Vive le Livre Book Club (Page 5)

The Vive le Livre (Long Live the Book) Book Club is a celebration of books, as I simply love to read and would like to share. The Book Club offerings give a particular focus on those topics dear to Pumpjack & Piddlewick’s heart ~ France and/or the French, wine making and animal antics. Books, old and new, classique and nouveau, are recommended and all enjoyed by Pumpjack & Piddlewick. Books are not reviewed or offered that weren’t enjoyed, and consequently can’t be recommended to you. That is just a waste of time, in my book. However, as an online Club, you are invited to comment, agree, disagree, and recommend books you think others would like. We’re always open to new reads.
