I Go to Paris

Let me clarify: I am not literally in Paris; I'm "literally" in Paris. I'm reading two Paris books. Let me share these two books with you, and you can go there, too.

Crêpes by Suzette 

by Monica Wellington

If they only allow me one book about Paris when I go to the nursing home some day, this will be the book I take with me.

Suzette is selling crêpes all over Paris---a street on the Left Bank, outside the Louvre, near Notre-Dame, and many more spots---and, through her travels around the city, she shares with her readers French vocabulary, French art, and even a recipe for crêpes.

After being out of print for some years, Crêpes by Suzette is now, happily, back in a lovely paperback edition.

Vintage 1954 

by Antoine Laurain

Hubert Larnaudie invites some of his neighbors in his apartment in Paris to share a bottle of 1954 Beaujolais. To his great astonishment, he and three others---antique restorer Magalie, mixologist Julien, and Airbnb tenant Bob---awake the next morning in 1950s Paris.

Isn't this fun?

What are you reading today?

What is the Sunday Salon? Imagine some university library's vast reading room. It's filled with people--students and faculty and strangers who've
wandered in. They're seated at great oaken desks, books piled all around them,and they're all feverishly reading and jotting notes in their leather-bound
 journals as they go. Later they'll mill around the open dictionaries and compare their thoughts on the afternoon's literary intake....That's what happens
at the Sunday Salon, except it's all virtual. Every Sunday the bloggers participating in that week's Salon get together--at their separate desks, in their
own particular time zones--and read. And blog about their reading. And comment on one another's blogs. Think of it as an informal, weekly,
mini read-a-thon, an excuse to put aside one's earthly responsibilities and fall into a good book. Click here to join the Salon.

The Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Kimba at Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It's a chance to share news and recap the past week.

Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at The Printed Page. We share books that we found in our mailboxes last week. 

 It is now being hosted here.

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews in which you can share the books you've acquired.

It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is where we share what we read this past week, what we hope to read this week…. and anything in between!
This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read”
book will come from! I love being a part of this and I hope you do too! It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is hosted at The Book Date.
