❤️ Coup de cœur du mois ! ❤️ • Mon coup de cœur d'avril est le roman "Le Secret de la manufacture de chaussettes inusables" de Annie Barrows. Plongés dans la fin des années 30, dans une petite ville provinciale de Virginie, nous suivons Layla Beck, une fille de bonne famille qui refuse le prétendant que son père lui a choisi et se voit confier, en punition, la rédaction d'un ouvrage sur l'histoire de la ville. Willa Romeyn, une petite fille de douze ans, s'attelle en même temps à enquêter sur les secrets de sa famille. A force de questions, Layla et Willa vont bouleverser le fragile équilibre de la petite communauté... • Après son succès avec "Le Cercle littéraire des amateurs d'épluchures de patates", co-écrit avec sa tante Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows se lance en solo dans ce roman qui reprend les ficelles (parfois un peu faciles) de son aîné. Mais si on laisse de côté la fausse romance trop dévoilée et le côté très naïf de certains personnages comme Layla, on passe plutôt un bon moment avec la petite Willa, bien meilleure enquêtrice, dont la profondeur nous emporte plus facilement dans les noirs méandres des secrets de famille. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 • #coupde❤️ #lamanufacturedechaussettesinusables #anniebarrows #anniebarrows_maryannshaffer #barrows #thetruthaccordingtous #editions1018 #1018 #📚 @editions1018 #romanpolicier #romancontemporain #litteraturecontemporaine #bookstagram #book #livre #lecerclelitterairedesamateursdepluchuresdepatates #bookaddict #livraddict #bookobsessed #coupdecoeur #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #roman #maryannshaffer

Bu kitabın, bir zamanlar Nazilerin istilası altında olan Guernsey Adası'nda yaşayan birinin mektubundan ilham alacağını tahmin etmesi mümkün değildir! Üstelik adamla karşılaşmamıştır bile. Mektubun sahibi, Juliet'in adını Charles Lamb'in ikinci el kitabının içinde görmüş ve Juliet'in ona yazarın diğer kitaplarını nerede bulabileceğini söylemesi umuduyla yazmıştır. Juliet, yeni mektup arkadaşıyla yazışırken, kendini onun ve arkadaşlarının dünyasının içinde bulur. Hepsi Guernsey Edebiyat ve Patates Turtası Derneği'nin üyesidir. Bu, hiç beklenmedik bir anda, Almanlardan korunmak amacıyla kurulmuş bir dernektir. Üyelerin her birinin ilgi çekici bir hayat hikâyesi vardır. Juliet bu kez derneğin etkileyici, sevgi dolu üyeleriyle mektuplaşmaya başlar. Kimi çiftçi, kimi frenolog kimi edebiyat sever olan bu insanların mektupları Juliet'e bambaşka bir dünyanın kapılarını açacak, dinlediği hikâyeler belki de hayatını tamamen değiştirecektir.

Book of the month: The Guernsey Literary And The Potato Peel Society by @pallavigurl As this story goes, told in the form of letters in 1946, thirty two year old Juliet Ashton, the writer of the popular Izzy Bickerstaff series and book, is determined to write something different, under her own name, rather than the pseudonym that she has been using. By chance, she gets a letter from a Dawsey Adams, who had seen her name written in the front of a used book that he bought. Dawsey and Juliet start a regular correspondence. Dawsey lives on the island of Guernsey and he tells her of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, of which he is a member. Soon Juliet is writing to other members of this book club and she knows she has found the subject of her next book. This is a beautiful story, full of silent heroes and heroines, doing what they could against impossible odds, to help each other and those who needed even more than they needed to get through the war. And it’s the story of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, invented in the spur of the moment but now a real book club with the most unusual of readers and reviewers. This story is both sad, funny and endearing, with the funny and endearing winning out in the end. #booklover #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #netflixbookclub

"Četla jsem knížku Spolek přátel krásné literatury a bramborových koláčů. A napadlo mě, co kdybychom si založili čtenářský spolek? Jedna moje kolegyně má takový spolek už dvacet let. Je to báječná věc," řekla Zuzka, když přišla v minulém roce na setkání Pralinky. A tak se stalo. V úterý 24. října 2023 ve St. Martinovi na Malé straně v Praze vznikl Čtenářský spolek. 📖 Právě tohle mám na četbě nejraději — stačí, aby Vám v knize padla do oka nějaká drobnost, a ta Vás zavede k jiné knize, ve které se zase najde něco, co Vás zaujme a přivede ke třetí knize, a tak to postupuje geometrickou řadou, konec toho procesu je v nedohlednu a smyslem jeho pokračování je požitek, nic víc.

