“And as the week progressed the throbbing of my biological clock syncopated with my crepe anxiety until they formed one jazz rhythm. Because what if I got to the age of thirty without having learned to make a crepe? What would have been the point of this whole exercise then?”
– p. 207 of Julie and Julia by Julie Powell –
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!
Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Haha, great teaser! Luckily I learned how to make crepes in French class at school 🙂

I never took French, but we did learn some in 3rd grade and one day we made crepes. But that was also the last time I made crepes.

Loved the movie a lot. Is the book worth reading then? I know that the book is usually better than the adaptation but I loved Meryl Street so much as Julia that I don’t want to be disappointed! My teasers are here: http://lunarossa-livingabroad.blogspot.com/2010/03/teaser-tuesday.html
Ciao. A.

I’m not loving the book. I think this may be one of the rare situations where the movie is better. But I haven’t watched it yet.
