The Paris in July 2012 event is finally here! Isn’t that one of the loveliest buttons you have ever seen? I just fell in love with it the moment I saw it on Karen’s blog at Book Bath. This event, which is already into its third year now (first for me, though) is co-hosted by both Karen & Tamara at Thyme for Tea.
Besides the two books that I have already started (and enjoying much) in June, I thought I’d also round up the rest of my little French collection from the various nooks and corners they were hiding at on the various bookshelves around the house, and plonk them together for a ‘family photo’ kinda shot.
I am especially interested in Carol McCleary’s The Alchemy of Murder which sounds like a fun romp for a historical thriller, what with Jules Verne, Oscar Wilde and Jack the Ripper all thrown in, and the unveiling of the Eiffel Tower for the 1889 World Fair as the background! Anyone read this, by the way?
So many good stuff waiting to be savoured, where does one start??
Maybe for the time being, I should just concentrate on finishing the two I have got going at the sidebar up there and not be too greedy. :p
Still, it’s always fun to imagine all the possibilities and choices that could be had, isn’t it? 😉
Books aside, I plan to also celebrate Paris in July 2012 by reliving some of my favourite moments from my first trip to the city in the form of a series of snapshots. I think I would like to refer to the series of posts to come as ‘Paris in Pictures’.
Well, that’s the plan anyway. Let’s see how well it translates out. 🙂
