#RedRoseSeptember

Playing catch up with yesterday‘s theme. I have several cookbooks with “world” in the title & one #AllAroundTheWorld Cookbook. Falling Cloudberries (tagged below) is just subtitled “A World Of Family Recipes” but it‘s it‘s such a gorgeous book I had to include it. 💜

#RedRoseSeptember #AllAroundTheWorld

All around the work are fans of Jane Austen, called Janietes. I‘m a proud supporter! 🥰

#RedRoseSeptember

(Day 21 - #AllAroundTheWorld)

*Probably an obvious choice here, but I haven‘t seen it used yet. Jules Verne is at top left; his illustrator, Hippolyte Léon Benett is pictured just right of Verne. All of the images pictured are Benett‘s; he was the most prolific illustrator of Verne‘s books. If you‘ve read it, you‘ll recognize the scenes. If you haven‘t, maybe you saw the movie? Anyway—Great book & especially great for kids. ♥️

arlenefinnigan I was hoping someone would pick this! 5y
gradcat @arlenefinnigan I was shocked that no one did—I thought it would be on here several times! Maybe it‘s too on the nose? 😂🤣😂 5y

#SeptemberSins My current audio is fantastic and it‘s super interesting 🤓 I‘m learning about the #SpiritsInTheSky and of sea, air, fire, the underworld and #AllAroundTheWorld ☄️💥⚡️🌏✨💫🌪☀️🌛#MythologyIsSexy

jenniferw88 I have this on the tbr thanks to @squirrelbrain ! 5y
squirrelbrain I still haven‘t managed to finish it @jenniferw88 - my first audiobook and I don‘t think I‘m designed to listen to them! 🤷‍♀️ 5y
Cinfhen I‘m loving the audio @squirrelbrain but I wouldn‘t start with this as my first audio 🙄It‘s VERY LONG!!!!!! I would recommend a memoir if you want funny definitely Noah Trevor, David Sedaris or Chelsea Handler if you want moving Alan Cumming 5y

arlenefinnigan Good choice! Deffo second Trevor Noah, his book is hilarious and it's definitely best on audio. 5y
squirrelbrain Love Chelsea Handler @Cinfhen - might try her sometime! (Would also like to read Alan Cumming‘s memoir too). I‘ve read Trevor Noah @arlenefinnigan - I can see how it could be even better on audio. Thanks for the link @jenniferw88 😘 5y
KarenUK Does Stephen Fry narrate it himself? I love him! 💕 5y

Cartel | Don Winslow

I just finished the second book in Winslow's Cartel trilogy & like the first book, "Power of the Dog", although the story primarily focuses on Mexico & southern US, there are plenty of chapters set #allaroundtheworld depicting the international connections of the drug trade.

No Place of Refuge | Ausma Zehanat Khan

Still working my way (very slowly) through this ARC. So far it‘s taken us #AllAroundTheWorld from Canada, to Greece, Turkey, France & the Netherlands in the search for Audrey, a missing Canadian charity worker based on the Greek islands. Meanwhile Syrian refugee Ali is still looking for his ‘baby‘, girlfriend Israa, who was separated from him in the chaos of the journey to Greece.

#redroseseptember

arlenefinnigan This sounds excellent, and heartbreaking. 5y
rockpools @arlenefinnigan The storyline‘s excellent, and the details just keep kicking you. I think the author has a background in human rights/immigration law. But the relationships... 🙄! Not sure if I‘d be more convinced if I‘d started with book 1 in the series... 5y
Cinfhen Oh, this is part of a series???? It sounds really good 5y
rockpools @Cinfhen Yes, I think I‘ll read the others one day. In order! (Beware US/UK title changes though.) Think this is the first : 5y
Cinfhen I‘ve actually heard REALLY WONDERFUL things about this series 😊 5y

Interesting to think what #allaroundtheworld 🌎 meant back in the classical age of Europe and Asia Minor. How small it was and yet how complex and rich. This book was a pre-internet purchase. Back when if you wanted to know anything you likely had to look it up in a book! 📚 #RedroseSeptember

arlenefinnigan Cool picture! 5y
Crazeedi I would read this for sure 5y
Ruthiella @arlenefinnigan Thanks 😀 5y

Cinfhen So true....pre Internet we learned so differently 🤓 5y
Crazeedi @Ruthiella yes! @Cinfhen and I'm still a bit old school at times! 5y
Ruthiella @Cinfhen Totally! 5y
Cinfhen I don‘t think my son who‘s 17 has ever opened an encyclopedia- or even seen one 🙄 That might even be true for my 24 year old 😢😢 @Crazeedi @Ruthiella 5y
Ruthiella @Cinfhen I get that! I use Wikipedia CONSTANTLY and I love it. (edited) 5y
