06:002010-04-16T13:36:19.881-06:00I think letters are great, too!

I hate that we have given up on the delayed gratification of writing real letters. It's sad. And I agree about the book Julie & Julia. Not good. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I really want to in hopes that it will wash the bad taste out of my mouth.bonitinhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13371172895368105228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396378986102986743.post-13747826746700865612010-04-16T10:41:03.080-06:002010-04-16T10:41:03.080-06:00I have been wanting to read My Life in France!

Now I have to get my hands on that "You...Oooh. Now I have to get my hands on that "Yours Ever" book by Tom Mallon. What people write in letters has always fascinated me. It's like a little glimpse into their minds, their souls and their view of the world.<br /><br />I book I really enjoyed perusing along these lines is <a href="http://bit.ly/bUDpE5" rel="nofollow"> Dear Bob, Dear Betty</a> by Elizabeth Catherine Wright. It contains a collection of courtship letters between Robert Llewellyn Wright (Frank Lloyd Wright's son) and Elizabeth Kehler in the time of the Great Depression. It's top on my list in this genre because it includes sharp, readable copies of the original correspondences. It's lovely, passionate and really brings to the forefront the tone, feelings and hardships of the era.<br /><br />Hey, thanks again for the notation on the Mallon book! Happy reading!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06260910012966346272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396378986102986743.post-39932046411197235182010-04-15T23:18:37.388-06:002010-04-15T23:18:37.388-06:00I now want to read My Life in France.
