My first Peter Mayle book. This is a book of essays/articles he wrote exploring the lifestyle of the rich. He pokes fun at them, yet he also relates to them. I found the book interesting and had a few LOL moments too.

My $3.50 library bookstore haul. I‘ve already started the tagged book and have caught myself LOL-ing.

Okay so I just wanted to warn everyone that this list can change on daily basis this is how I feel today. Nevertheless is really interesting to do it!

1. Roald Dahl (specially his short stories for adults)
2. Gabriel García Márquez (I am Colombian. This guy was amazing)
3. Margaret Atwood
4. Joe Hill
5. Murakami (I love how he can jump from one genre to the other. Same as Atwood and Garcia Márquez

britt_brooke Great choices! 6y
