Top Ten Books On My Fall TBR List





Happier at Home: Kiss More, Jump More,
Abandon a Project, Read Samuel Johnson,
and My Other Experiments in 
the Practice of Everyday Life
by Gretchen Rubin

I've been waiting for this one for months.
Happily, this arrives today!



Yes, Chef:  A Memoir
by Marcus Samuelsson

Last week I read two great books about food
and cooking. Can't wait to read this one, too.




Little Paris Kitchen (French Edition)
The Little Paris Kitchen
by Rachel Khoo

Khoo moves to Paris and
enrolls at Le Cordon Bleu.
Paris and food.



A Sense of Direction:
Pilgrimage for the Restless and the Hopeful
by Gideon Lewis-Kraus

Always glad to find new travel books,
especially those that also include spiritual quests.



Ella in Europe: An American Dog's International Adventures
by Michael Konik

Yes, always glad to find new travel books.
And who could pass up traveling in Europe with a dog?!



Help Thanks Wow:
The Three Essential Prayers
by Anne Lamott

Anne Lamott.
Prayers.
I don't think I need to say anything else.



Europe on 5 Wrong Turns a Day:
One Man, Eight Countries,
One Vintage Travel Guide
by Doug Mack

Mack decides to travel through Europe 
using only a 1963 copy of Europe on 5 Dollars a Day
as his guide.



The Hottest Dishes of the Tartar Cuise
by Alina Bronsky

Never let it be said that I don't read the occasional
fiction book.




Do you have other suggestions for me?
How about you? 
What will you be reading this fall?




Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list that one of our bloggers here at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists! If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. Have fun with it! It's a fun way to get to know your fellow bloggers.

  1. Deb - Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting! I appreciate your recommendation of rereading the Little House Series! It does seem like a fall read!

    Unfortunately, I don't recognize any of the books on your TBR list :( You will have to let me know if they are any good!!! The Europe of 5 Wrong Turns a Day looks like it could be amusing and fun!

  4. I'm not really into 'self-help' books but Gretchen Rubin's 'The Happiness Project' was life-changing for me! Didn't know she had a new book out - will be adding it to my TBR pile as well.

  8. Ella in Europe looks adorable! What a sweet-looking puppy. I admire anyone whose dog is well-behaved enough to take on a European vacation--mine certainly isn't! :)
