MEME: It's Tuesday, Where Are You?



It's still beautiful here on PEI - a wonderful summer, if you don't need the rain to water anything. It's getting a little dry now, with fire bans, and even talk of conserving water for city residents. That is completely unheard of around here - not watering your lawn or washing the car? However, the weather is allowing us to enjoy many softball and soccer games and we were so busy in June that we didn't even get a vegetable garden planted, so we aren't affected by the conservation request. I have a few herb planters on the deck, enough  to satisfy a tiny green thumb.


I've actually read a few books not set there, but in my new book, I'm still in Paris! Now it is the 1920s and I'm part of that lost generation, those artists who all palled around, as seen in the Woody Allen movie Midnight in Paris. Sad that the movie is my reference to that crowd, but what can I say? (The Paris Wife, by Paula McCain)

The dry weather is quite the contrast to our weather last year... Seeds were drowning and had to be replanted. Now the ground is bone dry! And, every time rain is forecast it doesn't happen... Weird weather!
I've left France...now in England. (making a European tour, I guess): http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2012/07/its-tu...
I am on the island of Thessaloniki in Greece. The story spans from the late days of World War I through past World War II. (The Thread by Victoria Hislop)
I left those folks in Edwardian England. A little too weird for me. Now I'm in 1939 America in the midst of a conversation between FDR and young JFK. Most interesting.
And on the Kindle, I'm in the late 1800s America in a mystery by Anna Katherine Green.
I'm right now in New York with The Tea Rose. I work in the tea business and this book is fascinating for me as in some way it deals with the business of tea in America of all places.
