What a fun shopping spree! I don't think I've ever read a Europa Editions book.
ReplyDeleteThose rows of Europa covers look like beautiful wallpaper!
ReplyDeleteChoosing where to start? That's a good problem to have ;)
Tartar Cuisine!! Loved it! Europa has the most beautiful covers, both to look at and touch.
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of one of these books.
ReplyDeleteAll those Europa books look so yummy! The few I've read have been very good.
ReplyDeleteI added every one of them to my wishlist. All of them look so tempting!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all of them :)
My goodness, looks like lots of interesting ones!
ReplyDeleteInteresting that you say the quality is different. What sorts of things are enticing you? The covers look kind of 1970s to me.
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely dilemma! what to read first!!! enjoy.
ReplyDeleteDid you just hit a major JACKPOT!???
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh those covers are beautiful - very worthy of a place on the bookshelves. See the note is bookshelves since one would not do ;)
OOOH! Jane Gardam!! I love her work! Take my advice...
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your reviews. I read Gourmet Rhapsody and need to finish The Elegance of the Hedgehog
ReplyDeleteWish I could help, but have never heard of any of these books. Am very much, therefore, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on them--maybe I'm on the brink of discovering a whole new reading niche for me!
ReplyDeleteMargherita Dolce Vita!! I love that one!!!
ReplyDeleteI do love the quality of these books. There are so many I want to read from it's collection. I do have Broken Glass Park though.

I have a backlog of Europa Editions to read as well! Enjoy your books.
ReplyDeleteI am always excited when I see a list of books like this. It is also a lot of fun to check out all the links. Thanks for another lovely post and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYep, you really did go wild..love it!! Looks like you're going to have to play eeny, meeny, miny, moe!!
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you, these books are always so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of these books or Europa. What is the attraction? What makes them special to you? The covers are very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBree, regarding the Europas -- many are translated works from European authors. They are really fine literary novels, and just different from some of the run of the mill novels that are often published in the US. The books have the inside cover flap which is great to mark the page, and the looks of these books are terrific as well.
ReplyDeleteI am SO jealous!!!
ReplyDeleteI love just looking at the Europa books you bought! The covers are just great. I hope you're enjoying them!
