Top Ten Tuesday: Books set in France which I still haven't read

 




Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week there is a freebie, so we can pick our own topics. I am choosing to tie in my participation in Paris in July with a TTT post, so I bring you Books set in France which I still haven't read. All of these, and more, are currently on my Kindle.





The Perfect Meal by John Baxter - I am currently reading this at the moment.



Champagne Widows by Rebecca Rosenberg - This sound so interesting!






The Season of Dreams by Fiona Valpy - I actually have three unread books by Fiona Valpy on my Kindle, all set in France



The Little Antique Shop under the Eiffel Tower by Rebeca Raisin - I have read a number of Rebecca Raisin books, but not this one yet!






The French Photographer by Natasha Lester - I read The Riviera House by this same author last year, but I haven't read this one yet.



The Second Worst Restaurant in France by Alexander McCall Smith  - There are two books featuring cookbook writer Paul Stuart. The first was set in Italy, but this one is set in France.






The Lost Girls of Paris by Pam Jenoff - I read other Pam Jenoff books years ago, but not this one yet.



The Lost Girls in Paris by Jina Bacard - It appears girls get lost in Paris quite often.






The Dressmaker of Paris by Georgia Kaufmann - Such a clever cover!



A Light in the Window by Marion Kummerow - Sounds interesting!



Have you read any of these? I am also sharing this post as part of Paris in July!

  1. I love Alexander McCall Smith. I bet that book about the second worst restaurant is funny. I think audiobooks and libraries are wonderful too. We just read the news about how hot it was in London today. We feel your pain. Stay cool. Take lots of cold showers. Drink lots of water/Gatorade. For some reason I can't login to your Word Press site. Sorry. I'm not really anonymous. My TTT Freebie list

  2. Paris is always a good reading destination. Love the cover for The Paris Dressmaker and the Alexander McCall Smith one seems like fun.

    Happy TTT!

    1. I feel like there are more dressmakers in Paris novels that could be on this list!

  3. I love the look of these! I have read one book for Paris in July and am currently reading another. I think two books will be my limit though as time is running short!

    Have a great week!

  5. Interesting list ! I'm only familiar with Baxter's search for the perfect meal. Amazon says I bought the kindle edition in 2014, and I remember reading it but can't find anywhere on the blog that I mentioned it.
