Venice in February
Dolce Bellezza is hosting Venice in February. I thought I'd join in. I shall be reading Ian McEwan's Comfort of Strangers. This challenge also fits into my own personal, and very much on going challenge, of reading some of Warmth's very many books. I shall also be using this as an excuse to post some of my favourite quotes from Salley Vickers' Miss Garnet's Angel and The Merchant of Venice.

I shall be traveling to Venice for the first time in June, since reading Venice by Jan Morris I have been desperate to go. Enjoy your lit trip!
ReplyDeleteI just finished The Comfort of Strangers...not comforting! But, interesting. We'll talk when you're done, I don't want to spoil any surprises of course. I've been wanting to read Miss Garnet's Angel as there have been so many comments about it regarding this challenge. People seem to love that book. Happy February!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes... I'm traveling to Venice, too! Miss Garnet's Angel is my first stop.
ReplyDeleteI have been in Venice in February and adored it --we were lucky enough to be there during a rare snowfall -- and even the Venetians were a bit thrilled by it. So lovely. Ever since then, I have become such a fan of winter travel.
ReplyDeleteLilac - Looking forward to reading about your actual travels. Roll on June.
ReplyDeleteBellezza - I've just seen your post on Comfort of Strangers but shall resist reading it until I've actually read the book. Enjoy Miss Garnet & thank you for organising.
Jo Ann - Looking forward to travelling with you!
AJ- Hello. How glorious my memories of Venice are searing heat. I love the coast in winter.
I'm not sure I'll get to join in this month, but I am so lookin forward to reading the reviews that you all post about Venice. If it's on again next year maybe I'll get there. I hope you enjoy the enxperience.
ReplyDeleteTamara - Wouldn't it be lovely to become an annual event - like Paris in July...
ReplyDeleteGood luck with that challenge - I have failed miserably to read many of hubby's books! xC
ReplyDeleteCathy - Thankfully we have a whole life together to try. Maybe one a year?
