Acht Berge: Roman | Paolo Cognetti

Somehow a coming off age story connected by mountains. Even though the novel is advertised as a story of the friendship of Pietro and Bruno, I thought is is the story of Pietro emancipating himself from his father. But both stories ar econnected through the Italian Alps which are a nice theme in the background.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

This book has long been on my TBR. I also wanted a stereo read with audio because well, Stanley Tucci. Of course I loved it. My DNA tells me I‘m all but 2% from Celtic stock, and I imagine my wee Nordic bit accounts for some many times a great grandmother having a wild night as a lass with some rogue from a cool looking boat who was in search of a pint. But Stanley sure makes me wish I were of Italian heritage.

marleed @SamAnne I am indeed an Irish Butte girl and I love love love that history☘️💚. Aren‘t John‘s porkchop sandwiches (uptown location, obviously) the best!? In all my years I‘ve never even contemplated a porkchop sandwich anywhere but Butte - if indeed they are even offered anywhere but Butte🤣 6d

The Glassmaker: A Novel | Tracy Chevalier

So good, travel through Venetian history and Murano glassmaking with Orsola and her familia. If you are going to Venice or have been there you need to read this. Gives a whole other meaning to the history of glassmaking sold in Venice. Loved this book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
