Fascinating, a bit slow in places, but if you are a wine lover or interested in the history of wine, this book may be right for you. Following the wine tasting that changed the world of wine, this looks at the history of California wine and what happened when they beat the best French wines in France in 1976. I savored this one! #Doublespin #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I‘m knee deep in company and falling way behind in reading and Litsy this week. But typically hours in my days are spent as the wing-woman for 2-yr old as he fashions a day‘s ‘book blanket‘. Nightly collapse and reshelving of materials is the sole responsibility of said wing-woman🤣

Getting my stack of books together for April and it's about a half a cat high. It's way too ambitious given I don't read that many physical books any more. We'll see though. I do have spring break and lighter nights coming up. I'll tag the books in the comments because I also have a bunch of audiobooks and kindle books I want to get to too. Oh and a trip to the library today to pick up some more holds...

Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks right? The me who plans my reading and the me who actually reads are two separate people 13h

CatMS I'm finding I'm reading and enjoying more physical books and less on my Kindle. Kindle is for night reading in bed. Of course audiobooks are for my commutes, even on short commutes to the market. 10h

3.5⭐️

I enjoy reading history because I love to learn things. In Keith Lowe's Naples 1944: The Paradise at War, Lowe takes us on a journey of Naples during WWII when the Allies first land there. His book covers the years 1943-1946.

I have a problem when I read history books. I always end up going down the rabbit hole. This time was no different. I was never taught in school about the Allies landing there, or I don't remember it.
⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read I remember learning about Normandy and the rest of France, the Netherlands, and of course, when they made it to Germany. I like it when a writer of history writes in a way that you feel what the people went through, and Lowe does this well. If you like history or WWII history, specifically, I think you would enjoy this book. The main reason is because Lowe tells about a little known town affected by the war and the Allies. Not that Naples is little. It's just not talked about much what the town and people went through during this time.
