For all of you fans of Italy, I just finished reading the novel The Savage Garden by Mark Mills. It is a murder mystery set in Tuscany. A very good read with wonderful descriptions of Tuscany and a great way to spend a rainy afternoon.

Thanks jd - I have a gift coupon to spend at my local bookstore and might just pick that one up!
At the moment I have just finished reading Diane Johnson's "Into a Paris Quartier" which is a light historical account of the beloved 6th mainly.
I loved it!
Now for a complete change I'm into "The Magic Spring - My Year learning to be English" by Richard Lewis
So far so good as I love England Too!

COOKING WITH FERNET BRANCA by James Hamilton-Paterson, a very witty book.
