Six books and not a dog in the bunch...though some books were definitely better than others...
I'm at a point where I wonder if I've read all the great books!
The Little Village of Book Lovers by Nina George
I saw that she had a new book out and nearly sent you a PM to let you know! I didn't like The Little Bookshop in Paris, but I don't remember why. :-/ But yay for cheerfulness!
The River We Remember by Willian Kent Krueger-
I keep running into Krueger and keep meaning to try him out, but I have too much other stuff to read and he never seems to get there.
Everyone Here is Lying by Shari LaPena
I read too many formulaic mysteries as a teen and burnt myself out...I never care about the mystery, so if there isn't a great quaint town that takes precedence in the mystery like in the Cat Who series (RIP Lilian Jackson Braun) or have adorable malamutes like Susan Conant's Dog Lover Mysteries that are more important than the mystery itself, I can't get into them anymore.
The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry.
This book is HUGE in Europe. It's everywhere. It's like Little House on the Prairie huge. But I never even heard of it until I got to Spain. I liked it well enough when I finally read it around 2015 (I was living in Bilbao and had been a while...I remember where I read books, not when lol).
The Cat Who Saved Books by Sosuke Netsukawa
So I read this one because of my love of The Cat Who...series as a teen...and...didn't care much for it :-/ I mean, I knew it wouldn't have anything to do with the series. But I think I was kind of mad they translated it as "Cat who" and not "Cat That" or something like that. I'm weird.
The Paris Daughter by Kristin Harmel -
I'm so over WWII books and movies that I generally just bypass them nowadays...I just can't handle it when I deal with depression on a daily basis as it is.
ETA - Oh, and I FINALLY joined Goodreads <g>. Mostly because I ran across a GR post on Pinterest about the 100 Books To Read In a Lifetime, and I wanted to be able to mark whether I'd read them or not. I've not gone all the way through the list...I'm 25 titles in and have read 22 of them.
Yay! I love Goodreads! Despite it being owned by Amazon *sigh*
