Week 3
May 6,2013

Conversation 1

I would look at Frances Mayes books: she is a fun travel writer, also an excelent cook and she will take you to a great part of Italy in the Tuscan countryside, where she buys and restores an old villa. You'll meet the local people and learn  delicious recipes.
"Under the Tuscan sun : at home in Italy" by Frances Mayes.

Conversation 2

Since the customer does not want YA love, I will recommend "A discovery of Witches" by Deborah Harkness .
A book of vampires, witches,  passion and  book research : the manuscript found in Oxford, at the Bodleian Library is the pretext for this novel. Interesting characters, including an amazing house...that you would  love to "meet".

Conversation 3

Non fiction it is hard for me, but Erik Larson will please every reader:

"In the garden of beasts: love, terror and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin" historical story with a great atmosphere,
begins with love, intrigue and fun life in Germany in the 1933 and ends on a description of violence and terror of the Hitler's Germany.
