I just finished reading The Glassblower of Murano and really liked that. I was left wit the wonderful task of picking a new book to read. I loved reading about Venice and wanted to keep reading a book about another country so I chose The French Gardener by Santa Montefiore. I started to read and I think this is going to be another good one! I am a gardener and always have been so I was drawn to the cover of this book. There is a woman standing in a field with a very distant village ahead of her. The village is very blurry so you can see that she is quite far from it. Around her though are glorious flowers, lots of flowers! From what I can see in the slightly disorted picture the flowers are poppies, petunias, dahlias, lavender and roses. The woman on the cover is wearing a very bright orange colored dress with her back to us. Should be a very interesting book! I'll keep you informed. Everyone have a very beautiful day!
Good morning Sherri. It will be interesting to find out how you like this new book. The cover appeals to me too...being a gardener:)

ReplyDeleteDar, I wish I could say that was a nook in my home. I got the pic from the internet.
ReplyDeleteOooh, looks like a good book, can't wait to hear more about it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the book suggestion, Sherri. I put it on my amazon wish list. I'm looking forward to hearing what you think of it. It sounds like a really good story.
ReplyDeleteI finished reading Lost Symbol and am now reading Deception Point again by Dan Brown. I've been picking up paperback books at the library for 50 cents. :-)
