PARIS IN JULY 2018 - FINAL WEEK 29.7.18


It's definitely been a great idea for another year of posting
all things Paris and French
with our host Tamara at Thyme for Tea
Rather than quit the fun midweek
we're enjoying a full week to complete our posting
of art, music, books, food, style, sites, history and more.
Be sure to check out the lovely collection by worldwide bloggers.
Are there questions you're wishing you had answers for?
Why not have that discussion with friendly
and knowledgeable bloggers
on their favourite French topics!
A great gateway to new understanding of places and people.
I've read interesting journals of writers and artists
for this year's Parisien journey and highly  recommend them
for beauty and insights into Paris life.

Janelle McCulloch's

exploration of the City of Light's varied Arrondisements

and Janice MacLeod's adventures during her Paris Year
all artfully rendered and descriptively enticing...

I'd love to hear your recommendations!
My #ParisinJuly pinterest board is crammed full of 
scenic invitations to explore Paris.
Let me know your responses !
Any trips planned...?

Great question to begin this week of Paris in July as I look at the stack and the basket
and then consider ereads and audios waiting for my attention ...

~
Canadian author, Genevieve Graham's masterful WWI story that takes the reader
from a wartime life in Paris to England then across the Atlantic to the Eastern shore of Canada.
Not to miss this talented writer.
~ Great additions as well to Canadian Book Challenge 9  and Big Book Summer ~

Currently reading another Paris in July entry Lisette's List

Fascinating story of the art collected by a paint supply salesman throughout his lifetime.
Art of famous French artists and their stories lived and preserved through his memories 
told before he dies.  I'm just getting to the beginning of the war as Germany invades France
and their meaningless destruction of thousands of works of art.
Unique story and writing style .
My book choice for July's #collaboreads challenge and another Big Book Summer read.

~
The Forgotten Garden, Still underway,  I've just chosen to wait for an
 audio copy arrival to complete it. 
I'm definitely intrigued with the multi generational story layering.
