Welcome to Litsy!

While reading the tagged book for #FoodandLit, I enjoyed an excellent Gouda from a local business run by a family that had immigrated to Canada from The Netherlands.

I visited their farm once and asked the cheesemakers for their personal favourite, out of all the flavoured and aged types of Gouda they offered. They didn't hesitate -- it was the plainest and mildest basic one that they preferred to eat themselves!

A low pick. This feels rather dated and the writing seems a bit awkward in places (this could be because of the translation). However, I like the quirky detectives and can see myself warming up to them even more as I continue the series.

(Day 30 - #Amsterdam)

*Who doesn‘t want to go to Amsterdam? It‘s one of my favorite places! But if you can‘t get there right away, maybe you can go by book. This series is referred to as the “Amsterdam Cops” series, and it‘ll get you there—I promise! This is an older series (begins in mid-70s), and depicts the times quite well. I‘ve only read the first one, but as the books are readily obtainable now, I‘d like to get back to it.♥️

Bought to be a gift. Can I take a moment and complain about the friggin price listed directly on the cover. And it isn't a removable sticker. 😡😡😡

And now I think I would like to real the entire Soho Press catalog.
