Julie and Julie is a book which is at its heart self indulgent - and as a sort of a partial memoir you expect this. However what I found jarring was the person the memoir was about. Julie Powell cries at every obstacle, throws tantrums when things go wrong, yells at her husband for no reason God only knows what she'd be like in reality. But in a way I liked that, at first. The reality of it all, the way she'd showed a no holds barred view of who she was. Similar to an actress going bare faced in a film - it was a little liberating and strangely fascinating. However that soon got old. Really old. Really fast. No sane, happy person would react the way she does so continuously, with so little explanation. However, saying that, there are positives. She has a nice writing style, the project she undertook was interesting and whilst I doubt I would ever read another book by her unless it was concerning a challenge equally engrossing I didn't actively dislike this book. If there was a star rating for lukewarm water this would be the book for it. In fact the only thing which gave me pains was, you guessed it, the constant childish pessimism of the author. If it's a weigh up I'd say watch the infinitely more interesting and enjoyable movie. It tells you a lot more about the life of Julia Child and stars the wondrous Meryl Streep - what more incentive do you need than that?! I have a particular fondness for books that include recipes as part of the narrative and the food is an important part of this book; but these are not recipes most people would feel capable of attempting! I read it after seeing the film but enjoyed the way it captures a particular time in history and in a woman's life in an individual and friendly voice. My only criticism is that it feels slightly too long about two thirds of the way through. Pires 5. This lead me to Julie and Julia. Julie's take on herself, her life and everyone and everything around her is incisive, brilliant and funny and that flowery language notwithstanding, I savoured every word. I am a follower and cannot wait to read her next offering. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 March Verified Purchase I like to put my ideas out there in the blogging universe and I always think that it's like sending your heart out into the big bad world. Julie's story is an inspiration because it means that when you write what you think, when you write well, someone else will notice and someone else will reach out! I imagine Julie Powell writes like she talks. The writing is fluid, like you're in a conversation with your friend and you're listening to her talk.

We none of us knew for sure WHAT kind we were, exactly, but as long as were the kind that could sit around eating together and having a lovely time, that was enough.

It was easy enough to keep on with the soul-sucking jobs; at least it saved having to make a choice. But how much longer could I take such an easy life? Quicksand was easy. Hell, death was easy.

JULIE AND JULIA: MY YEAR OF COOKING DANGEROUSLY By Julie Powell | eBay There would be no marriages at the end of this Austen novel, though, no happy endings, no endings at all. Just jokes and friendships and romances and delicious declarations of independence. Now I am a thirty-one year old writer. I get paid very well to sit around in my pajamas and type on my ridiculously fancy iMac, unless I'd rather take a nap. Feel free to hate me -- I certainly would.

It was easy enough to keep on with the soul-sucking jobs; at least it saved having to make a choice. But how much longer could I take such an easy life? Quicksand was easy. Hell, death was easy. Maybe that's why my synapses had started snapping at the sight of potatoes and leeks in the Korean deli. Maybe that was what was plucking deep down in my belly whenever I thought of Julia Child's book. Maybe I needed to make like a potato, winnow myself down, be a part of something that was not easy, just simple. Performance anxiety and a dry-cleaning bill, those were the only things keeping me from stark raving lunacy. But here, in the Juliaverse Here, I took butter and cream and meat and eggs and I made delicious sustenance. I thought I was using the Book to learn to cook French food, but really I was learning to sniff out the secret doors of possibility. It was quite tasty. But then you're a vegan and you don't count. Julie remembered, as a child, perusing her mother's copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking when she couldn't sneak peeks at her parents' The Joy of Sex. Surprisingly, she found eroticism in both books and likened reading Julia Child's cookbook to reading pornographic bible verses. There was the purity of the ingredients--butter, fresh vegetables, organ meats--flavored with the visceral illustrations and Julia's no-nonsense approach to cooking. Perhaps it's no accident that Julie refers to Julia Child as J. Julie Powell's reading of her book makes it an extremely personal account of the project. When she quotes J. Parts of the book are disturbing, such as the occasional filthy conditions of her kitchen and artery-clogging richness of some of the recipes, but Julie bravely perseveres. Anyone squeamish about preparing lobster should fast forward when Julie begins the recipe that calls for cleaving a live lobster in two. As distasteful as she finds the task, she completes it as part of her undertaking, but swears she'll never prepare that recipe again.

It is difficult to explain the emotional extremes that learning something so essential to the soul can be. I guess you have to be there. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 July Verified Purchase I think that I was expecting, and hoping, that the 'Julie' in the book would be as sweet as the way Amy Adams played 'Julie' in the film. Julie in the book is way tougher! I did learn though about the tiny hole in our Cuisinarte processor which is meant for drizzling in oil for home made mayo which was useful.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 January Verified Purchase if like me you loved the film you might be a little disappointed in this book, but please carry on reading it and you will soon find that this is a gem in it's own right. No Julie is nothing like the character in the film and at times far more annoying but there is something that makes you want to keep on reading. Trapped in a boring job and living in a tiny apartment in New York, Julie Powell regularly finds herself weeping on the way home from work. And The Project is born. The richness of the thousands of sauces she slaves over is beginning to spread into her life, and she begins to find the joie de vivre that has been missing for too many years. Read more Read less.

Product details Publisher : Penguin 22 Feb. Synopsis Trapped in a boring job and living in a tiny apartment in New York, Julie Powell regularly finds herself weeping on the way home from work. Then one night, through her mascara-smudged eyes, Julie notices that the few items she's grabbed from the Korean grocery store are the very ingredients for Potage Parmentier, as described in Julia Childs' legendary cookbook, "Mastering the Art of French Cooking". And the project is born. Julie begins to cook - every one of the recipes in the book, in the space of just one year. This is Julie's story, as gradually, from oeufs en cocotte to bifstek saute au beurre, from "Bitch Rice" to preparing live lobsters, she realises that this deranged project is changing her life.
