Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
This is the 3rd instalment of the Magical Mystery Book Club, and it is as fantastic as the previous 2. Elizabeth has a way of writing that pulls you in from the get-go and keeps you guessing the mystery all the way through until it's solved. I can't say too much as it would give too much away but most people complain about book clubs, and say they are a bit drab, but I would love to join this one!
Well done, Elizabeth. Another fantastic story. Keep them coming.

Elizabeth Gilbert is one of my favorite authors so I knew this would be an amazing book and I was not disappointed! She has this amazing ability to make you forget you're reading a book...suddenly you're in the book, experiencing everything due to the beautiful detail and honesty with which she writes. An inspiration to everyone who has ever felt lost, stuck, hopeless or lost their zest for life. While we can't all take off and travel the world to find ourselves like Elizabeth, we can live vicariously through her writing and gain hope, insight and in the end happiness.

I truly fell that his it a good read. You learn about Lydia youngest sister Ruthie and Lydia struggles. You may to start crying while reading this book. I now I did. I felt like i was a part of the story myself. We also meet the Kauffman's Family.
We meet some of the Kauffman Family member from the Kauffman's Amish Bakery series. This story is about the Elizabeth and Eli granddaughter Lydia Bontrager.

I loved this - every page of it. And to think I’d held off reading it because everyone was saying how good it was (I don’t even understand my own logic sometimes!). Actually, I think I was worried I wouldn’t like it. No need to be concerned though!
There’s a serious theme behind the laugh out loud moments. Elizabeth Zott is a single parent and what’s more, she was never married. And to add insult to injury, she wants to work as an actual scientist - a chemist (believe me, I live in a house of scientists, and it’s a serious business!). And she’s a very good scientist.
The 1950’s were no time to have a career if you were female. The general feeling I get from this, is that they (the men) wanted women to look pretty, pop out babies and do the cooking and cleaning. I think I may be the antithesis of the 1950’s woman…
I loved Elizabeth Zott. She’s funny, intelligent, and she takes no nonsense. I’ve seen reviews where people say she’s clearly autistic, but I’m not so sure. Elizabeth had a difficult childhood, a hard time at university, and she’s constantly having to prove herself. I don’t know as I’d feel too chipper in her shoes.
But I laughed a lot. Her daughter is charming, her friends are the best, and the dog is clearly the star of the show!
Highly recommended.

A fun, frothy read! There were two glaring errors that I can't understand why they were not picked up! One character is likened to Anne Elliot in Persuasion - I think they mean Elizabeth Elliot, as that was definitely the character the quotations referred to! I'd also like to know more of this King George VII......

A Wonderful Reimagining
questions readers may have had from the original work. Elizabeth is a dark, yet delightful character who literally "takes care of Victor" to the very end.
We get to meet the monster on a more personal level and information is tied up quite neatly through the existence of two journals. But, no more information shall I reveal lol. Jump in and read for yourself this story of teens true meaning of freedom

I loved this movie, great cast and great female empowerment. Go rise above and kick some mob boss ass girls. Don’t let no husband try to tell you what to do while his stank ass is in jail.
