solitude sunday

we read books on solitude sunday.  i read one last week and posted about it, however, i don't know what happened to it! my technology challenged self must have struck the wrong key and it disappeared. no matter.  

last week my book was patience bloom's romance is my day job: a memoir of finding love at last. ms bloom works as an editor in the romance novel industry. according to her story, her personal quest to find the right dude was a great deal more challenging than being an editor of romance novels! the most amazing part of this book is the author's name; as it could easily be the name of a romance novel's author!

my book this week is ray walker's the road to burgundy: the ulikely story of an american making wine and a new life in france. even if one cares nothing about wine, reading about the process was interesting.  however, as the book progressed it seemed more and more "unlikely" to me as some of it just didn't ring true. after finishing the book i did an internet search of the author.  it seems many others didn't and don't believe his story. one of the articles about him quoted him as saying he had enough material for a second book.  if such a book appears, i won't be reading it.
