I want a sequel; don’t leave me hanging!
So, I finished up my Julie Andrews book, but she left me hanging! Julie was beginning to talk about Mary Poppins, but I never got to hear what filming was like, who she met during the movie, how many hours of work she put in, what she thought of the songs she got to sing, and many other exciting things that happen when you make a movie. When she talked about meeting Walt Disney, I couldn’t imagine how she felt. You don’t meet the man behind the thousands of brilliant shows every day. Another interesting fact is that Julie married Tony Walton, a guy she knew since she was young. The book told about their first child, Emma, and how Julie enjoyed being pregnant with her. Then, as a side note, Julie has talked about her present husband, Blake, but during the book we never got to find out what went wrong with Julie and Tony. I wonder how she met Blake and if they fell in love right away. I find it funny how an autobiography left me hanging just like some of my favorite fiction novels. Maybe, one day, Julie Andrews will make a book called: “Home Part Two: A Memoir of My Later Years.” Unless she already has a book out, which I doubt since I haven’t seen anything around. Well, if any of you readers out there find one, let me know because I would love to read it! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, autobiographies are actually interesting! This is coming from a girl who doesn’t LOVE reading. Sure, I like it at times, but really I’m not an avid reader. That means if I’m saying I couldn’t put these books down, you probably won’t be able to either! Here is a funny quote I found, “Life can't be all bad when for ten dollars you can buy all the Beethoven sonatas and listen to them for ten years.” -William F. Buckley Jr.
