The Goddesses of Kitchen Avenue: A Novel | Barbara O'Neal

#AyupAugust
#AvenuesAndAlleyways
There are no alleyways in my book stacks but a few avenues. Here are three: “Swans” & “Kitchen Goddesses” in two titles & a “Witch Avenue” in the subtitle of the other. I have only read the tagged book—the others are downloaded on my Kindle, #TBR

Miracle on 34th Street | Valentine Davies

“[T]o me the imagination is a place all by itself. A very wonderful country. You've heard of the British Nation and the French Nation? Well, this is the Imagination. And once you get there you can do almost anything you want.”

Dragonfly in Amber | Diana Gabaldon

#AyUpAugust #AvenuesAndAlleyways

A pretty intense scene happens in an alleyway. Claire comes out unscathed, but not for her female companion.

squirrelbrain I haven‘t read any Gabaldon.... perhaps I should?! 5y

CrowCAH @squirrelbrain so far I‘ve read book one and two of Outlander; I enjoyed book two better than the first. I even watched the first season and the 16 hours went by the book. 5y

Cinfhen It‘s SUCH a commitment @squirrelbrain that I haven‘t read it either 😬 5y

Fifth Avenue, 5 Am: Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the Dawn of the Modern Woman | Sam Wasson

If you‘ve seen the movie Breakfast at Tiffany‘s, you may want to take a look at this book. Wasson writes a film history of the movie and how Holly Golightly became a status symbol for women. #AvenuesandAlleyways #Ayupaugust

Crazeedi Looks really interesting!! 5y

squirrelbrain I agree @Crazeedi it does look really interesting! 💙 5y

Apple Tree Yard: A Novel | Louise Doughty

#AyupAugust #Avenuesandalleyways

Apple Tree Yard is a tiny little alleyway in London, and the location of a impulsive moment that becomes a catalyst for the chain of events that unravel in this dark and twisty psychological mystery/court room drama..... Don‘t want to say more, at risk of spoilers!

Apparently this was made into a tv mini series, and though I‘ve not seen it, I imagine it worked well on screen....

Cinfhen, squirrelbrain

TrishB I‘ve not seen the series, but can imagine it working well too. A quick, twisty read. 5y

Freespirit Yes the series was good. 5y

squirrelbrain I didn‘t watch the series either but really liked the book! 5y

Cinfhen I‘ve already stacked this book!!! Must have been one of you Britts who previously posted ❣️😛sounds good 5y