Anyone who knows me knows that one of my reading rules I have adhered to since I was younger is simply: if a book has been adapted into a movie or TV series, I need to read the book first. That being said, I stumbled across the trailer for “the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society” on Netflix many times. I really wanted to see it but kept telling myself that I had to read the book first. Finally I bought the book, and as I’m sure you can guess, I was not disappointed. Written entirely in letters from and to Juliet Ashton, a writer from London and the people of the island of Guernsey in 1946 after the German Occupation, the book tells the tale of a roast pig, potato peel pie, and a group of people who came together over a love of books during a turbulent time. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up. You won’t regret it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookstagram #lovereading #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #books #netflix

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows 📚📚📚 Summary: January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb. What follows is a series of letters exchanged between Juliet and her new correspondents - the members of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - as she learns about their island, their taste in books, and the impact the recent German occupation has had on their lives. Captivated by their stories, she sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds will change her life forever. 📚📚📚 Review: Words cannot describe how much I love this book. I saw the movie first years ago and, when the opportunity to read the book later on presented itself, I couldn’t get my hands on it fast enough. I’ve just finished my third reread of this book and I love it just as much as I did the first time. It’s heartwarming, funny, witty, and all around delightful. I will always keep this book in my rotation of rereads. 📚📚📚 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5. #bookstagram #reviews #bookstagramreviews #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #booksbooksbooks #readersofinstagram

The Wartime Book Club by Kate Thompson is a truly special and incredible book. The characters are so realistic and endearing. It's set during WWII, in Nazi-occupied Jersey, a channel island which is part of the U.K., but geographically very close to France. It was so exciting to 'visit' this place, Jersey, that I've never been to before, or even knew much about. Before I read this book, I didn't realize how much closer Jersey is to France than England, or that they have their own language, Jèrriais (although English is predominantly spoken there). This book isn't just about the war itself, but what it's really about is standing up to censorship. Books are how these people coped with their bleak existence under occupation, made them forget their troubles and grief for a chapter at a time. "Books are medicine." It's a timely warning and reminder of what can happen when totalitarians take over and steal away our freedoms. You will be rooting for these characters, and grieving their losses. This book is poignant and wonderful, and it will stick with me for a long time. I learned so much and felt so much, too. This is one of my favorite books I've read so far this year. This will for sure my my top reads list of 2024! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed The Little Wartime Library (also by Kate Thompson), The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak, or The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Anne Shaffer and Annie Barrows . Thank you to Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for providing a complimentary copy through NetGalley.

Book : The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society Author: Marie Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows To whomsoever it may concern, 🥰It's been a long time since I devoured an epistolary novel and of-course filled with everything that soothes your soul. ☕The book is like a warm hot chocolate you have on a tired cold night. It's just christmas eve all through the week that you would cherish and still not be enough. 🏝️It's a book with a plot that takes place in the guernsey islands post second world war. Whenever someone asks you a question "What reading a book can give you ?" Throw this book at their face ! ❓What do we learn from this book ? The power of literature, The resilience of the human spirit, The importance of community,The impact of WW2, The power of storytelling. The plot is a little tiresome at places as it is filled with letters and at times we get confused about who is writing to whom?! 📖If I am found dead reading a book , I wish it would be this book . With Love, BookMan ♥️ P.C &E.C : She 🥰 P.S. Have attached my favorite quotes & book recommendations from this book ! #bookstagram #bookrecommendations #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #bookreview #5starread #mustread #literature #loveletter

💌BOOK REVIEW💌 “I don’t want to be married just to be married. I can’t think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I can’t talk to, or worse, someone I can’t be silent with.” I saw a lot of great reviews about this book and many people here on bookstagram recommended it. For some reason, I decided to actually pick it up and read. And I must say I did enjoy this book. The book follows two timelines in Guernsey and England during World War II and post-war. I haven’t read any books set in Guernsey before, that’s why I was extremely interested in this one. As a big fan of snail mail, I really enjoyed this letter format book and the writing style. I honestly loved all the characters in this book and was captivated by their bravery and ability to survive and find some enjoyment even during those dark times. I wasn’t aware of the fact that the island was occupied by German armies throughout the whole war and the islanders had no connection to the outside world. I am glad I read this book and would definitely recommend it. “Reading good books ruins you for enjoying bad books.” 💭Do you like to read historical fiction? What is your favourite period? If not, why not?

