The Little Paris Bookshop: A Novel | Nina George

“Books keep stupidity at bay. And vain hopes. And vain men. They undress you with love, strength and knowledge. It‘s love from within.”

Book begins with a conversation between Monsieur Perdu ( a bookseller and resident of a Parisian apartment and Madame Bernard ( the owner of the apartment building) and Madame Rosalette (the concierge). #septemberdanes #bonjourmadame

Cheri and the Last of Cheri | Colette

#BonjourMadame #SeptemberDanes I am very fond of the tagged book,I guess Gigi would be her most famous since it was turned into a play then a movie.I love this old collection of short stories I found , haven‘t read them all yet.She was nominated for the Nobel prize in Literature in 1948.And she was exquisitely French.

The Bird Market of Paris: A Memoir | Nikki Moustaki

An unread memoir in my tbr stack... Nikki grew up in Miami with her Grandfather- an avid bird lover- as her mentor. Before his death he encouraged her to visit the bird market of Paris someday, and so she did. At a low point and suffering from alcoholism, Nikki's trip to Paris ended up saving her life. I partially bought this bc of the cover 😍 but hoping the story is charming as well!

The parent of an MC in my #currentread is French and cautions us not to view all French wisdom equally.

Kalalalatja Good pick! 6y

vivastory I read Sense of an Ending a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was a masterpiece. 6y

Billypar @vivastory When I picked this one up, I'd never even heard of Barnes, it was just on a whim. Then the thing happened where after I suddenly saw Sense of an Ending everywhere, so I'm really curious to try it! 6y

Murder in Montparnasse: Phryne Fisher's Murder Mysteries 12 | Kerry Greenwood

#SeptemberDanes #day13 #BonjourMadame I was going to post the French classic Les Liaisons Dangereuses for this prompt but realised I don‘t have a photo of my copy & as I‘m back on crutches(my knee died again🙄)getting to it is too hard.So I‘m going with my fave Phryne novel.Bert & Cec ask Phryne for help after their fellow soldiers are killed.Realising it all goes back to an unsolved murder in Paris after WWI,Phryne discovers she is also involved.
