For January ill be heading to Argentina: Thanks \ Pablo Katchadjian.
Shall we comment here or on the old page?I'll do both for now.
I'm heading to Ukraine with Grey Bees. This book has been patiently sitting on a bookshelf for over three years waiting for me to pick it up.
Thanks for that . Ill be heading to India ( a month ahead of time :)) with the The Mystic Masseur by V.S. Naipaul. Its going to be my first Naipaul . hope i choose not to badly - it has low rating
I still have to finish my Ukraine book, but once that is done I'll be travelling to Russia with Pelagia and the White Bulldog

I heard something about him being a terribly rude man but, nonetheless, a great and respected writer!

I just started my book and Ford sounds just like Donald Trump, of whom I am not a fan or supporter. This book will be donated to the Library Friends Bookshop. In the next day or two I will select another book to read in its place. Amen!
