Thanks @ramsfan1963 for the tag!
1. After my trip to England, I‘m come to enjoy daffodils and tulips.
2. Hmmm. Guess I need suggestions.

This book is a collection of the 5-minute Women‘s Hour vignettes on New York life that Helene presented in the late 1970s / early 1980s.

Utterly delightful, as always with Hanff, although not as fabulous as 84, Charing Cross Road (but could anything ever match that?!)

charl08 Sounds lovely. Stacked. 3y

From 1978 to 1984 Helene Hanff wrote and presented a monthly 5 minute segment on the BBC's Woman's Hour. This book is a collection of the scripts from those broadcasts.

Der dritte der Teil der Saga von Helene Hanff steht im Zeichen der vorigen Bücher. Auch wenn mir nach wie vor der erste 84 Charing Cross der liebste ist, ist ihr Witz auch nach den Jahren noch sehr erfrischend. 😉

The third part of Helene Hanff's saga. It fits to the two previous books even though the first part 84 Charing cross is still my favourite. Her writing is still refreshing after all these years. 😉

Maike Oh ich wusste gar nicht dass es da noch einen dritten Teil gibt, ich kenne nur die ersten beiden. Ab auf die Liste damit 😁 8y
Sarah83 @Maike Das Buch greift die ersten auf, auch wenn es für sich allein steht. 😉 Es hat mir gut gefallen. 🤗 8y

Schon mal darüber nachgedacht, wie sich ein Autor bei einer Lesung fühlt? 😂

Yanes Aus der Sicht habe ich es noch nie betrachtet. Gibt einem schon zu denken... 8y
Sarah83 @Yanes ob das alle Autoren so sehen, ist ja auch dir Frage. Das Buch berichtet ab dem Jahr 1979. Die neue Generation von Autoren wächst ja auch schon mit dem Gedanken an das Marketing heran. 😉 8y

Nachdem ich jetzt soviel hochgeladen habe, brauche ich erst mal ein Schokowuppi, einen Chai Latte Schoko und mein aktuelles Buch. 😍

After I posted so much I need a chocolate wuppi, a chai latte chocolate and my book. 😍

rabbitprincess That looks yummy! 😋 8y
Bklover Looks delicious! 8y
scripturient The only thing better than a chocolate wuppi is a cinnamon one. 😉😊 8y