It’s 1946. The war is over, and Juliet Ashton has writer’s block. But when she receives a letter from Dawsey Adams of Guernsey - a total stranger living halfway across the Channel, who has come across her name written in a second hand book - she enters into a correspondence with him, and in time with all the members of the extraordinary Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Through their letters, the society tell Juliet about life on the island, their love of books - and the long shadow cast by their time living under German occupation. Drawn into their irresistible world, Juliet sets sail for the island, changing her life forever. 📚🏝️🥔 #BookSelection #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety

"We clung to books and to our friends; they reminded us that we had another part to us" 🌸I am so in love with this story and was incredibly disappointed when I finished it because I didn't want it to end! ⭐This is a story about the German Occupation during WWII on the channel island of Guernsey. It involves the accidental creation of the society named in the book title and how said society brought together a select group of islanders and helped guide them and offer comfort during the occupation. 🌸I love how this book is told entirely in the format of letters sent to and from various characters which I thought was very unusual but worked extremely well. ⭐I can safely say that this is now one of my top favourite books ever ♥️ #books #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #booklover #bookworm #book #readingclub #reading #readingtime #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #literature #worldwar2 #guernsey #ilovereading #bookreview #bookrecommendations

. @lee_readsbooks tagged me to do a #secondhandbookstack and I couldn’t wait to make one. A healthy portion of my books are second hand so I had lots to choose from. But as I was trying to pick out some for this challenge, I decided to pick the ones that turned out to be hidden treasures. The ones I chose without having any idea what they were like or what the authors were like. I was completely blind. And this little stack just blew me away! 📘Anxious People by Fredrik Backman. It sounded interesting and for $5, I thought, “why not””. Fredrik Backman is now one of my very favourite authors. ♥️ 📘The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin. I love everything about this book! 😊 📘No Exit by Taylor Adams. I couldn’t put this book down. It’s the definition of a thriller for me! 😃 📘The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. This historical fiction book is such a little gem of a story! 😊 📘The Sisters Brothers by Patrick deWitt. I bought this book for the cover and I’ve always had a thing for westerns so I was quite enamoured with this book! 🤠 📘The Great Alone by Kristen Hannah. This was my first Kristen Hannah book but definitely not my last. I’ve read a few of her books now, but I think this one will always be my favourite. (the Nightingale is a close second) And that about sums it up! Only tagging a few, but no obligation, and, as always, everyone is welcome to play along! The more, the merrier! 🤓 Hope you’re enjoying the weekend! 🩵🩵🩵 #happyconstantreader #constantreader #secondhandbooks #thriftstorebooks #hiddengems #booklover #bookcollector #booknerd #bookworm #noseinabook #bookstagram #bookstagramchallenges #anxiouspeople #thestoriedlifeofajfikry #noexit #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #thesistersbrothers #thegreatalone

I've been waiting for more than a year to post this picture 😂. I took it immediately after buying the book, but ended up reading it only recently for the West Hunsbury Book Club (no potato peels here, apologies 🤷‍♀️) as this is our April 2024 book. For me The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Society is the 21st book of the year. I didn't really enjoy the letter format in the book although the story was somehow cosy. . . . #westhunsburybookclub #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #americanauthors #fiction #lovestory #bookstagram #neverendingreadinglist

This was my book club pick and I really enjoyed it! It got mixed reviews from the other girls, but I think it was a unique perspective on WWII. And I learned a lot! Swipe for other photos and a full review. There are some great covers for this book! How do you like your potatoes? Boiled? Mashed? Vodka? 🤣 I am a mashed potato connoisseur! Lol it's what I always bring to potlucks and we have them maybe 3 times a week!

~ Revue Littéraire ~ 🥔 Le cercle littéraire des amateurs d’épluchures de patates de Guernesey Je vous l’accorde, le titre n’est pas très racoleur, mais c’est un des meilleurs livres que j’ai pu lire ! 📖 Dans un contexte d’après-guerre, nous suivons Juliet à Londres, écrivaine, et qui reçoit un jour une mystérieuse lettre d’un certain Dawsey Adams, habitant de l’île de Guernesey 🌲 S’ensuivent alors des échanges autour de la littérature mais aussi de la vie de Dawsey et des habitants de l’île durant la guerre, puisque l’île fut occupée par les allemands durant cette période 🕰️ C’est pendant cette occupation que les habitants créent un cercle littéraire. Au fil des lettres, nous découvrons chacun des habitants mais aussi leur histoire, qui nous plonge dans cette époque si sombre… ✉️ Si vous aimez les romans épistolaires, ou même que cela vous est inconnu, ce livre est tout simplement magnifique ! On passe du rire aux larmes, avec des personnages tous plus attachants les uns que les autres 🇬🇧 #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #lecerclelitterairedesamateursdepluchuresdepatates #revuelittéraire #book #englishliterature #litteratureanglaise #ww2 #secondeguerremondiale

