Some crave life in the fast lane; me, I’m happy reading a great book & then discovering on the final page that it’s to be the first in a trilogy! I’ve loved travelling with Gabriel Dax, travel writer, accidental spy & hero of #GabrielsMoon by #WilliamBoyd & can’t wait for the next leg of his journey
the musical stylings of Chill Wills and the Avalon Boys.

Das „Trio“ sind Talbot, der Produzent, Anny, die berühmte amerikanische Schauspielerin und Elfrieda, die Schriftstellerin. Aus ihrer Sicht wird dieses Buch witzig und spannend erzählt, denn bei einem Filmdreh kann schon mal so einiges schief gehen. #buchsky #williamboyd #kampaverlag #buchblog #trio
Just finished Restless by #WilliamBoyd. It is perfection. But now I have a massive book hangover. If you've read it&are able to recommend something similar, I'd be grateful. Don't want a typical "spy" genre that feels hollywood &fantastical. Restless was so ordinary&real but exhilarating too. #book
