Linking up with Wishful Endings today :)
Every week, I skim through the "Coming Soon" list at Barnes and Noble for the following week.
I love looking at the covers and selecting finalists for my upcoming favorites.
Yes, I'm a book nerd.
If I find a cover that interests me, then I open it up and read the blurb...there are way too many books to read for me to waste one more second, so a book has to grab me...where I am in that moment.
And most of the time, I can't even predict what that moment looks like.
It's up to the book really ;)
I force myself to stop at 1 choice.
1
That's it.
Without further adieu, here's my Can't Wait choice among the "Coming Soon" selections on Barnes and Noble for the week of Nov. 6, 2017:

Here's the synopsis from Barnes and Noble:
(I've highlighted in red the parts that yell at me loud and clear that I must read this book!)
L'Appart: The Delights and Disasters of Making My Paris Home
by David Lebovitz
Bestselling author and world-renowned chef David Lebovitz continues to mine the rich subject of his evolving ex-Pat life in Paris, using his perplexing experiences in apartment renovation as a launching point for stories about French culture, food, and what it means to revamp one's life. Includes dozens of new recipes.
When David Lebovitz began the project of updating his apartment in his adopted home city, he never imagined he would encounter so much inexplicable red tape while contending with the famously inconsistent European work ethic and hours. Lebovitz maintains his distinctive sense of humor with the help of his partner Romain, peppering this renovation story with recipes from his Paris kitchen. In the midst of it all, he reveals the adventure that accompanies carving out a place for yourself in a foreign country—under baffling conditions—while never losing sight of the magic that inspired him to move to the City of Light many years ago, and to truly make his home there.
I'm a sucker for a book about "HOME."
What do you think?
