NEXT BUDDY READ WITH NAT.

The next buddy read with the wonderful Nat K will be THE RED NOTEBOOK by Antoine Laurain. I must admit that I have never heard of it but it sounds very interesting indeed.

Here is the synopsis from goodreads -

Heroic bookseller Laurent Letellier comes across an abandoned handbag on a Parisian street. There's nothing in the bag to indicate who it belongs to, although there's all sorts of other things in it. Laurent feels a strong impulse to find the owner and tries to puzzle together who she might be from the contents of the bag. Especially a red notebook with her jottings, which really makes him want to meet her. Without even a name to go on, and only a few of her possessions to help him, how is he to find one woman in a city of millions?

Antoine Laurain was born in Paris and is a journalist, antiques collector and the author of five novels. The President’s Hat, a charming fable set in the Mitterrand years, was awarded the Prix Landerneau Découvertes and the Prix Relay in 2012 and is published in English by Gallic. It was a Waterstones Book Club book and ABA Indies Introduce pick in 2013. Antoine was chosen to represent France at European Literature Night 2014.

He is also the author of French Rhapsody, The Portrait, Smoking Kills and Vintage, 1954 is coming out in June 2019!

I actually can't wait to get started on this one! :)
