Breaking Away
Breaking Away | Anna Gavalda
4 posts | 6 read | 5 to read
During a car journey to a family wedding, Garance reflects on how adult life, with its disappointments and responsibilities, has not always gone to plan for herself or her three siblings. But just around the corner lies the chance for them to revisit their younger, carefree selves in a delightfully unplanned escapade.

I posted my #weeklyforecast and then promptly picked up something I hadn‘t intended to read. Story of my life! I am thoroughly enjoying it though. It‘s translated from the French (Gallic is the publisher) and to start with, it was very French feeling. I‘ve adjusted now and am giggling at certain bits and loving the story of these four crazy adult siblings.

Crazeedi That's what I'm afraid I'd do if I tried to forecast my reading for the week!! 5y
BookNAround @Crazeedi It happens to me each week but I do find that forecasting does pull me back to that short stack too so I‘m not flitting from book to book and leaving others that I was excited about reading behind quite as often as I was so it‘s working for me. Also, I try and pull one book off my bedside table and add it to the weekly forecast to help remind me to get back to the temporarily abandoned stuff. 😉 5y
Crazeedi @BookNAround that's a good way to think of it. Nothing set in stone but not wandering around trying to decide what to read next, like I just did today! Lol 5y
Crazeedi @BookNAround I definitely need to attack my unfinished books, ones I do want to read but just havent. I'm thinking for the next 24beforemonday I'm going to read only books I need to finish! 5y

A good, short book that I read in one sitting. Not for everyone but I enjoyed it. 🇫🇷
