The Way to London: A Novel of World War II

The Way to London: A Novel | Alix Rickloff

#JulyJourneys

Here are a dozen books I reviewed for book tours that are set (or mostly set) in #London. I grabbed the first 12 when I searched for London on my food blog, although there are many more & even more in books I‘ve read not for the blog & on my #TBR. London & the U.K. in general are high on the list of my favorite book settings. 💂🏻‍♀️🇬🇧

Eggs, Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

keithmalek My favorite London based novel is "A Long Way Down" by Nick Hornby. 3y

Eggs Perfect 📚🥳📚 3y

MayJasper Would you recommend any of them? @DebinHawaii 3y

DebinHawaii @keithmalek I need to read that one! 🤗 3y

DebinHawaii @MayJasper Yes, several of them but it depends on what you like to read—there‘s a mix of historical fiction, thriller, chick-lit & a cozy mystery so if any of those categories interest you, I can name my favorites. 3y

I really enjoyed following Lucy on her journey to London. What I didn‘t expect was this book to have some funny moments in it as well. I thought it was worth the read. It was nice to see a spoiled entitled brat become a caring individual, no matter how much she tries to go back to her selfish side. It‘s a great read give it a try!

If any week deserved a cocktail...😬🍸I finished this WWII coming of age story about a spoiled young woman sent away from Singapore just before the Japanese invasion for an indiscretion to the English countryside to live with her aunt. Lucy meets a young boy & helps him get to London to find his mother. Not too heavy, a good balance of humor, action & romance. With a classic Gin Rickey cocktail for my blog book tour review & recipe.📚🍸Link👇🏻

Day 21 #FallIntoBooks #setinfaveera I've posted about most of these books before but World War II era books are my definite favorites, especially when they have different perspectives as many of these nine do. I've read and enjoyed all but the center tagged book which is in my #TBR pile for an upcoming blog book tour review. 📚💜
