#JamminJune

Doing a #twofer for this post because #Paris is pretty #FarFromHome for me. I have quite a few Paris-titled books on my shelves & on my Kindle. I‘ve read (or cooked from ) all but four of these.

Total Recall | Arnold Schwarzenegger

#jamminjune @Eggs #farfromhome Arnold definitely comes a long way when he comes to America in his early years. His accent used to be so thick his first movie roles were dubbed because no one could understand him!

Eggs He‘s one of a kind!! 5y

After Anatevka | Alexandra Silber

so-so

Author Alexandra Silber has a deep relationship with Fiddler on the Roof, having played Hodel in the West End and Tzeitel on Broadway. Her novel picks up after Hodel has gone "far from the home I love" to be with Perchik in exile. Silber invents a backstory for Perchik and imagines what happens to the rest of the family, but beware that the action gets a bit grim. #FarFromHome #JamminJune

Eggs Nicely done ✅ 5y

TheAromaofBooks When I read this book, I couldn't believe how the entire movie of The Sound of Music was basically just the first few chapters of the book! So many more adventures after that! 5y

CoffeeNBooks @TheAromaofBooks I thought the same thing when I read the book! 5y
