Well Seasoned Reader Challnge

Well-Seasoned Reader Challenge.
Rule #1: The challenge runs from January 1 to March 31. (No cheating and starting before!)
Rule #2: You must read three books. After that, it's up to you how much you want to read.
Rule #3: The books must:
have a food name in the titleORbe about cooking/eatingORhave a place name in the titleORbe about one (or more) person's travel experienceORbe about a specific cultureORbe by an author whose ethnicity is other than your own (see, I squeezed it in!)

I'll leave it up to you to choose how the three books you read fit the criteria.

Rule #4: They must be middle-grade on up, but can be either fiction or non-fiction.The purpose, this winter, is to take yourself someplace out of the ordinary, to go on a literary trip, whether that be challenging your expectations, discovering a new place, or enjoying the experience of reading about good food, places, and people.

My Choices

1) Someone’s Travel Experiences- Extra Virgin: Amongst the Olive Groves of Liguria by Annie Hawes

2) Cooking/ Eating (I hope drink can be included) Cider with Rosier by Laurie Lee

3) Place name in the title- Espresso Tales: The Latest from 44 Scotland Street by Alexander McCall Smith
