THE BEST LITTLE BOOK CLUB IN TOWN

So I bought a new love. The Best Little Book Club in Town is the collection of short tales –of love, passion, mystery, and life –written by various authors. Bought it at Popular Wangsa Walk few days back. I finished the first story, and it hooked me up.

Cute isn't it?

 The first story called Rising written by Naomi Alderman. Here’s my favorite quote:

~It was the dough in particular that she found herself longing for as if it were a lover. Perhaps it was the rhythm, knead-stretch, knead-stretch, that emptied her mind of all thoughts, that meant that when a thought of Pete arose she could pummel it into the dough until it dissipated. Perhaps it was the simplicity of it. 

She had a mixing machine, but she found that she preferred to knead herself.  Plunging her arms into the dough, she thought of the generations, the centuries of people who had made bread like this. Leaving it to rise and prove, she felt a certain nurturing, a sense that everything had its time and order, that nothing needed to be rushed.

Bread is powerful.~

Lovely isn’t it?

P/s I have to put Angry Fat Girls on hold at the moment. The Best Little Book Club in Town is so captivating.
