CITIES THAT READ THE MOST

CITIES THAT READ THE MOST

Which cities read the most

A ranking compiled annually by Amazon

Milan is in first place, but I am very proud that Pavia is in second place!

Second place but three books: between one coffee and another, it’s been a long time since I did any bookcrossing

In case you missed it, I’ll post the description here:
I hope that it could be a good idea for you as well: if you can be interested in the book you find in the category, all you have to do is to let me know where to deliver it. I don’t ask anything in return for me, but I would suggest using the concept shown in the movie “Pay it forward”: I would like you to pass a favor on to someone else. Thanks.

First book:

UN GIORNO SOLO by Felicia Yap Piemme Editions.

A Day Alone is all about the protagonist born from Felicia Yap’s pen, considered the publishing case of the year and praised by many leading international publications.

Second book:

STRONZE SI NASCE by Felicia Kingsley, Newton Compton Publishers.

Yes: same name. Felicia Kingsley however in this case is a pseudonym, the author’s real name is Serena Artioli. Her first novel, initially self-published, was so successful that it led her to this caustically titled novel.

Third book:

FESTA DI FAMIGLIA by Sveva Casati Modignani Edizioni Sperling & Kupfer.

The author doesn’t need to be introduced, but I will say of Family Feast that it is set in Milan.
The first chapter begins like this: It was the beginning of December.

In case you would like to read one of these books, you can send me an email or a private message on the social networking site of your choice.

Books are in Italian language.

Which cities read the most and then pay it forward?
We will find out together.

Enjoy your reading and THANK YOU in advance.

HERON’S FORMULA ON THE LITERARY PORTAL

HERON’S FORMULA ON THE LITERARY PORTAL

Heron’s Formula on Mari’s Manual literary portal.

I have in my heart three feelings with which one can never be bored: sadness, love and gratitude.
Alexandre Dumas

I sincerely thank Mari’s Manual for welcoming me on their literary portal.

Now Heron’s Formula is also here, as well as part of the Book Fair Gallery.

 

I can only say that I am extremely honored and I steal the words from the song: I think I feel CONFUSED AND HAPPY 🎶

In case you are not yet familiar with Mari’s Manual, you find the essence in the slogan: Poetry and Literature in the Seas of the Web.

I find the seas of the web to be a beautiful definition: aren’t we all virtual sailors?

Indeed, I would say better virtual sailors and dreamers.

Traveling the length and breadth of the world I have met magnificent dreamers, men and women who stubbornly believe in dreams. They keep them, cultivate them, share them, multiply them. I humbly, in my own way, did the same.
Luis Sepúlveda

So Heron’s Formula on Mari’s Handbook literary portal for me is first and foremost a dream, but I hope it can also be a journey that will lead me to the possibility of learning, discovering and sharing.
