#farawayplace #springflingreading 17th century China is a very long way away in space and time. I really enjoyed Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and Shanghai Girls so this should be a good read 🤞

I'd say Fairyland is a pretty #FarawayPlace. #SpringFlingReading

The magus: a revised edition | John Fowles

3.24 #springflingreading #farawayplace I love the Greek Islands so much, the food, the weather, the people, the water.... it's heaven on earth for me. So I love to read fiction set there... Top two are favorites... bottom two are recent additions to my #TBR thanks to Book outlet. 🌞🌊🌍💕

ApoptyGina69 The Magus blew me away when I first read it. Keep meaning to get a nice copy rather than the chunky paperback I still have. I really liked

Vintage Attraction

LeeRHarry Victoria Hislop is one of my faves!! 😊 7y

KarenUK @ApoptyGina69 I love the Magus... 💕 7y

KarenUK @Cinfhen No shame needed! But I highly recommend The Magus if you liked The Secret History.... very similar vibe....😊💕 7y

KarenUK @LeeRHarry not read her yet😔.... But going to fix it with this one soon 👍💕 7y

In The Shadow Of The Banyan | Vaddey Ratner

It's not a beach read, but Cambodia is about as far away as you can get. #farawayplace #springflingreading I read this as part of my #diverse reads and learned a lot about the Khmer Rouge and Cambodia under their rule, told from the experience of a small girl.

howjessicareads I've read a few books in a Cambodian mystery series that were really good! 7y
