Did I not also live this unnatural life for ten months? Thus, to that question asked six thousand years ago by Ecclesiastes, “That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out?” only two men now have the right to answer: Captain Nemo and myself.

Such fond memories of Paris, where I bought this. A little slow to start and loved it by halfway. Wonderful characters!

Just a few years after the end of WWII, pregnant Charlie is sent to Europe to rectify her “situation” but she takes the opportunity to track down her cousin who went missing in Nazi-occupied France. She recruits Londoner Eve to help.
Eve has spent the last few decades trying to recover from her time as a spy during WWI and agrees to help Charlie in the hopes it will lead to her revenge against the man who betrayed her.

Just sitting back and starting this one. The MC ( or what I think might be the main c ) is a serious over-thinker… interesting psychological profile 🤞🏻set in France , Saint-Louis. Someone is going to disappear from mc‘s local restaurant .. I think I could love this.

Tamra I am anxious to find out whether you end liking it. If so, I‘ll stack! 3d

Thanks for the #TLT #ThreeLineThursday tag @dabbe
I did the survey earlier & thought I should post it before Thanksgiving Day is over here!

Here‘s 3 of my answers:

1. No one shall ever take my beloved potatoes away, so I‘ll therefore have to have turkey everyday (hopefully I can rotate the form/type).🥔🤎

2. I hate pumpkin pie so I don‘t care if the sugar is left out, & we‘ll keep the rolls unburned.🥐

3. I‘m all for any only sides meal!😋

DebinHawaii Go to @dabbe ‘s post to see the details & get the survey link! (Thanks for the holiday fun @Dabbe !) 🤗 4d

LiseWorks How could anyone hate pumpkin pie 🥧. You haven't tasted mine! Fresh Pumpkin, not from the can. Real cream, not condensed milk. Maple syrup and less brown sugar. Lots of Dream Whip, not the can whip cream. You would taste the difference. 4d
Bookwormjillk Potatoes are the reason for the season I agree 4d
dabbe #spudsgottastay #ourladyofthepotatoes is the best title of a book ever! 🤩😂😘 4d