🎭 O que falar de Matthew Goode O britânico não tem um nome tão conhecido no cinema, mas seu rosto já foi visto em filmes muito famosos, como Watchmen e O Jogo da Imitação. Aos 45 anos, o ator ainda não possuiu vitórias em premiações, e quase nenhuma indicação. Mas isso não reflete as suas competências diante de uma câmera. Matthew consegue ter um jogo de cintura ótimo para se encaixar em diferentes gêneros. Em ação com The King's Man, em suspense com A Última Noite, em romance com Casa Comigo?... o ator não passa despercebido. É um ator que deveria ser olhado com bons olhos, pois acredito que ele apenas ainda não conseguiu o papel ideal para mostrar todo o seu potencial e ter seu nome escrito em um envelope para levantar uma miniatura dourada. Mas é só questão de tempo. #matthewgoode #kingsman #ojogodaimitação #theimitationgame #watchmen #thekingsman #hollywood #silentnight #aultimanoite #leapyear #casacomigo #asociedadeliterariaeatortadecascadebatata #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety

Available on Netflix A correspondence begins between Juliet Ashton (Lily James) and members of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, with them sharing their experiences of Nazi-occupied Guernsey Island. When an idea for a book catches Juliet, she goes to visit the island, making life-long friends and taking life changing steps along the way. This book is told by way of letters, and as the reader, you become enchanted by the writers of them and the love Juliet comes to feel for each of the Islanders; Dawsey Adams (Michiel Huisman), Amelia Maugery (Dame Penelope Wilton), Isola Pribby (Katherine Parkinson), Eben Ramsey (Sir Tom Courtenay), Kit (Florence Keen), and Elizabeth McKenna (Jessica Brown Findlay). #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #Drama #Romance #War #Movie #MagicWithBrian #ForYou #ForYouPage

🎥 Guernseys litteratur- och potatisskalspajssällskap | ⏱ 118 min | 🌍 Storbritannien, Frankrike, USA Länge har jag haft planer på att se Guernseys litteratur- och potatisskalspajssällskap. Bara titeln gjorde den ju lockande, men jag ville gärna läsa boken först. Boken tog jag med i min Boktolva i år och i början av februari läste jag den äntligen. Sedan, när jag var sjukskriven i en vecka och bara kunde ligga i soffan, så tyckte jag det var lämpligt att se filmen också. Detta är en bok som passar utmärkt att göra om till film. I det stora hela har de gjort det väldigt bra. Lite orättvist så jämförs ju bok och film, oavsett om jag vill det eller ej. Jag är helt klart inte glad i alla ändringar de har gjort. Speciellt inte den med Juliet och hennes relation med Mark. En del av hennes starka personlighet gick förlorad där, tycker jag. Guernseys litteratur- och potatisskalspajssällskap får en fyra i betyg. Jag är helt säker på att det är vad jag hade tyckt om den, om jag inte hade läst boken. Den är mysig, charmig och får mig ändå att må bra. En fin historia, utan tvekan. OBS! Detta är en förkortad text. Hela finns på min blogg. Länken hittar du så klart i min profil. #filmrecension #filmtips #film #guernseyslitteraturochpotatisskalspajssällskap #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #tv4play #moviemonday #monikarecenserar

Currently reading: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. You may remember I watched this movie last year, and was determined to read the book. I had tried in 2019 and quickly gave up due to the letter format. Then, I tried again after watching the movie and still couldn’t get into it. Well, third time is the charm! I’m 70% of the way through this book now! I re-watched the movie last night and had a sudden inspiration to give the book another go. A Sunday well spent. I’m really keen to read more about the German occupation of Guernsey during World War 2….any book recommendations? 🏷️ #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #historicalfiction #guernsey #history #ww2 #kindle #letters #bookstagram #currentlyreading

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows Our next novel introduces us to writer, Juliet Ashton. Juliet became known during WW2 for her comedic works talking about wartime life in England. Now having made a name for herself, she’s looking for a new project. A story present itself to Julia, first in the form of a letter. Dawsey Adams lives on Guernsey island in the English Channel, and enlists Juliet to help him learn more about the author Charles Lamb. Through Dawsey, Juliet learns of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. The group initially formed as a cover to hide an illegal pig roast that they held while under German occupation, but in order to maintain appearances, became a group of truly dedicated readers. In learning about the group, Juliet is introduced to many of its members, and slowly the picture of life on the island during the war begins to form. Apparently the theme of March is accidentally reading WW2 fiction, which as I’ve said many times before, is not my favourite. This, however, I loved. The entire story is presented as a series of letters, which was a really fun and interesting idea. The entire cast of characters is completely endearing, and though at times the content is very dark and heart wrenching, the overall tone of the book is light and quirky. The pacing is perfect, and well balanced in terms of the emotions it elicits. This is just excellent storytelling. If anyone has seen the Netflix adaption, I would be curious to know your thoughts because my expectations are high! #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #maryannshaffer #anniebarrows #2024readinglist #bookclub #bookstagram #bookreview #havingfunisnthardwhenyouvegotalibrarycard
