Reading this during my trip to Thailand formerly known as Siam. That is the city of Bangkok where this book takes place. BTW this book is awesome. I learned so much about Thailand and life at the Grand Palace. Spoiler there was no love or romance between Anna and the King. Just friendship.
Apparently, I need to read more books #SetInSoutheastAsia, because all I have for this prompt is the musical of The King and I. #AprilBookShowers
It's a good night for a musical!
Not the best picture but my #coolspines are old books. I adore everything about old books and they have some of the most interesting spines and covers. #riotgrams
I had the joy of going to see The King and I at Playhouse Square in Cleveland last night. The show was very good. The singing was outstanding. I am sharing a picture of the street in front of the theater for those of you who have never been to Cleveland. This is the lovely chandelier over the street. Playhouse Square is a wonderful venue, and I feel fortunate to have it in my area. Come and visit Ohio - Cleveland Rocks!!
So...I follow @GailCarriger because I'm a member of the #ParasolProtectorate. If you're not, you should check out her books - start with Soulless. Anyway, she frequently shares book deals for books she finds interesting or that have influenced her. She also reviews books that she has enjoyed as part of a book club of sorts. It's a lot of fun to learn more an author who's work I enjoy, even if it means I spend all my money on books.
#Day10 of #somethingforsept: books #setinasia. I really enjoy reading about these cultures as they are so very different from our own. The Orchid House alternates between present day England and Thailand during WWII. The Virgin's Knot is set in Turkey. Beneath a Marble Sky is a beautiful love story centered around the making of the Taj Mahal. Empress and the Lisa See books are set in China. The Sleeping Dictionary is a wonderful story set in India
